To handle digital line level sources there are four additional RJ-45 connectors.
The digital inputs of the WheatNet-IP
88cbl (inputs 5-8) will accommodate digital
inputs having a wide range of sample rates. These inputs will be sample rate converted to
the system’s chosen sample rate of 44.1kHz or 48kHz, which is set in the
System Wizard
when bringing up the BLADE3 after a Factory Reset (or when first setting the BLADE3
up out of the box), or via the optional WheatNet-IP
Navigator GUI. The GUI also allows
you to select input 8 of the digital BLADE3, or of any BLADE3 that has a digital input as
input 8, to be a primary external reference, and a digital input 8 from a different BLADE3
to be a secondary external reference. Please note that the sample rate of a digital input 8
should be the same, either 44.1kHz or 48kHz, as the system’s chosen sample rate.
AES sources are by design stereo; if the BLADE is not set to be stereo the appropriate
Left or Right signal within the AES stream will be applied to the signal path.
