![]() ![]() That’s because this is the place that the digital signal is created and you want it to be as accurate a digital representation as possible of your analog input of a great performance. Here’s my reason: The A/D converter is the place where you truly want the most consistent, accurate clock with minimal variation. And similarly, I always hope that the device where the A/D conversion will take place will have that best clock. Hey Sanfu, I’m just going to throw in my 2 cents here for consideration.įWIW, I always use the input device with the best internal clock as the master. It's hilarious, when you try to wrap your head around the sheer possibilities this piece of tech offers.Ĭheers guys, have great rest of the week! I can't believe they sold it for 2.5k Euros back in the day, where other mixers with the same backpack of flexibility and quality almost cost double or thrice! For all it is, the DM is killer, and as I said, I was desperate enough to buy a second unit, when I had the chance to get my hands on one for less than 700 Euros. I know, I said this many times before, but.: I am amazed at how much you will find about the DM-series when you really dig into it. A lot of technical details came just the last minute (my music pc being too old, had to be replaced, the need for an extra mic pre-amp (which then offered more flexibility, but only with toslink connection) and so forth). Very much appreciated! I am in the final steps of finishing my studio, and it was quiet a ride. Like so many times before, Arjan: Thanks a lot for your in depth explanation. ![]() P.S.: still unsure about the questions in my second post Well my studio is build around the DM for the time being, and I stored a second one I got very cheap, just in case, you know.Īnyway: from this perspective the DM seems much more attractive as master, since it's conserved for all eternity in a state as is. Well, last night it appeared to me, as if using the DAW as wordclock master, might not be too good of a decision, since software changes over time and hence is often optimised for the newest hardware only. I guess I am putting too much thought into this. ![]() The more I think about it, the more it makes sense to make my DM the master - it's like my audio card/interface in one go, so I guess it kinda makes sense? On the other hand, everything ends in the PC, so maybe my DAW should be wordclock master. Thanks mjk, so in essence, whenever I use a BNC, I should (if not needed) terminate the remaining BNC-port with a termination plug? I'd like the DM to be the master in ths whole scenario - I think, this makes the most sense, since it is also my audio interface to the digital realm. I am unsure how this all comes together, and if I really want to touch that switch. So, well, I guess I should switch it to on, but then again, I couldn't find any digital audio devices that would recommend anything else but 75 Ohms cables, so.maybe I misunderstand something here, but shouldn't the default be "on"? The problem is: the Focusrite manual demands 75 Ohms BNC cable, whereas the DM3200 has a switch on the rear with which you can activate/deactivate 75 Ohms. But just recently I got an Focusrite OctoPre, and it gives me 8 inputs/outputs which I can send via Toslink directly to my DAW (as a digital copy, if you will). Well, I never used any digital gadgets, other than the Dm itself. The DM-3200 is receiving word sync signals, as wellĪs enabling and disabling 75Ω termination on the The switch allows the OUT to act as a THRU when (set up in software-see “Clock setting” on page 44). "The DM-3200 can act as a word sync master or slave Lately, I've done some digging in the depths of my DM3200 manual, and found this on page 43: ![]()
