Block Diagram - TC Electronic FINALIZER Service Manual

Block Diagram:

The block diagram in figure 7 gives a quick view of the signal flow in the Finalizer.
As the block diagram shows the input and output sections will always be active, even in Bypass mode.
The AES/EBU and the SPDIF inputs are connected internally. Therefore, do not connect cables to both AES/EBU and the SPDIF inputs at the same time.
Signals are present on all outputs, all of the time. To make dithering circuit work, the system must know whether the analog or AES/EBU or SPDIF output is main output.
