IMPORTANT: (From Howy)
To avoid ground loops and RFI, insure all equipment is connected by 16+AWG power and ground wiring.

Timecode

A full-featured SMPTE timecode interface is standard. All common frame-rates and timecode sampling-rates are
supported. In addition, the Nomad includes the auto-load function, allowing the unit to automatically enter Record
and Stop modes based on incoming timecode. Be aware, the Nomad's timecode clock continues to run, with
reduced accuracy, after the power is turned 'OFF'.

Input Sampling-rate Conversion

The Nomad will accept any unlocked AES signal with a sampling-rate of 44.1 to 96 kHz. The dynamic range of the
sample-rate conversion is 124 dB, offering completely transparent conversion of digital audio from one sample-rate
to another.

Sequence of Nomad Components

To better aid the user in using and understanding his Nomad recorder, the following list describes the Analog to
Analog sequence for each component that sees your audio:
1. Input connector
2. Input Limiter
3. Input Gain
4. Analog-to-Digital Converter
5. Prefader Meter
6. Input Compressor
7. Delay Processor
8. Equalization Processor
9. Linear Fader
10. Digital Input Router
11. Disk Limiter
12. Input Meter
13. Home Meter
14. Recorder Track
15. Digital Output Router
16. Output Fader
17. Output Limiter
18. Output Meter
19. Digital-to-Analog Converter
20. Output Connector
Obviously, a digital input or output is going to follow the same sequence, bypassing the analog input or output
portion (highlighted), as appropriate.
