6. ARCHITECTURE - AUDIO PATH
The SONOSAX SX-R4 offers 14 physical input channels, 6 analogue and 8 digital. Up to 8 of these physical
input channels can be assigned to any of the 10 available tracks. Any combination of analogue/digital
channel is possible. These physical channels are grouped per pair as follow:
• 1, 2 : either MIC/LINE input 1 & 2 or AES 1
• 3, 4 : either MIC/LINE input 3 & 4 or AES 2
• 5, 6 : either LINE input 5 & 6 or AES 3
• 7, 8 : AES4 only
The routing Matrix allows assigning and mixing any of the input channels to any of the 10 available tracks.
The first 8 tracks are dedicated to the hard disc (HD) and the 2 additional tracks are dedicated to the
Compact Flash card (CF). If the "Mirroring" function is enabled, then the routing configuration of the hard
disk is identically mapped onto the CF Card.
For Monitoring purposes, you can configure and listen to any combination of these 10 tracks. However, the
peak meter displays only the 8 hard disk's tracks
on the screen.
