1.7 Audio Sync
The SD8 will operate at Sample Rates of either 48000Hz (48kHz) or 96000Hz (96kHz).. By default, it is set to clock internally (as a
Master) at 48kHz.
Within a normal setup, the SD8 will usually remain as clock master. However, there are times when the SD8 needs to be clocked
externally. The Audio Sync panel allows you to control external synchronisation.
To access the Audio Sync Panel, touch the Setup Menu button, followed by Audio Sync. The following panel will open…
The SD8 will clock from the following sources : Word Clock, AES/EBU, MADI & Optocore (if fitted)
Note : When a valid clock is detected on an external sync input, the corresponding Green OK box will light, even if that input is not
selected as the clock source for the SD8.
Example External Clocking : Word Clock @ 48kHz
