2.1 Application Examples
2.1.1 Two SD9s Sharing One D-Rack ..........................................
In this example, either one of the SD9s can act as analogue gain controller of the D-Rack according to which one is connected to the Full
Connect port on the Little Red Box. The other SD9 which is connected to the Receive Only port on the Little Red Box will receive all the
D-Rack input signals but have no control of the analogue gains. This Receive Only console can have Gain Tracking switched on for each
shared input signal's channel and then any analogue gain change made by the master console will be automatically compensated by the
digital trim on the Receive Only console's channels.
The SD9 with Full Control should be Audio Sync Master and the other SD9 should be set to external Audio Sync from the incoming CAT5
port from the Little Red Box.
Please see section 1.1.5 Full Connect and Receive Only for Rack Sharing for details of other console settings.
