3G SDI CARD
The 3G SDI card can de-embed up to 16 audio channels from an SDI (Serial Digital Interface) stream, and re-embed them (Embedder/ DeEmbedder card only) back on to the stream for onward transmission in a broadcast environment, saving high costs of external units and, of course, weight. These channels may be patched in to any input as usual.
Two versions of the card are available: DeEmbed only, or Embed/DeEmbed

Dolby E CARD
The Dolby E card decodes the audio channels from a Dolby E or Dolby Digital stream and allows them to be patched into separate inputs on the console for mixing. Each card provides two full decoder sections, and can dramatically save external hardware cost, space and weight.
Part Numbers:
RS2553SP
Compatibility:
Vi5000/7000 or Vi6 Local Rack / Compact Stagebox / Vi1 / Vi1000/2000/3000
ADAT CARD
The ADAT card provides two optical eight-channel ADAT inputs and outputs, with 48 kHz operation.

Compatibility:
Vi5000/7000 or Vi6 Local Rack / Compact Stagebox / Vi1 / Vi1000/2000/3000
A-NET CARD
The Soundcraft A-NET® 16V card provides direct digital connection on a single Cat5e cable from the Aux or Group outputs into an Aviom® A-NET® Pro16TM Series Personal Mixer (compatible with A-16II and A360).
The Pro16 System enables musicians on stage to be fed with up to 16 subgroups of instruments or vocals which they can then mix to their own taste using their own on-stage controller. The card includes a switchable test tone and stereo pair linking via DIP switches.
Part Numbers:
Local Rack/CSB - RS2497SP
Vi Stagebox - RS2498SP
Compatibility:
Vi5000/7000 or Vi6 Local Rack / Compact Stagebox / Vi1 / Vi1000/2000/3000 / Vi Stagebox
BLU LINK CARD
The BLU Link card provides up to 32 inputs and 32 outputs to/from a BSS Blu Link ring, and can be used to interface to BSS London networked audio systems, or to the PMC Personal Monitoring Controller.
The Blu Link redundant ring allows for up to 256 channels, so the Vi Blu Link card contains internal DIP switches that allow a block of 32 sequential channels from the 256 to be addressed by the card, separately selectable for inputs and outputs.
In addition the card can be set as clock host or clock client, according to system requirements. When acting as a client a jumper cable (included) must be connected from the card’s wordclock out to the consoles wordclock input.
Part Numbers:
Local Rack/CSB - 5033340-01.V
Vi Stagebox - 5037513-01.V
Compatibility:
Vi5000/7000 or Vi6 Local Rack / Compact Stagebox / Vi1 / Vi1000/2000/3000 / Vi Stagebox
DANTE CARD
The Dante card allows 64 channels to be sent to/received from a Dante network. As well as providing audio exchange with other Dante-enabled equipment, the card also allows 64 channels of audio to be connected directly to a PC or Mac computer for recording or processing, by using a standard Ethernet connection*.
Routing and setup of the network is done using an external computer running Dante Controller software (available FOC from the Audinate website).
A BNC sync output connector on the card allows the console’s wordclock input to be driven by the network clock, if required by the clocking setup.
*Requires Dante Virtual Soundcard software to be installed on the computer — one licence token supplied with each card.
Part Numbers:
Local Rack/CSB - AES67/96kHz version: 5045044.V Vi1 48kHz only version: 5076583.V

Rocknet™ Card
The Riedel Rocknet card allows up to 64 channels of audio (64 inputs/32 outputs) to be connected to a Riedel Rocknet network comprising up to 160 channels. The system allows connection of multiple Riedel stageboxes in a redundant ring configuration, and remote control of the Rocknet preamps is possible from the Vi or Si console. Multiple consoles can share the same I/O boxes and there is built-in gain-stabilisation for client consoles.
