AES to S/PDIF on the cheap.
Posted: Fri Oct 04, 2013 3:13 pm
Ciao All.
I need to run a digital out from a transformer balanced Rosetta AES line out, to an Akai MPC S/PDIF input.
The normal Rosetta S/PDIF is taken up.
Does anyone know if it's ok (and good enough) to do the converter lead thing or do I have to get all hardcore about it?
I found a diagram on the Rane site, it converts from 100 to 75 ohms and attenuates the level to 0.5v for S/PDIF.
It's a few resistors so I like it very much.
Cheers
