Separate Analog and Digital Outputs

The K2661's separate analog outputs (two pairs: A and B) are wired in parallel and are "live" at
all times. So are the eight digital outputs (four stereo pairs) available in ADAT format at the
ADAT/AES optical jack. Also available at the ADAT/AES Out jack is a single stereo pair
(output A) in AES/EBU or S/PDIF format. The parameters on the OUTPUT page affect both the
separate analog and digital outputs.

Analog Mix Output

The K2661's analog Mix output combines output pairs A and B into a single stereo analog pair.
Each of the analog outputs, A and B, carries the signal from the KDFX bus specified for each
output pair on the OUTPUT page of the Studio Editor. The signal at the Mix output always
carries the summed signal of outputs A and B; connecting cables to Outputs A and B does not
remove the corresponding portion of the signal from the Mix outputs.

Digital Output

Digital output is always available at the ADAT/AES Out optical jack, in ADAT 8-channel format
or in AES 2-channel format. Both AES/EBU Pro and Consumer (S/PDIF) formats are supported.
You may also choose a digital word length to match the resolution of your other digital
equipment: 16, 20, or 24 bits. The choice of digital output format and digital word length is
made on the second Master Page menu. See Digital Output Format on page 11-11 for details.
