POD14B

POD14B is a dual AES/EBU analog to digital audio converter. This unit comes ready for use in 75 Ohm or 110 Ohm installations. POD14B can generate digital audio signals at sampling rates of 32, 44.1, 48, 96 and 192 kHz using its internal oscillator. Alternatively the sampling rate of the digital output signals may be referenced to an external source.Front panel controls and tallies include a power switch with LED tally, a momentary step switch and LED indicators to cycle through the internally generated sample rates from 32 to 192 kHz. Two LEDs indicate whether the external or internal reference is used. The external reference signal has precedence over the internally generated reference signal. As soon as an external reference signal is detected POD14B will automatically switch to it. Coarse gain controls for input 1 are also available on the front panel.Connections to the POD14B are made on the rear panel. Input 1 accepts unbalanced analog signals via standard RCA connectors. Input 2 accepts balanced analog signals via 3-pin Phoenix pluggable connectors. Connections to the digital reference may be made by either 75 Ohm BNC or 110 Ohm Phoenix 3-pin pluggable connectors. Both the 75 Ohm and 110 Ohm connections of each output may be used in parallel. Fine level trim controls for the analog input signal are located adjacent to the corresponding input connectors. The AC power receptacle and fuse are also located on the rear panel.
