1x6 AES/EBU Audio Distribution
The AardDDA is a 1x6 AES/EBU audio
distribution amp that helps you avoid impedance
mismatches, clock jitter & signal dropouts, and in
general will make your digital life worry free.
Combining the standard 1x6 AES/EBU I/O with
the optional S/PDIF adapters, you can configure the
input and the 6 outputs to perfectly match your setup.
For example: S/PDIF input, 4 AES/EBU & 2 S/PDIF outputs.
Or an AES/EBU input, 1 AES/EBU & 5 S/PDIF outputs.
AardDDA lets you easily interface any number of consumer
and professional pieces of equipment easily and efficiently. The AardDDA can also distribute AES/EBU or S/PDIF sync ensuring
worry-free digital audio and digital sync distribution. And since the AardDDA's transformer isolated outputs are also indi-
vidually buffered you can not only distribute a clean digital audio signal to different devices, but over longer distances as well.
◆ 1 x 6 digital audio distribution
◆ 6 individually buffered digital XLR
(AES/EBU) outputs
◆ Filters out ground loop noise
◆ Channel Status: Source channel status is
echoed
◆ No re-clocking.
◆ Optional S/PDIF I/O adapter available
SYNC
DA
Word Clock Distribution
Because only one clock source can be the master clock at any given
time in the digital studio, problems can occur when multiple
digital devices are synced or “daisy-chained” together. The Sync
DA solves this by providing 6 additional Word Clock outputs from
a single clock source. It allows any digital device, such as the
AardSync II master clock or a digital mixer to be the master clock
in any given situation.
The Sync DA feeds Word Clock on 6 BNC outputs, allowing each
piece of connected digital equipment to receive a separate feed and
be in sync with the master clock device. Two of the outputs can be
configured to SuperClock 256, if the Sync DA is receiving an
AES/EBU input. The SyncDA is a great way to expand the AardSync II’s outputs, allowing larger digital audio studios to
take advantage of its superior clocking technology.
