Question on SC48 Remote Config

[Tragic Dog]

Hey guys, I'm working out a config for a new sc48 system, and had some questions.

I know the remote rack aren't out yet...

What I'm looking at is a two rack sc48.

Rack 1 would have all input modules. 3 AI16s giving me 48 mic inputs

Rack 2 would have 1 A-Net card and 1 AO16.

Then in the desk itself would be the AVB Ethernet card and 1 IO16 (to handle the local I/O.

So the question is. Would this configuration work? or am I off the rails a bit.

it's my understanding that the AVB Ethernet card will support two racks. Is this correct?

Sounds like a very nice setup and all should work as you are within specs of 48 pres, 32 outputs + IO16.

Now if we only could exchange these DSP's in there for HDX

[Tragic Dog]

yeah, HDx on the venue would be amazing. as they are just cards shouldn't be too long before that's a possibility. (yes, I know it's more than just changing out cards)

Sheldon, if you catch this post, any idea if this config will work? since the 3.0 OLE isn't out yet, I can't see if it will let me build it. :)

Hi John,

Sorry for the delayed response.

Yes, the config will work. Any combination of local and remote "stage" I/O, to a maximum of 48 mic pres and 32 outputs is supported. In addition, if Option slot E in the console is available, you an add the IO16 card, for even more I/O.

Fully loaded, this gives:
+ 48 mic pres (AI16 cards)
+ 32 outputs (AO16 line output card, AT16 A-Net card, or XO16 combo line/AES + card)
+ 8 line ins + outs (IO16)
+ 8 AES ins + outs (IO16)

my dealer told me that max I/O on the stage is 32 X 16 - the rest of the I/O
16 Mix In Card and what ever output card you use beyond 16 must remain in the console as there are only 3 available slots in the remote box.
Can someone clear this up?
tnx

You can have 2 remote racks.
