Introduction; The Soundlink Drs Product Line - Korg SoundLink DRS 1212 I/O Owner's Manual

Introduction

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the SoundLink DRS
1212 I/O PCI Multi-Channel Audio Interface card.
The 1212 I/O features ADAT optical input and output, S/PDIF input and
output, and stereo analog input and output, all of which can be used
simultaneously (with compatible software). An ADAT sync input allows
software applications to synchronize directly to ADAT timecode, without
need for external devices. Word clock input and output allow integration of
the 1212 I/O into complex digital audio environments. The internal DSP
processor allows format conversion between S/PDIF and ADAT channels.
The 1212 I/O is supported by a variety of digital audio software on both
MacOS and Windows 95; it is also compatible with Sound Manager on the
MacOS, and can appear as multiple wave devices under Windows 95.

The SoundLink DRS Product Line

The 1212 I/O is a component of the SoundLink DRS product line.
SoundLink DRS, developed by Korg Professional Audio, is a collection of
recording components designed to work together as a complete system or
independently with other recording equipment.
The centerpiece of the DRS line is the 168RC Recording Console. The
168RC is a fully digital recording console with a total of 24 input and 22
output interfaces in a combination of analog, ADAT optical and S/PDIF
formats.
SoundLink DRS also offers the 880 A/D and 880 D/A Audio Interfaces,
which can be used to expand the analog inputs and outputs of the 168RC
and 1212 I/O via ADAT optical cables. Each audio interface is an eight
channel device, and offers additional flexibility thanks to routing selection
and ADAT Thru provisions.
One of the most important pieces of equipment in the signal path is the
monitor amplifier. SoundLink DRS offers the RMA240 Monitor Amplifier
to maintain the integrity of your system. Its simple design philosophy
offers a clean and quiet signal, yet includes all the necessary features to
make the RMA240 flexible enough to fit within any system.
All SoundLink DRS products are designed and built with the goal of
helping you make better recordings. Through the use of advanced digital
technology, custom designed DSP processors and flexible interfacing
capabilities, Sound Link DRS products bring the reality of completely
digital, fully automated, component based recording systems to everyone
working on that next great recording.
