The EXi8's preamps supply +48V phantom power for condenser mics and can be controlled remotely from MTX/MRX series processors via Ethernet cable. The EXi8 ships with a power cord, eight 3-pin Euroblock connectors, and eight cable ties.YDIF Digital Audio Transmission Format YDIF is a digital audio transmission format that uses an Ethernet cable to send and receive up to 16 channels of audio and word clock. Up to eight YDIF devices (maximum of seven for the EXi8 and/or EXo8) can be connected to expand the number of input/output channels available for one system.Installation Flexiblity The expansion unit can be installed to locations where only either input or output is required.MTX Editor Software To make the EXi8/EXo8 parameter settings, use the system's dedicated application software (MTX Editor: available for Windows OS only). The dedicated application software makes it easy to design a system and make (or adjust) its settings, resulting in the creation of an overall system design.
