Allen & Heath DX168 and ME1 Connectivity for SQ Mixer

[blakeadamParticipant]

Hello,

I’ve searched through the entire Allen & Heath website for the SQ, ME1, DX168 product page for some information on how to hook up the ME1 to the DX168 that is hooked up to the SQ mixer.

With the DX168 running 96 kHz and its DX A port hooked up to SQ console’s S-link, can I connect the ME1 to the DX B port on DX168?

If not, would setting DX168 to 48 kHz allow ME1 to run off DX 168’s DX B port?

Much help appreciated!

EDIT: The expansion slot would have a Waves expansion card, needed for Sound Grid processing. So the SLink expansion method is not the preferred solution.

Hi Adam,

There is no way to connect a ME system to a DX expander.

You would need to use a dSnake or GX expander instead.

You can find the supported configurations here: https://www.allen-heath.com/media/SLinkConnections_V1_5_0.pdf

Thanks!
Alex
