CHAPTER 1: Overview

Introduction

Welcome to KYRA, DirectOut’s monitoring device for signal control in MADI

environments. KYRA provides three MADI inputs and outputs, an analog stereo

line out and an AES I/O. Up to four stereo or eight mono channels can be summed

with individual levels onto a main mix. The main mix is output by the integrated

speakers and the other outputs.

Feature Summary

MADI Ports 1 x SC multi-mode connectors

1 x SFP (empty cage without module)

1 x coaxial BNC connectors with PFT technology

(power fail through)

MADI Formats 56/64 channel, 48k/96k Frame

Sample Rates 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96 kHz +/-12.5%

AES Port 1 x AES3 I/O (DSUB-9)

Line Output 1 x stereo, balanced, +24 dBu (DSUB-9)

Speaker 2 x speakers

Headphone Output 6.3 mm TRS jack, stereo, +18 dBu

USB Port USB 2.0 port for ﬁrmware updates and remote con-

trol.

Power Supply This device is equipped with one wide range power

supply (84 V to 264 V AC / 47 Hz to 63 Hz / safety

class 1)

How it works

A channel pair or two single mono channels are selected via the source panel.

Each of the four source panels can be conﬁgured to either stereo or mono. The

mono channels for left and right are summed with individual levels (mix level) onto

the main mix (stereo). The volume (master volume) of the four outputs (speakers,

line out, phones, AES out) is adjusted (or muted) individually.The channel selection

can be locked against unwanted modiﬁcation.

CHAPTER 1: Overview

Applications

KYRA can be used for monitoring, line checking and mixing of digital signals.

Typical applications include:

• creation of individual monitor feeds for commentators

• ﬂexible signal control of a MADI or AES signal

• basic mix of 4 stereo or eight mono channels

• format conversion of a MADI signal (SFP <> SC <> BNC)

• signal distribution (routing matrix) [in a future release]
