The S-Link connection is a Point to Point connection, not a network connection.

So the only possibility is SQ to AR2412, then AR2412 exp port to AR0804 (or AB168)

You are not the first confused as they use same connector type, but they are not “simply” ethernet.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

Taking a fast look in SQ Mixpad, it is possible to make a DCA including Main and Auxes if needed.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

Big part of the reason could be:

1: NY64-D is strictly 48khz vs the A&H card 48K + 96K

2: The A&H has src (Sample Rate Converter) allowing you to run 48K on the Dante network, while still run 96K internal in the console (wivh btw the console always do, regardless og external connections)

These two points require a higher standard of components after all.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

That is correct, the “patchbay” way will be using Tie-Lines.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

A way I have done it is:
Channel 1-38 mono
Channel 39-48 set to 5 stereo channels

Then just change the layout of a faderbank between each band, and patch the channels needed to fill their rider.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

On the LR mix, press the assign button to the left and de-select the channel(s) you want to remove from the main routing to LR

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

You have source on the left and destination on top.

In other words, right now you are sending Waves/Soundgrid 1-x to USB out 1-x 😉

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

You do not set the SQ5 for 48KHz, it is the sample rate conversion in the Dante/Waves card you change to 48K vs 96K.
The SQ console will always be at 96K internally.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

It combines pin 1 and 3 in both XLR to sleeve/ground on the TRS

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

As Scott wrote, or you could get a DT168 and use that on the Dante besides the AR2412 + Ar84.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

The reseller most likely mean that if you have the Dante card, you will be able to send all inputs on the console as well as the ones from DX (max 64) out via the Dante net for recording in a Daw.
(TieLines would be the “preferred” way, as you then record the clean signal)

Then later you can change from the DX to Dante, if you want.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

Outputs on the second DX168 are 17-24.

If you look closely on the output page, you can see 4 small dots on the “S-link” tab,

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

On the back of the SQ you have 4 TRS inputs.
just patch those as needed in the I/O tab.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

It is one of the, for some minor for others major, shortcommings of the SQ hardware platform, there is no RTC (real time clock) on the board.
It would need a different board inside the console to add that, as it is not something simply done in firmware.

[Søren SteinmetzParticipant]

On the CL5, did you make the Dante patch between Dante and the channel on the console ?

And another thing, samplerate mismatch perhaps?
(The CL5 defaults to 48K afair )
