AWS 924-948 - Solid State Logic

Studio IntegrationPatchbay GuidelinesInstrument Inputs (AWS 924 Only)It is not recommended that the ‘Instrument’ inputs are broken out to a patchbay. These inputs are unbalanced and have ahigh input impedance so, to help avoid the pickup of noise and interference, cable lengths should be kept at short as possible.Line Level Input/OutputsAll other analogue inputs and outputs can be connected via a patchbay. It is recommended that the cable shield is connectedat the console end and disconnected at the patch row to avoid ground loops. Wiring to the installation should normally havethe shield connected to the patch row. The shield connection of all jacks should be linked together (note that patch rowswith solid metal front panels will automatically do this) and then linked to a common star point on the patchbay. Thisstarpoint can then be returned – via a thick grounding cable (6mm sq. or greater) – to the chassis stud on the rear of theAWS console. This will reduce the risk of earth loops within the installation.The screen pins of all analogue inputs and outputs – with the exception of the microphone inputs – are connected directly tothe chassis of the AWS924/48.Mic InputsIf Microphone inputs are to be connected via a patchbay, the type of patch-row used should be of the insulated varietywhere the jack screens are not connected to the main body of the patch-row – there are commercially available patch-rowsthat meet this requirement. The ground connection from each microphone must be linked through the patch jacks to theXLR on the back of the console without interruption.AWS948 Patchbay layout Example:AMIC LINESUSER OPTION12 13 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 9 10 11 14 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 249 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48BCHANNEL MIC INPUTSUSER OPTION12 13 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 9 10 11 14 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 249 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48C9 10 11 12 13 14 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24DAW OUTPUTS33 34 35 36 37 38 39 4025 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 489 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48DCHANNEL LINE INPUTS12L 12R 13L 13R 5L 5R 6L 6R 7L 7R 8L 8R1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4R 9L 9R 10L 10R 11L 11R 17L 17R 18L 18R 19L 19R 20L 20R14L 14R 15L 15R 16L 16R 21L 21R 22L 22R 23L 23R 24L 24R9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48ECHANNEL INSERT SENDS11R 12L 12R 13L 13R 14L 5L 5R 6L 6R 7L 7R 8L 8R1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4R 9L 9R 10L 10R 11L 17L 17R 18L 18R 19L 19R 20L 20R14R 15L 15R 16L 16R 21L 21R 22L 22R 23L 23R 24L 24R25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 489 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40FCHANNEL INSERT RETURNS11R 12L 12R 13L 13R 14L 5L 5R 6L 6R 7L 7R 8L 8R1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4R 9L 9R 10L 10R 11L 17L 17R 18L 18R 19L 19R 20L 20R14R 15L 15R 16L 16R 21L 21R 22L 22R 23L 23R 24L 24R9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48GDIRECT OUTPUTS11 12 13 14 9 10 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 246 TRACK REPLAY 1L R C LFE LS RS6 TRACK REPLAY 2 6 TRACK REPLAY 3 6 TRACK REPLAY 4R C LFE LS R C LFE LS R C LFE LS L RS L RS L RS9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48HDAW INPUTS12 13 9 10 11 14 15 161 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24EXT A 6TK 1L R C LFE LS RSEXT A 6TK 2L R C LFE LS RSEXT A 6TK 3L R C LFE LS RSEXT A 6TK 4L R C LFE LS RS9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48JREC REC MIX MIXMIX DISTRIBUTION OUTTRACK BUS OUTSTEREO REPLAYCUE A CUE B FX SENDSINSERT OUTPUT INSERT OUTPUT L R L R L R L R 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4RL R L R 1 2 3 445 46 47 489 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44KRETURNRETURN DIST IN8 TK RECORDER INEXT B INBUS INJECT INFX INL R L R L R L R 1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4R 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4RCUE BFXCUE A 1 2 3 4 L R L R 1 2 3 445 46 47 489 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44LMONITOR INSERT SENDMAIN LS AMAIN LS BMINI A MINI B F/B A OUT F/B B OUT LSN T/B OSCFX OUTDECODERLt RtL R C LFE LS RSL R C LFE LS RS L R C LFE LS RS L R L R L R L R OUT OUT1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4R8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 241 2 3 4 5 6 7 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48MMONITOR INSERT RTNAMP INAMP INAMP IN AMP IN AMP A AMP B LSNECHO RETURN INENCODERLt Rt L R C LFE LS RS L R C LFE LS RS L R L R L R L R IN1L 1R 2L 2R 3L 3R 4L 4RL R C LFE LS RS1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48Notes:1.
