4.3. Input and Return channel configuration
The system is designed with maximum flexibility in mind: The direction of data transmission can be selected
individually for each ADAT connection. Thus, the ADX-32B can be operated in 32/0, 24/8, 16/16, 8/24 or 0/32
TX/RX channel configuration, and the ADX-64B-PRO can be configured to 64/0, 56/8, 48/16 etc. to 0/64 of TX/RX
channels.
4.4. Daisy-chaining
For audio distribution to several places, up to 32 ADAT Multicore Extenders can be daisy-chained together. This
feature can be used for complex setups, e.g. multi-room audio distribution or the connection of additional
monitoring equipment. Each signal input can be located at an arbitrary ADX device in the chain, and is then
distributed to all other ADX devices. This allows very flexible setups for recording and monitoring.
