Multichannel ADC Mixing
Chart
This chart shows how all inputs
can be level adjusted and
mixed into any number of output
channels. The default is a one-to-
one mapping.
You can actually output different
mixes at the same time using the
mixing feature.
The MSB PRO I2S Network
One of the most powerful features of MSB products is the PRO I2S
network. Most new MSB products have a PRO I2S connection available.
The MSB PRO I2S has the following capability:
•
Works with standard CAT6 cable
•
Simultaneous transmission of 8 audio channels with 32 bit
resolution at 384 kHz sampling rate.
•
MSB CAN Interbox communication Bus (for communications
between boxes)
•
Low Jitter master clock distribution from the DAC back to the
Transport.
This network is our answer to 384 kHz audio transmission and
multichannel transmission in the same package. We provide network
outputs on our own transports and offer a source upgrade to your
transport as well. With multichannel sources, up to 8 channels of
decoded data can be sent through one wire to separate DACs. CAT6
wire is very convenient as it has become the standard for all computer
networks. Several cables are available for connecting MSB transports
to the Platinum Line including CAT6 cable at any length up to 80 feet.
(Do not use CAT7 cable.)

can never be accomplished at this quality level again. So for
each digital output channel, you scroll through both analog inputs
and set:
Output Level - This analog input is adjusted from +24 to -181 dB.
Downmix - Downmix or do not downmix this input.
Level Meter
The output meter is shown on the display. It's a dual bar graph.
One shows the average level and the other shows the peak level.
Each line represents 2dB. It will display from 0dB to I think
-32dB. It shows all the input channels at the same time.
