Inserts
Either analog or digital insert units can be connected
to operate after the

switch. These are
selectable pre- or post- the Input Summing Router.
These inserts can be pre- or post- the input summing

selector switch) and always pre- the RTN/BUS

Either AES/EBU digital devices, or analog (standard
+4dBu balanced) may be used here. Note that when
making connections to an analog insert unit, because
of the nature of the connectors used, two connections
need to be made, one for input and one for output.

After the connection has been made, you should set
up the insert as follows:

Monitor connections
There are two sets of monitor connections, analog
and digital.

The analog connections are standard balanced
+4dBu connections, and the digital outputs are in
AES/EBU format.

The sampling frequency output from the digital moni-
tor outputs is the input frequency. If you are mixing a
high sampling frequency project, you must therefore
make sure that your digital monitoring setup can han-
dle these frequencies, or use the DS-M7.1’s analog mon-
itoring ports.

The analog and digital signals are output in parallel,
and there is no switching between them.

The AES/EBU monitoring signals can be used in parallel
with the analog monitoring signals to drive a suitably-

This can be set so that all the downmix, bass manage-
ment and delay settings, together with all muting and
soloing and level settings described in “Other moni-
toring settings” on page 17, are ignored, or so that
these settings take effect through the digital port.
This affects the digital outputs only—the analog out-
puts will always reflect these settings.
