The ASI allows Pro16^® Series Personal Mixers and output devices to interface with a Pro64^® audio network.

Features

Product Details

The ASI A-Net Systems Interface provides a link between Pro64^® Series networking products and Pro16^® Series output devices, such as the A-16II and A-16R Personal Mixers.*   The ASI features two Pro64 network ports and four Pro16 output ports, all using heavy duty locking Neutrik EtherCon connectors.

Plug-and-Play Simplicity

The ASI is a plug-and-play module, requiring no configuration beyond selecting a Pro64 network port for Manual Mode systems. The incoming Pro64 stream is broken into 16-channel blocks and transmitted out the corresponding Pro16 ports. The number of available channels and valid Pro16 ports is determined by the sample rate of the Pro64 network (64 channels at 44.1/48kHz±, 32 at 96kHz±, and 16 at 192kHz±). Stereo link settings from the Pro64 network are passed to the Pro16 outputs for use with Personal Mixer products.

Product Compatibility

The Pro16 outputs of the ASI A-Net Systems Interface can be connected directly to Personal Mixers, such as the A-16II or A-16R, to a Pro16 A-Net Distributor, or to an AN-16/o Output Module.

* Important Note: The original A-16 Personal Mixer (discontinued 2004) is not compatible with the ASI. Some early A-16R Personal Mixers built prior to the release of the Y1 card are also not compatible. Contact Customer Service for additional compatibility info.

Systems

32x16 Digital Snake with Personal Mixing

This system combines the power and performance of a Pro64 digital snake and the control of Pro16 personal mixing. Two 6416m Mic Input Modules accept up to 32 mic/line inputs on stage, while two 6416i Input Modules take main returns and a monitor feed from the console at front of house. The ASI on stage provides the interface between the Pro64 digital snake and the Pro16 Series devices, with the selected Pro16 A-Net Out on the ASI connecting to the A-Net In on the A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor.
