VxD console – Gina24 and Layla24

Note: To preserve the high audio quality of Layla24/Gina24’s converters it

is best to use the Internal input clock setting instead of synchronizing to an

external ADAT clock, which may add unwanted jitter to the signal.

Esync – Esync is a proprietary form of super clock that is used to synchronize two

or more Echo 24-bit products like Layla24, Gina24, and Darla24. While Gina24

and Darla24 have both input and output connectors on their PCI cards, Layla24

only has the Esync output connector.

Layla24 and Gina24 always transmit Esync clock.

Now, let’s take a look at some example configurations and how you might set them

up from a synchronization standpoint.

Let’s start with a simple example. Suppose that Layla24 is the only audio device

used in your system. Since you have no other devices to synchronize with, simply

select Internal for Layla24’s input clock. Layla24 will then use its own clock to

control its operation.

Now a little more complicated set-up: You have two Layla24s connected. Simply

set Layla24 #1 to Internal for its input clock. Now connect the first Layla24 to the

second one via a BNC cable running from Word Clock Out on Layla24 #1 to Word

Clock In on Layla24 #2. Now select Word for Layla24 #2’s input sync. The

second Layla24 will slave to the first one and your Layla24s will now operate in

unison.

No matter how many devices you are synchronizing, the concept is essentially the

same. You are merely “daisy-chaining” devices together using compatible clocks.

One device will operate as the source of the master clock, with each successive

device using that clock to sync.
