What audio sources can connect to digital inputs on the M-DIGIN?

The M-DIGIN accepts digital audio from AES, SPDIF, and optical TOSLINK sources such as broadcast feeds, CD players, digital playback systems, and other audio devices with digital outputs.

Why would I need to switch between AES, SPDIF, and TOSLINK formats?

Different audio sources use different digital formats. AES is broadcast and professional standard, SPDIF is common in consumer and prosumer equipment, and TOSLINK is optical. Selectable input lets you integrate mixed source types without external converters.

What does PAFL (Pre-Fade Audio Listen) functionality enable?

PAFL lets you isolate and monitor individual digital input channels via headphones or control-room speakers to check levels and quality before mixing them into your main production.

How many digital input pairs does this module provide?

The M-DIGIN delivers 8 digital inputs configured as four switchable pairs, each selectable for AES, SPDIF, or optical TOSLINK format.

What does the LED format indicator show?

The LED indicators display which digital format (AES, SPDIF, or TOSLINK) is selected and active on each input pair, helping you quickly troubleshoot signal flow and format mismatches.

Is this module compatible with broadcast and live sound applications?

Yes, the M-DIGIN is ideal for broadcast studios, live event mixing, and installed systems where integration of multiple digital sources is essential.

What is the typical delivery lead time?

Lead times vary with availability. Contact Procure.ae for a delivery timeline.

Which Allen & Heath mixing systems is this module designed for?

The M-DIGIN is an expansion module for the iLive iDR-10 MixRack, providing flexible digital input integration.

What happens when I switch between digital input formats?

The M-DIGIN allows seamless selection between AES, SPDIF, and TOSLINK on each pair via on-module controls, with LED confirmation of active format.

Is there a warranty on the M-DIGIN module?

Yes, warranty coverage applies; terms vary by region and purchase agreement. Contact Procure.ae for warranty details.

FAQ

Q: Can all three digital formats be used simultaneously on the M-DIGIN?
A: No. For each input pair, only one format (AES, SPDIF, or optical TOSLINK) is active at a time, selected via the iLive Surface or PC application.

Q: How can I identify which input is mapped to a specific channel?
A: The yellow CHK LED follows the PAFL function, lighting when the associated channel is selected at the surface or PC — providing a quick visual identification of the active socket.
