MADI Modes
RedNet 6/D64R supports both varispeed and non-varispeed MADI modes. Non-varispeed mode
enables up to 64 channels I/O at 48 kHz. Varispeed mode enables up to 56 channels I/O at 48kHz.
The MADI input of RedNet 6/D64R will automatically detect the channel count of incoming signals,
meaning the user does not need to adjust any settings. When ‘Follow Rx’ (as described below) is set,
the MADI output of RedNet 6/D64R will automatically be set to match the incoming MADI signal.
The RedNet 6/D64R MADI input select is auto-sensing by default, although manual override is
provided in the RedNet Control application. When Auto mode is selected and both coaxial and optical
inputs are present, RedNet 6/D64R will automatically prefer the optical input. If the optical cable
is removed from the RedNet 6/D64R input, the unit will automatically switch to the coaxial input. If
Auto Input is selected while no valid coaxial or optical input is present, both the optical and coaxial
input indicators will flash.
The RedNet 6/D64R MADI output has three varispeed states selectable from the RedNet 6/D64R
spanner menu in the RedNet Control application under ’MADI Output Varispeed’:
• Follow Rx:
Select to match the channel count of the incoming MADI signal.
• Fixed (64/32/16):
Select to specify 64, 32 or 16 channels depending on the sample rate.
• Varispeed (56/28/14): Select to specify 56, 28 or 14 channels depending on the sample rate.
In addition to the varispeed states the RedNet 6/D64R MADI output is capable of a range of sample
rates. These can be selected in the RedNet Control application under ‘Sample Rate Convertors >
MADI Rate‘:
• Follow Rx (Rate & Varispeed):
Select when a MADI input is present, the MADI output of
RedNet 6/D64R will automatically match the MADI input for Sample Rate (Rate) and channel
count (Varispeed).
• Single (64/56):
Select to output 44.1 or 48kHz
• Dual (32/28):
Select to output 88.2 or 96kHz
• Quad (16/14):
Select to output 176.4 or 192kHz
