SRC VI

The SRC VI is a powerful universal tool for modern home and pro studio envrionments when several digital devices are used together.

More and more audio devices (DAT-recorder, sampler, computer, ...) now include S/PDIF or AES/EBU digital interface connectors. That is basically a very positive development because it means that you can avoid unwanted AD and DA conversion to transfer audio signals. However, the problem in many cases is that the different devices are incompatible because they are not using the same format or do not support all important sample rates.

The SRC VI by ST Audio is solving all these common problems. The six main applications include:

- digital patchbay/switchbox for up to 6 AES/EBU and S/PDIF signal streams
- high quality realtime sample rate convertion (bypass possible)
- digital signal distribution
- master clock generation (WordClock out)
- signal convertion (AES/EBU <-> S/PDIF)
- signal repeating to extend the max. length of digital connections

You can connect up to six AES/EBU or S/PDIF input streams at the same time to the SRC VI (5 inputs are on the back side of the product, one input in each format is placed on the front for easy access). There are six separate outputs (2 AES/EBU, 2 optical S/PDIF, 2 coaxial S/PDIF) that are sending out the signal that has been selected on the front panel. One output in each format is placed on the front side for easy access, the other outputs are on the back panel. The input signal can be sent out via the outputs 1:1 if desired (with the same sample rate). Also the sample rate can be changed if needed. There is even a WordClock in- and output for internal and external synchronisation.

As you can see, the SRC VI is a universal unit that solves many connection problems in a modern digital studio envrionment. A detailed description of the product with application examples can be found inside the manual (see below).
