Things to Know about Routing

When you are ready, see The Comprehensive Input / Output Scheme for more details. Until then …

The effects engine (the DSP section) of the H8000FW has eight inputs and outputs

Only 8 inputs can be connected to the effects engine

Only 8 outputs can be connected from the effects engine

The analog inputs can only be used as input channels 1-4 (7-8 on H8000)

The analog outputs are always connected as output channels 1-4 (7-8 on H8000)

The AES XLR inputs can only be used as input channels 5-8 (1-8 on H8000)

The AES XLR outputs are always connected as output channels 5-8 (1-8 on H8000)

S/P DIF 1/2 in can replace AES 1/2 in

S/P DIF 1/2 out is driven with the same signal as AES 1/2 out

ADAT out can be fed from the effects engine or from the ADAT inputs

In addition, for the H8000FW

S/P DIF 3/4 in can replace AES 11/12 in

S/P DIF 3/4 out is driven with the same signal as AES 11/12 out

ADAT1-8 out can be fed from the effects engine or from the ADAT, AES11-18 or FireWire inputs

AES11-18 out can be fed from the effects engine or from the ADAT, AES11-18 or FireWire inputs

FireWire outputs can be fed from the effects engine or from the ADAT or AES1118 inputs

FireWire outputs can not be fed directly from FireWire inputs
