S5 Fusion Digital Audio Mixing System - InDepth
30
Internally, S5 Fusion uses MADI to route and patch digital au-
dio. MADI is a very stable and robust AES sanctioned format
thatallowsupto64channelsofdigitalaudio(at24-bit,48kHz)
along a single coax cable.
TointerfacetoanalogandotherdigitalformatssuchasAES/
EBU,Euphonixprovidesafullrangeofhighqualityconvertersin
multi-channel, 19” rack mounting cases. The standard S% Fu-
sionpackageincludesanMA703foranalogmonitorfeeds.
Allsignals suchasAuxsends,mix minus/groupoutputs, mix
outputs, channel inputs, inserts and dynamic key inputs are
MADIandrequiretheEuphonixconvertersforanalogorAES/
EBUconnection. CommercialMADI convertersare alsoavail-
able including PCI cards for connecting MADI into and out of
PCs.
Because the system is modular, it is easy to start working with
the S5 Fusion in an analog environment and then add digital
converters in future as more of the facility’s sources move to
digital.
