Device Description
Congratulations on your purchase of an X6R/V3R-TP A/D and D/A Converter Device with SANE and Ethernet.
The X6R/V3R-TP series manual will quickly demonstrate the advantages of the device and help to ease your day-
to-day workload in a professional audio-visual environment.
9 in 1 - the X6R/V3R-TP is a network converter unit for SANE with the highest degree of flexibility with regards to
the I/O configuration. Four different card types enable the complete customisation of the I/O cards. It enables the
conversion of analogue signals - 16 inputs, 16 outputs, 8 inputs and 8 outputs, dual microphone inputs with dual
independent adjustable gains. The X6R/V3R-TP is designed for sample rates up to 192 kHz. Six different
versions of
X6R
and tree
V3R
are available:
X6
R-TP-16MI
⇒
16 microphone inputs - two 8-channel mic/line input boards
V3
R-TP-8MI
⇒
8 microphone inputs - single 8-channel mic/line input board
X6
R-TP-16LI
⇒
16 line inputs - two 8-channel line input boards
V3
R-TP-8LI
⇒
8 line inputs - single 8-channel line input board
X6
R-TP-16LO
⇒
16 line outputs - two 8-channel line output boards
V3
R-TP-8LO
⇒
8 line outputs - single 8-channel line output board
X6
R-TP-8MI/8LO
⇒
8 microphone inputs and 8 line outputs - single 8-channel mic/line input board
and single 8-channel line output board
X6
R-TP-8LI/8LO
⇒
8 line inputs and 8 line outputs - single 8-channel line input board and single
8-channel line output board
X6
R-TP-8DualMic
⇒
8 microphone inputs with two independent preamps each- single 8-channel
dual-mic/line input board
The X6R/V3R-TP units can be used together to create SANE CAT5 Network (64 audio channels + Ethernet).
Audio channels and Ethernet can be exchanged between SANE and the OPTOCORE
®
OPTICAL DIGITAL
NETWORK SYSTEM – X6R/V3R-TP device can be connected to any FX R-series Optocore unit. All parameters
on the converters can be controlled and monitored with the same software application as all other Optocore
devices: OPTOCORE CONTROL software. Every channel from TP device connected by SANE is available
throughout the complete OPTOCORE fiber network.
The X6R/V3R-TP is especially designed for rack mounted applications and permanent installation. All cards are
equipped with Euroblock / Phoenix connectors. These common installation interfaces provide a simple and cost-
efficient connection with other audio equipment.
The X6R-TP with the dual microphone input card removes the problem where only one of the FOH or Monitor
engineers can have full gain control of a single microphone input channel. Every microphone input incorporates
two independent microphone preamps meaning both can be adjusted individually. Therefore, analogue split
boxes with two stage racks to give FOH and monitor engineers the freedom to adjust their mic preamps directly at
their own console can be a thing of the past.
The X6R/V3R-TP with analogue mic input, line input and line output cards allow customised I/O configuration per
device. Two/one card slots can be equipped with different cards, so six combinations with 16 inputs, 16 outputs or
8 inputs and 8 outputs can be assembled for the X6R according to the customer’s requirements.
The microphone inputs include a high quality microphone preamp, phantom power and selectable gains in 1 dB
steps from -4 dB to +66 dB at a maximum input level of 22 dBu. The line inputs are equipped with selectable
maximum channel levels of 27 dBu, 22 dBu, 18 dBu, 8 dBu and the line output with a selectable maximum
channel level of 22 dBu, 18 dBu, 12 dBu, 8 dBu. The high quality preamps, A/D- and D/A converters make the
X6R units ideal for the incorporation into audio systems even if no OPTOCORE network is present. They provide
a wide dynamic range with negligible distortion and extremely low noise.
