This document explains how to install an I/O Option Board into a Kurzweil KSP8. The following I/O Option
boards are available for the KSP8:
Analog I/O Option Board
ADAT–TDIF I/O Option Board
AES I/O Option Board
mLAN (Firewire) I/O Option Board
These options are user-installable; no special expertise or special tools are required. Furthermore, the installation
procedure is the same for all the option boards. Usage instructions for the individual options are provided at the
end of this document.
IMPORTANT: The I/O option boards are not hot-swappable. You must turn off the KSP8 before you add or
remove an I/O option board.
Before Beginning the Installation
You should back up any objects (presets, chains, or studios) that you have created. You can either save the objects
to a SmartMedia card or dump the objects via MIDI using a SysEx dump. Refer to Chapter 10 of the KSP8 User's
Guide for information on these procedures.
Tools Required For Installation
#2 Phillips screwdriver
You will need access to the back panel of the KSP8.
Installation
1. Turn the unit off, then unplug all cables from the KSP8.
2. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws attaching the option slot cover plate to the
back panel of the KSP8. Set the screws aside so that you can use them to attach the option board.
The option slot cover plate is shown in Figure 1.

  • Page 11 Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8) Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8) The AES I/O Option adds four stereo input/output pairs to your KSP8. This option requires that the software revision level on your KSP8 be 1.7 or higher. The most current KSP8 software is provided on a SmartMedia card included with this option.
  • Page 12 Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8) Studio Configuration Files For your convenience, a configuration file named AESnn.KSP is provided on the included SmartMedia card. This file contains a subset of the base KSP8 studios with the appropriate input selections made, as well as a Master table that sets the Clock Source parameter to Option AES.
  • Page 13 Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8) Pinout for AES/EBU Connector The KSP8 AES Option uses a single DB-25 connector to provide four stereo input and output channels. While different manufacturers have used different standards in the pin assignments of these connectors for AES/EBU, the KSP8 employs the pinout used by the TASCAM DB-25 balanced connector.
  • Page 14: Cable Requirements

    Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8) Cable Requirements Cables for connecting the KSP8 AES Option should be constructed from shielded twisted-pair wiring with a nominal impedance of 110 ohms. The ground pins on each end of the cable connect to shields. The most common cable types are described below: DB-25 to 8 XLRs •...
  • Page 15 Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8) DB-25 to DB-25 AES cable (male-to-male) with KSP8-type pinouts • This cable will have pinouts as shown in Table 1 for connection to any device that uses the same AES pinout as the KSP8, for example, the Panasonic DA7 digital mixer. Since the pinout is the same on each end of this cable, it must be wired in a crossover configuration, as shown in Table 2.
