Multi digital input selector - Where is?


Recommended Posts

With quite a few digital sources from the likes of radios, TV, I counted and got to five and stopped counting. Principally I'd like to src from 44.1, 48 khz to 96/192 and have one device to perform this op.

May have to split functions for the src which is available from pro audio, but the muti input selector for say 6 coax inputs and one output is for me difficult to find.

 

Does anyone have an idea if this device exists and can it remote-controlled since what is on offer so far its NIML (not in my lounge).

For toslink there is the Lindy, but as far as I see, they do not do coax:

4 Way TosLink Digital Optical Audio Switch (up to 192kHz) | LINDY UK

 

This one is without a remote control, but automatically selects the active source (assuming only one source is active):

This one has remote and 4 coax - if you need more, you could stack two of them ;-)

DA4X | Inday

 

More than 4 digital inputs is rare in consumer switches. Pro switches often do/allow additional processing - maybe not what you had in mind. And definitely heavy on the budget.

 

Best,

Why not the DAC or AVR (if you need a lot of inputs)?

 

OK, what I would like to do is this:

 

Digital out 1 OR Digital out 2 OR Digital out n -> Switcher -> Switcher output AES3 or coax -> SRC -> Reclocker -> DAC.

 

AVR's convert to analog, and quite a few have only 1 or 2 coax inputs. The Yamaha pre-amp (top of the line) has 3 coax in and 3 Toslink in, but no digital out like most, if not all AVRs.

Thanks Søren. Yes, the Toslink are out.

The rest are 4 sources, not enough... :(

 

Z-Sys have routers which are remote controlled, it's all simple ASCII code, maybe that's a new hobby? There's a 16 channel job, the detangler. At 2U it's a little high although the pros versions are 1U, and have DB25's, so snakes involved.

Also thought of HAPI, but $.
