Input channels can be metered, rearranged, monitored, and output in

any order, or even mixed, panned, and trimmed. The resulting mixed

output channels may also be metered. Refer to the How do I Show

Mixer Output Levels on the Level Meters? on page 52 for details.

Because an optional redundant internal power supply is available,

power integrity is assured and the output of the internal mixer can be

used for live events and broadcast chain use. Refer to the How Do I Mix

Any Input(s) to Any Output(s)? on page 50 and How Do I Adjust Mixer

Levels from the Main Screen? on page 51 for more information.

Audio Processor Cards

While the AMP2-16V comes standard with a dual input 3G/HD/SD-

SDI card, it can be outfitted with up to five optional cards of various

types so that it can be customized for your particular installation.

• Dual Input 3G/HD/SD-SDI Card: This card has two selectable 3G/

HD/SD-SDI inputs, one reclocked or re-embedded 3G/HD/SD-SDI

output of the selected input, and eight de-embedded AES outputs

on two HD-15 connectors from the selected input. The de-

embedded AES output signals can be delayed 3 to 160 ms in 1 ms

increments. If these delayed AES signals are then re-embedded, the

delay also applies then to audio in the re-embedded 3G/HD/SD-

SDI output. Up to three of these cards can be installed in an AMP2-

16V. The video from the selected input can be displayed on the left

screen of the front panel.

• AES Input Card: This card provides BNC inputs for eight AES

channel pairs. These inputs can be metered, monitored, or output to

optional output cards, according to preset and menu settings.

• AES Output Card: This card provides BNC outputs for eight AES

channel pairs. These outputs can be derived from other inputs,

decoded Dolby channels, or the flexible internal audio mixer,

according to preset and menu settings.

• AVB Listener Card: This card provides a 100 Mbit/s AVB Ethernet

interface specifically for AVB audio. When you connect this card to

your AVB network, you can listen to two streams of up to eight

channels each, for a total of 16 channels. You must use your AVB

1722.1 network controller to connect one or two talkers to the AVB
