VM-C7200/C7100 Newly Added Functions
3. Control the gain and phantom power on/off in the same
manner as for the [INPUT].
* PAD on the ADA-7000 is automatically switched on/off
according to the gain setting.
How to connect the AE-7000 and
the VM-7000 series
To connect the VM-7200/7100 and the AE-7000 via R-BUS,
VM-24E I/O Expansion Board (sold separately) is needed.
By installing the VM-24E to the VM-7200/7100 processor,
you can connect up to three AE-7000’s.
* Refer to VM-7200/7100 Owner’s Manual p. 14 “Installing
R-BUS (RMDB2) Connectors (VM-24E).”
AE-7000 does not have the sample rate converter.
All the digital signal input into multiple AE-7000’s connected
to the VM-7200/7100 must be synchronized with sample
clock accuracy. To synchronize two digital devices with
sample clock accuracy, you need to use word clock signal or
digital audio signal.
Connection
Connect the VM-7200/7100 and the AE-7000 with the R-BUS
cable attached in the AE-7000 box.
* Refer to the AE-7000 Owner’s Manual p. 8 “An Example of
Connection.”
Booting up
AE-7000 works with the power supplied via R-BUS. Turn the
power on the VM-7200/7100 processor, and the power is
supplied to the AE-7000. Then finally turn on the
VM-C7200/C7100 console.
Clock source setting
If clock source has not been set, noise may be generated from
the audio output on the AE-7000 and the VM-7000. While
setting the clock source, please turn down the master and
monitor level, and turn up again after the setting is finished.
Clock source setting varies depending on the AES/EBU
devices connected to the AE-7000 and other condition. Please
set as follows.
Example 1
• If AES/EBU device is synchronized to the word clock
from the VM-7000, or to the AES/EBU signal from the
AE-7000
• If AES/EBU input on the AE-7000 is not used, and only
output is used
• Set the sampling clock on the AE-7000 and the VM-7000
as follows.
Clock Source on the AE-7000
connected to the R-BUS (1–8):...................................R-BUS
Clock Source on the AE-7000
connected to the R-BUS (9–16):.................................R-BUS
Clock Source on the AE-7000
connected to the R-BUS (17–24):...............................R-BUS
Master clock on the VM-7000: ................................INTERNAL
==AE-7000 setting==
Check if the clock source on the AE-7000 is set to R-BUS.
When the AE-7000 is booted up, the clock source is set to R-
BUS. If you connect multiple AE-7000’s, set the clock source
on all AE-7000’s to R-BUS.
* Refer to AE-7000 Owner’s Manual p. 5 “Clock source Select.”
==VM-7000 setting==
Set the master clock of the VM-7200/7100 to INTERNAL as
follows.
1. Hold down [SHIFT], and press [SYSTEM] (PROJECT).
2. Press [DOWN] cursor, then press [F1] (DIGITAL I/O).
3. Select “WORD CLOCK SOURCE,” and set it to
INTERNAL with V1 knob, then press [F1] (SET) to
activate the result.
* Refer to VM-C7200/C7100 Owner’s Manual p. 32 “Checking
the overall system.”
Example 2
• If AES/EBU device outputs the word clock
Connect the word clock of the AES/EBU device to the
VM-7200/7100.
