Re: AES50 DevelopmentThe next question is re the configuration for say using the Rack for monitoring with a couple of S16's. I recall that to use two X32's ( with no S16's) for FOH and monitoring then the configuration would be - stage inputs to stage X32 and Aes50 to FOH - which would mean that the stage X32 had control over the Head amps! So with RACK - for the full 32 inputs - this could be done with the Rack plus 1 x S16 at the stage - I.e Rack local Inputs plus S16 ( sorry this all bunched up but can't seem to tab to a new line in the editor!!!!). To allow the FOH to be in control of the Head-amps then you would need 2 x cat5 cables from FOH to stage. _ So two S16's feeding the FOH X32 over one Cat and then another Cat from the FOH X32 to the Stage Rack monitoring position. However is there a way apart form the ADAT of sending the signal from the S16's to two consoles. Once the S16 are linked then AES59 A and B are used on the first S16 and AES50 port A on the second - can the stage Rack ( or other) tap the 32 channels form the second S16 AES50 port B? - or is the only way out using the adat? BTW on the behringer site the set-up configurations for the Rack and the Core illustrate monitoring duties and not FOH!
