I freaking hope I never hear any NR from location. As a post guy, we mainly want a nice clean raw sound.

everyone here has some great info and links. All I want to say is please don't normalise!!!!! 

I know there are many answers here but. OMF, no, no, no.

Stems are very standard deliverables however it is best to agree on what stems are required before you even start or as soon as it is realised that a particular stem might be required as it will possibly impact the routing of your session (eg. Proving dipped or undipped stems etc...)

But I reiterate. No on giving OMF.

Super useful if your ears are stuck in post projects a lot. Just make sure the features of advanced are needed. Kinda pricey if not. Rx4 is just fine for most stuff

NO. RTFM, study it and know it. Don't make others read it for you.

Tourtelot is confused, don't know why he is referencing the 788t.

The Digital Output Bus appears solely on the AES3id BNC output connector.

You owe me $50. I take paypal.

All good dude, balancing transformer already bought.

Seems like an extra piece of kit to hook the 788T up to a Lynx Aurora. If you want to be fancy, use 110 ohm cable between the TA3 AES out on the 788T and a DSub 25 into to the Lynx. If not, make one with mic cable. The run would be pretty short. Lynx only in on a DSub 25 so a custom cable is needed.

D,

Do the ta3 connectors really output aes? Out of my 702t?

Just get something like this and be done:

Yeah cheers. Reckon that's the go for sure

Why? Should just be plug and play. AES out of the SD into AES in on the Lynx. AES is 110 ohm at both ends.

D.

Ah awesome then. Thats what I kinda was thinking and of course would be trying but the manual seemed to point to aes3id which is unbalanced 75ohm. Either way I've no doubts it'll work.

Cheers.

Apologies to constantin and the forum for my outburst. Drinking and forum posts don't go well sometimes. My AES issue is fine. Will just require an impedance transformer.

Cheers

Listen mate. Please comment no further. Upon further research I have solved my interfacing issue. You are a smug know it all no help. Please do not comment anymore. You are a snide little man. I do not wish to converse with you anymore. I am new to location sound. I very rarely deal with the gear as I am stuck in a studio mixing the stuff you record so if your going to have an attitude then you can kindly bugger off.

Everyone else on this forum seems very open and helping besides you.

Happy new year. Perhaps time for an attitude adjustment.

And it is difficult to try as I do not have the cables yet and was wanting to get it straight before I purchased, so no trying.

What happens when you try it? If you're reading in the manual about +4 and -10 levels, you are not reading about the digital outs. If given a choice between a pro and a consumer setting, always go with pro.

Sorry if my reply sounds like I'm trying to be a substitute for the Senator. So let me add this:

There are no dumb quetions. However, a quetion can reveal your level of knowledge. That is, after all, why you need to ask it.

In the manual of the 702T that I just glanced at, there is no mentioning of +4 output level, but in any case, those level settings are for line level (i.e. analog) outs. You're asking about the digital outs which can be either S/PDIF or AES3 on the 702. The former is considered a consumer format and the latter is a professional format. They are very similar formats, but one of their differences is not a difference in level. If you want to go into your Lynx using its AES inputs, you should also use the AES outs on your 702.

since you have all the equipment nearby, as you said, you could of course just try it out and see/hear what'll happen. You certainly won't break anything if you use a wrong setting.

Since you professed in another thread to know all about the A-D and, presumably, D-A process, you probably knew all this anyway, but it is for the benefit of other readers who may not

Gday,

 

Sorry for the probably dumb question but I am trying to work out if it is possible to go AES out of my SD702t into the AES (XLR) inputs of my Lynx Aurora 8 to basically see if I can use the 702 at pres for my studio when needed but im getting lost in the SD manual is it just referring to +4 and -10 with the pro and consumer settings?

 

thanks and sorry again for the dumb question.

Well, it seemed like you didn't. Anyway, good for you.

Phew

Preamps are always analog. Frequently followed by an A-D converter as an integral part of the inputs. And no, the 744T has no direct outs (what for? It's not a mixer), but you can route an input straight to an output, but... still converting to analog

ok some bad wording from me, I am fully aware of how pre's and A/D and D/A works, dude, it was just a wish, no need to get defensive. The AES/SPDIF is perfectly fine.

Of course the analog out are not "before conversion". How would that be possible?

Well if the pres were analog, they could be post pre like a direct out... But they aren't.

I am running a Lynx Aurora 8 with a thunderbolt interface. I like the idea of thunderbolt but even I will admit it is too closed but I am a slave to Apple so thunderbolt me up!

My question is, can you have the audio streaming out the digital outs without recording or being in record mode? I have a 702t

Yeah I don't think the analog line outs of the 702t are before conversion so a straight out digital approach would be best, i'm looking to do the same thing at the moment with my Lynx Aurora converters. Trying to make my SD pull double duty as my studio pres too (yeesss im cheap I know)

what about using the analog outs? going into the analog inputs of a converter? are the line outs of a 702t direct?

all amazing guys thanks, i'll get connecting

Welcome to heaps of Aussie gigs

I swear. Theft gets my blood boiling

Pretty sure a boom (probably a carbon fiber one), shotgun, lapel, cables and recorder should pack down

Haha, that's funny. Technology is great but the people are better

Appreciated
