Every program that uses KDFX has a studio assigned to it. The studio deÞnes the KDFX
parameters for the program to which itÕs assigned.

Using the Optional Digital Outputs

Digital audio output is available for K2600s that have either the sampling option or the
digital I/O option. Each option gives you different possibilities for digital output conÞguration.
The sampling option provides 16-bit stereo digital output, via coaxial (XLR) or optical output
jacks that are supplied with the sampling option. The output is routed through the samplerÕs
analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The stereo digital out carries either the K2600Õs analog Mix
output, or an external analog signal converted to digital. You can choose either SPDIF or AES/
EBU format for the output. You can set the output sample rate at 48, 44.1, 32, or 29.6 KHz, or you
can slave the K2600 to an external clock via one of the stereo digital inputs. These inputs also
enable you to sample digital signals, as described on page 14-8.
The digital I/O option provides 16- or 20-bit eight-channel digital output in KurzweilÕs
proprietary KDS format, via a serial port supplied with the digital I/O option. YouÕll need to
connect a Kurzweil DMTi or other KDS-compatible device to the serial port. The digital I/O
option also provides direct stereo digital output (optical or coaxial).
With the digital I/O option, the output sample rate is Þxed at 48 KHz. The digital I/O option
also provides eight channels of KDS-format digital input, which you can route into VAST
programs. See Playback Mode on page 6-26.
If your K2600 has both the sampling option and the digital I/O option, you can route the signal
to the stereo digital outputs either through the sampler, or directly.
