dSNAKE as signal splitter/distributor

[Jumanji]

I’d like to be able to split input signals so I can use the local inputs as well as local outputs, but then patch (up to) 8 to the dSNAKE outputs at the same time. Therefor splitting the signal to be send to any FOH system that may not be digital. I’ve said up to 8 because I realise that the AB168 only has 8 outs without having to mess around with XLR convertors.

I don’t have the dSNAKE at the moment to see if it can be done already, and there doesn’t seem to be any info about whether it’s possible in these forums. Maybe I just haven’t searched hard enough!?

Thanks,
Joe

you haven’t searched hard enough…

Qu Series is not made for splitting inputs to the outputs

[Arno]

Okay, how about the AB1608 serving not only as a stage box but also to split the signal and send it via the extra Ethercon? Is that possible or outrageous sounding?

[mervaka]

It already does, technically. You can’t connect a second Qu because of clock issues already discussed

[Arno]

Can clock be sent via the Ethercon? If so it would be certainly possible to slave a second Qu, wouldn’t it?

Could you be so kind and point me to the discussion about the clocking issues? Thank you!

No, the QU is only a master, there is no possibility of it being a slave at the moment (and I don’t expect it to)

Running a straight I/O patch should be possible (as a new feature), given enough dsnake outputs, but I’d not hold my breath…

Various clocking discussions

try this one: QU Pack as an audiorack?
Sure, clock can and is transported through the dSnake so that stageboxes can properly synchronize.
The Qu itself is a clock master only and can not slave to an external clock (or run on a different sampling rate). If this is required, you’ll have to check in a different price range.

Linking QU16 and QU-PAC

How can I interface a 2nd Qu32 as a monitor desk off of my dsnake system?

please no more threads about this D:

Sorry.

No need to apologise, maybe we need another forum With crafted “common” queries – else we’ll end up with too many stickies
