Yamaha Commercial Audio Systems Inc. is introducing its new broadcast interface card, MY8-SDI-ED, which is compatible with every Yamaha digital mixing console and DME series digital mixing engines. It delivers 8 - 64 I/O channels, based on the number of consoles and cards used.

The MY8-SDI-ED gives input and output of HD-SDI embedded audio signals. The card features one HD/SDSDI input, two HD/SD-SDI outputs (same signal), and one through-output (reclocked). It is able to de-embed up to two of the four audio groups, multiplexed in an HD-SDI signal, and has the ability to embed two audio groups into an HD/ SD-SDI signal for output.

Marc Lopez, marketing manager, said, “Many broadcasters use both HD and SD format systems, so the MY8- SDI-ED card was designed to enable direct interface from either format when using Yamaha digital products.”
