Nomad AES in, Sonosax AES out, routing the mono mix

[Jobo]

Howdy,

I'm hoping for some technical guidance running a console mixer in front of a Nomad 8. I'm setup using both AES inputs and analog input on nomad to accomplish a post fade mono mix, and pre fade ISOs down the line.

The setup is Sonosax 84 AES out -> Nomad AES in.

Ch 1-8 digital out on sonosax is post-eq, pre-fade signal.

That feeds directly to Digital in 1-8 on Nomad.

The Sonosax digital out is ONLY pre-fade, post eq. In order to get a post fader signal I must run an analog bus (XLR) out of Sonosax and into analog input 1 to Nomad.

This solves my routing a mono mix to the Nomad, my question is this.

Am I facing any factors in delay or latency with this setup and A/D conversion? Recording to Card using Digital & analog inputs simultaneously, does anyone else have experience with this?

I notice no delay between the mono mix track and the pre fade track on Nomad with this config, but I'm not sure on the science end of it.

This is a new setup for me, any constructive suggestions/criticisms are welcome.

Thanks,

Jobo

If you are noticing any delays on your analog in's versus your digital in's you can dial in delay on you analog channels in the setup menu on Nomad.
