EtherSound ES8in, ES8mic & ES8out
Ethernet Audio Bridges
The impedance of each pair of ES8in inputs can be configured to 600 or 22.2k. Default setting is
+22.2k for all inputs.

Section a shows the default setting for normal operating mode; this setting MUST NOT be modified. This
jumper area is reserved for servicing purposes.
Section b allows for modification of the ES8in/ES8mic sampling frequency. The default value is preset to
48 kHz. It can be set to 44.1 kHz. Note that this setting is effective only if the ES8in/ES8mic is the Primary
Master of the EtherSound network, as the Primary Master is the device providing the clock for the entire
network. In case ES8in/ES8mic acts as “common” Master device, the sampling frequency is determined by the
incoming EtherSound stream (synchronized on the Primary Master clock). Modifications on devices other
than the Primary Master will be ignored.
Acting as a slave device in EtherSound networks, ES8out does not feature sampling frequency jumpers.
