Ausstattung & technische Daten
| Description | |
| Digital Audio Input Expander | |
| iDR D-in is an add-on digital audio expander for the iDR-4 and iDR-8 audio mix processors. | |
| It provides AES3 and SPDIF format digital audio inputs to add to the analogue audio connections on the main unit. | |
| The iDR D-in has 8 inputs arranged as 4 pairs. Either the AES3 (XLR) or the SPDIF (RCA phono) input may be selected for each pair. | |
| Only one input and one output expander may be added to the iDR system bringing it up to a maximum 16×16 audio matrix. | |
| This may be any combination of the analogue and digital expanders available for the iDR system. | |
| These units do not have any processing built in. | |
| They simply convert the AES3 and SPDIF formats to work with the 8 channel wide iDR digital bus which feeds the main unit via a CAT5 STP cable. | |
| The processing and mixing is handled by the main iDR-4 or iDR-8 unit which features the full 16×16 DSP matrix. | |
| iDR System Manager software is used to select either the AES3 or the SPDIF connection for each expander input pair. | |
| iDR D-in has 8 front panel LEDs in addition to the 3 status indicators. These are 3-colour soft LEDs which can be assigned as audio meters, mute indicators or patch related indicators. | |
| They are programmed in the usual way using the iDR System Manager software. | |
| Control of the expanders is via the DR-Link port using a CAT5 STP cable. | |
| This means that two CAT5 cables are required to interconnect an expander to the main unit. | |
| Maximum distance between the units is 250 metres. | |
| iDR D-in can be rack mounted or free standing. | |
| There are no user controls on the front panel, only the status and assignable LEDs. | |
