Re: DA88 Audio capture with Blackmagic HD Extreme

Here's the setup...

DA88 >> TDIF >> IF-AE8 >> 4 AES cables >> Blackmagic Audio to SDI >> HD Extreme

each AES cable carries 2 audio channels.

The Blackmagic Audio to SDI is this one...

... but I am not sure if it needs an SDI input or can 'add' the audio channels and create an SDI data stream - I will leave that one for Luke to answer.

Just as a side issue be warned that a lot of DA88's on Ebay can be a little dodgy and some are not fully optioned up but you may not need all the options. For just playing back you may find the DA38 will do the job sufficiently.

What would I do without the 'UNDO' button!!!!
