YGDAI Cards

About the YGDAI System
The YGDAI (Yamaha General Digital Audio Interface) system and optional YGDAI
interface cards provide digital I/O support for several industry standard digital audio
formats and protocols. Using a YGDAI card, the 03D's bus, aux, and input channel sig-
nals 1–16 can be output to other digital audio equipment, including digital multitrack
recorders. The following YGDAI cards are available.
CD8-AT ADAT Card
The CD8-AT ADAT interface card is used to connect an 8-track ADAT MultiChannel
Optical Interface compatible digital multitrack recorder, such as the Alesis ADAT, Alesis
ADATxt, or Fostex RD-8.
CD8-TDII Tascam Card
The CD8-TDII interface card is used to connect an 8-track Tascam Digital Audio Inter-
face (TDIF-1) compatible digital multitrack recorder, such as the Tascam DA-88 or
DA-38.
CD8-AE-S AES/EBU Card
The CD8-AE-S interface card is used to connect digital audio equipment with
AES/EBU digital I/O. Connection is via a 25-pin D-sub connector.
CD8-Y Yamaha Card
The CD8-Y interface card is used to connect equipment featuring Yamaha format
multi-channel connections.
CD8-CS Cascade Card
The CD8-CS Cascade card is used to cascade two 03Ds together to expand the number
of inputs. The CD8-CS Kit contains two CD8-CS interface cards and a cascade cable.
See Cascading the 03D on page 227 for more information.

YGDAI Digital Inputs
The eight YGDAI digital inputs work as inputs for input channels 17 through 24, and
cannot be reconfigured. See Input Channel Overview on page 36 for more information.
Emphasis
When a digital audio signal containing emphasis is connected to a YGDAI digital input,
the 03D automatically detects it and de-emphasizes as necessary. Once a signal has been
de-emphasized, it's processed and output by the 03D without emphasis. The 03D can-
not apply emphasis to digital output signals.
