MODEL NUMBER DPS24

The rear panel has a comprehensive selection of connectors to interface the DPS24 with a wide range of analogue
and digital equipment. These are:
1 INPUTS - BANK A
Across the top of the rear panel are the two banks of analogue inputs. The top row (Bank A) are balanced inputs
on XLR/TRS jack combos. These can accommodate XLR connectors or TRS (tip: Hot, ring: Cold, sleeve: Gnd)
1/4" jack plugs.
2 INPUTS - BANK B
The second row of inputs (Bank B) are TRS jacks that can accommodate balanced inputs.
Banks A and B are switched from the front using the switches across the top of the panel
3 CHANNEL INSERT SENDS/DIRECT OUT
4 CHANNEL INSERT RETURNS/ADC INPUTS
Inputs 1-4 also feature balanced insert points allowing you to patch in professional external processors such as
noise gates, compressors, etc. Although each channel of the DPS24 has a compressor/gate, you may want to use
external valve units or other devices.
The channel insert sends (3) can also be used as balanced direct outputs and the channel insert returns (4) can also
be used to accept external pre-amps or 19" 'channel strips' therefore bypassing the internal pre-amps on the
DPS24 for these channels.
5 SCSI CONNECTOR OPTION
The optional SCSI connector may be installed here allowing you to connect external SCSI drives to the DPS24.
6 DIGITAL I/O
These RCA phono connectors offer SPDIF digital audio input and output. The input is freely assignable to chan-
nels within the DPS24 and the output can accept a wide variety of internal audio sources (the default is the master
stereo L/R output).
7 MULTI-PURPOSE LIGHT PIPE I/O
These optical connectors are configured to carry 8-channel ADAT™ digital input/output.
8 AUXILLIARY SENDS 1-4
AUX SENDS 1-4 default to being output here for use with external effects processors. However, it is possible
to patch other audio sources to appear at these outputs if you wish.
9 WORDCLOCK I/O
When wordclock is selected as the sync source, this BNC is set to receive wordclock. At all other times, this BNC
is set to generate wordclock.
J MIDI IN/OUT/THRU
The MIDI IN connection can accept MIDI Time Code and MIDI clock for synchronising to external equipment
such as sequencers.
