Word Clock; Tape Ports; S/Pdif Input - SoundCraft 328 XD Connecting Manual

328XD CONFIGURATION
Wordclock
To configure the 328XD as the wordclock master, enter the 328XD Menu pages by pressing the
<MENU> button on the right hand side of the LCD display. Using the PARAM encoder beneath the
display, scroll up or down until the 'Clock Source Sel' menu is highlighted, and press <ENTER>. Here,
either the internal 44.1kHz clock or the internal 48kHz clock must be selected, depending on the
sampling rate at which work is to be carried out. Press <MENU> to return to the menu pages.

Tape Ports

To ensure that the 328XD Tape Ports are set to ADAT to work with the Lexicon Studio LDI-12T, enter the
328XD Menu pages by pressing the <MENU> button on the right hand side of the LCD display. Using
the PARAM encoder beneath the display, scroll up or down until the 'Tape Port Select' menu is
highlighted. Press <ENTER> and press the Up cursor key until the '<Tape Ch17-24 >' menu page is
displayed. Using the PARAM encoder set the Bank Source to ADAT.
Press the Down cursor key once to set the wordlength. The Lexicon Studio LDI-12T is capable of 24-bit
recording, and so for optimum results, 24-bit wordlength can be selected here. If your audio sequencer
software does not allow 24-bit recording, 20-bit or 16-bit should be selected. The sequencer manuals
should be consulted for further information. The wordlength is set on the 328XD with the PARAM
encoder. Press <MENU> to return to the menu pages.

S/PDIF Input

The 328XD S/PDIF input can be routed to any one of the following inputs:
Stereo Input 1;
` Stereo Input 2;
FX Return 1;
FX Return 2;
2 Track Tape Return,
provided that the 328XD AES/EBU input or internal osciallator has not already been assigned to that
input. Commonly the Lexicon Studio LDI-12T S/PDIF output would best be routed to a Stereo Input or
the 2 Track Tape Return input.
