Aviom16/o-Y1 A-Net Card
The Aviom16/o-Y1 A-Net Card provides a direct digital interface between Yamaha® digital mixer products and Aviom's Pro16® Series, including the A640, A360, A320, and legacy A-16II Personal Mixers*, A-Net distributors, and output modules.
The Y1 card eliminates the need for an analog input module when creating a monitor mixing or audio distribution system. Assign any combination of channels, direct outputs, aux sends, groups, or sub-mixes from the Yamaha console user interface to the Y1 card as needed.
Features
- Mini-YGDAI (MY) format, supported by most Yamaha digital consoles
- One 16-channel Pro16 A-Net output (EtherCon connector)
- Supports sample rates from 44.1kHz to 48kHz, +/-10%
- Assign audio outputs directly from the Yamaha user interface
- Channel Link DIP switches for stereo operation
Product Details
The Aviom16/o-Y1 card becomes the head end to the monitoring system, simplifying system setup. Just connect a Cat-5e cable from the card to an A-Net Distributor and personal mixers to create a monitor system that can be expanded with additional personal mixers, output modules, and distributors.
In systems using the A640, A360, or A320 Personal Mixer, two or more console cards can be combined to create a network of up to 64 sources. Just add the SB4 System Bridge to combine the console cards' A-Net outputs and connect the SB4 output to a D800 or D800-Dante A-Net Distributor.
Configuration and Setup
Configuration of input sources for an Aviom monitoring system is done digitally right from the Yamaha console's user interface. This gives the console operator complete freedom to route any combination of channels, direct outputs, aux sends, groups, or sub-mixes from the console to the Y1 card.
The console's powerful scene memory can be used to send different groups of channels into the monitors automatically as needed during a performance.
