Author Topic: Setting up Hi-Vi output on JSD-60 Justin Hamaker Film God Posts: 2253 From: Lakeport, CA USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 04-17-2019 01:12 PM                        Whe have a customer who requested descriptive audio at our drive-in. I want to test it out to see if it's possible to output this on a radio transmitter. I wanted to see if anyone has insight on setting this up. I saw in the manual that it requires a 5 pin phoenix connector to set up the Hi-Vin. But I didn't see any configuration settings, so I assume it's basically there or not there.  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-17-2019 02:42 PM                     As far as I know, the recent USL processors offer an HI autodetect feature. That is, if there is actual HI included with the DCP, then it will play that track out of HI. If there is no explicit HI audio on that channel, it will automatically default to playing a L/C/R downmix through the HI output. Harold will certainly drop in quickly here to explain more. - Carsten  |  IP: Logged Harold Hallikainen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 906 From: Denver, CO, USA Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-17-2019 03:02 PM                        As Carsten said, I'm dropping in! You should have received the 5 pin Phoenix style connector with the JSD-60. You can set up channel routing, including HI/VI in the Advanced tab. The default channel routing for a drive in takes AES8 and sends it to the VI output. You may want to add in some LCR so people hear the main soundtrack along with the descriptive audio.
