Channels available after adding AD card to 192 I/O
 

Hello, I'm waiting on the arrival of a Digidesign 8 channel AD card for install in 192 I/O's extra slot. Other than this, this is a stock 192 I/O. Once installed, I realize I will have 16 AD inputs and 8 DA outputs. The 8 channel AES card will remain installed. Can I still use the 8 AES Ins/Outs of the card or will I need to "share" the inputs with the 16 analog inputs?

Thanks in advance!

Yes. No matter what cards are installed, you are limited to a total of 16 ins and outs(in any combination of available ports). So, it could be 16 analog inputs, 8 analog outputs and 8 digital outputs(on AES or Optical). Opening the Hardware setup page will show you all the available routing options. Once you have assigned as you need, go to Setup>IO and set up your routing:D

What you need to understand is the DigiLink cable provides the box 16 ins and outs and you cannot change that. On the hardware setup you can choose which physical i/o you want to route there.

Another 16 ins and outs are reserved for the expansion box.

Ok thanks for the info!

I received and installed the AD card yesterday and tried it. Everything seems fine except I'm trying to utilize channels 7/8 of the AES's card's I/O on channels 15/16. I've got AES 7/8 connected to a PCM 81. The PCM is receiving signal but signal is not being returned to channels A15/16. I. It's have something configured wrong in either Setup or the I/O menu.

Any suggestions would be great!

Since you are feeding the Lex with AES, why not take the return FROM the Lex on AES? Just wondering if setting the Lex to use digital IN, might also be forcing it to use digital OUT as well:o

I am. That's what the problem I'm having. It's not returning into the channels set in Pro Tools 7/8(A15/16)
