Installing expansion cards (sold separately)
ATTENTION
Before installing or removing an expansion card (sold separately), disconnect the power cord from the outlet or the unit.
1.Remove the two screws from the plain panel and remove the panel itself. (If a different card is already installed, remove it.)
2.Insert the expansion card into the card slot. Align the edges of the expansion card with the white guides inside the slot and insert it securely. Push the expansion card in until its backplate reaches the rear panel of the unit, leaving no gap, and clicks into place. Do not force the card into the slot. If you cannot insert the card properly, remove it once and try reinserting it.
3.Use the two removed screws to secure the expansion card.
4.Turn the unit on, and check Menu Screen > Rear Panel Setup > SLOT SETUP screen to confirm that it has recognized the installed expansion card. (See “SLOT SETUP screen”.)
If “SLOT 1 (None)” or something similar appears, the expansion card might not be installed correctly or the screws might not be tightened securely. Insert the expansion card securely into the unit again.
CAUTION
Turn down the volume of the sound system connected to the unit before starting up or shutting down the unit.
Do not wear connected headphones when turning the unit on and off. Loud noises could damage the speakers or harm your hearing.
Before turning the power on
1.Minimize output faders along with monitor out and headphone volumes on this unit.
2.Minimize the output levels of audio sources and input levels of amplifiers connected to this unit.
Turning the power on
1.Use the POWER switch on the back of the unit to turn its power on.
After the unit starts and the startup screen is shown, the Home Screen will open.
2.Turn connected input audio source devices on.
3.Finally turn amplifiers on.
ATTENTION
After the power is turned on, an installed IF-ST2110 (ST 2110 card) needs about 2 1/2 minutes before it can input and output audio. This time will vary according to the setup of the network used by the IF-ST2110.
Turning the power off
Before turning the power off, minimize the levels of output faders along with monitor out and headphone volumes on this unit, and then follow the procedures above in reverse.
Failure to follow the correct order could result in clicking noises, for example, that might damage equipment.
CAUTION
Do not turn the power off or disconnect the power cord when the unit is operating (including recording, playing back, writing data to an SD card or USB flash drive, or saving settings to the internal memory). Doing so could cause proper recording to fail, recorded data to be lost, and sudden loud noises from monitoring equipment, which might damage the equipment, harm hearing or cause other trouble.
NOTE
We recommend executing the Save Current Settings command on the Menu Screen before turning the unit off. (See “Saving the current settings”.)
Setting the built-in clock date and time
This unit records file creation dates and times using its internal clock.

Automatic muting of monitor signals using the Location function
With the Location function, the muting of monitoring signals is as follows, which is useful for solo DJs.
Just before an input signal, or bus that it passes through, set to the same Location (excluding NONE) as MONITOR 1 or MONITOR 2 begins to be output from the MAIN L/R bus when no such signal had been output before, the corresponding monitoring signal will be automatically muted.
Just after all input signals, and buses that they pass through, set to the same Location (excluding NONE) as MONITOR 1 or MONITOR 2 stop being output from the MAIN L/R bus, the corresponding monitoring signal will be automatically unmuted.
If on route from the input signal to the MAIN L/R bus, it passes through a bus set to a different Location, muting of the monitoring signal will not be controlled.
Examples:
CH 1 module (Location: CR) MIX 1 module (Location: CR) MAIN L/R bus: Monitoring signal will be muted/unmuted
CH 1 module (Location: CR) MIX 1 module (Location: ST) MAIN L/R bus: Monitoring signal will not be muted/unmuted
CH 1 module (Location: CR) MIX 1 module (Location: NONE) MAIN L/R bus: Monitoring signal will not be muted/unmuted
If the conditions are fulfilled as a result of the following parameter operations, muting of monitoring signals will be controlled.
Changing the FADER LEVEL to/from −∞ dB (including level operation using a DCA layer)
Switching MUTE on/off (including DCA/Mute Group muting operations)
Turning on/off SEND or MAIN L/R assignments
Changing the SEND LEVEL to/from −∞ dB

Routes that pass through 2 buses
Input module MIX MIX MAIN
Input module MIX FX MAIN
Input module FX MIX MAIN
Route that passes through 3 buses
Input module MIX FX MIX MAIN
The following routes are not supported.
If a route is unsupported, the judgment is that it does not reach the MAIN L/R bus and so is not output from the MAIN L/R bus. For this reason, operating a module parameter of an unsupported route will function toward unmuting the monitoring signal.
Unsupported routes
The following routes that pass through 3 buses
Input module MX MX MX MAIN
Input module MX MX FX MAIN
Input module FX MX MX MAIN
Input module FX MX FX MAIN
Routes that pass through 4 or more buses

If control privileges for the concerned SB-16D have not been acquired by this unit, preamp settings cannot be changed to line level standard settings, so the following message will be shown.
To use SB-16Ds as a Sonicview I/O boxes, they must be mounted (registered) in advance.
See the following for operation procedures.
“Mounting of devices connected to the Dante network”
“Mounting devices that are not on the Dante network”
A maximum of 4 SB-16D units can be mounted on a Sonicview.
If an SB-16D is mounted and control privileges acquired, this unit will be able to do the following.
Control SB-16D preamps
Control SB-16D preamps using snapshot recall
Control/use GPIO ports (expansion mode)
Control Dante output routing
The Sonicview manages SB-16D mounting status by ID. If no device with the same ID as the mounted ID is connected to the Dante network, “Virtual” will be shown instead of the device name.
If multiple devices with the same ID are connected to the same Dante network (when the same ID is duplicated), “ID” will be shown in red with marks for those devices.
If the ID of a mounted device is used by more than one device, the SB-16D that was recognized by the Sonicview first will be used. However, duplicate IDs must be resolved to show them on the SB-16D control screen. (See “Resolving duplicate IDs”.)
Moreover, an SB-16D with a duplicate ID that is later recognized by the Sonicview cannot be used.
If the AUTO ROUTING button on the I/O Device page is “ON”, the mounted SB-16D I/O ports and the main unit’s built-in Dante I/O will be assigned to Dante routing automatically when mounted according to the mounting position in the Mounted Device area (). See the table in “Dante routing” for details.

Restrictions when routing during 96kHz operation with Dante Controller
When the AUTO ROUTING button is set to “OFF”, “Sonicview Dante I/O” and “ 1-16”, for example, will not be shown in the list on the right of the I/O Device page.
Instead, the message below will appear.
Use the Dante Controller for Routing. |
If the Sampling rate is set to “96kHz” on the Dante Settings page of the Dante SETUP screen, the list on the right of the I/O Device page will not show “ 33–48” and “ 49–64” in the bottom two mounting slots.
Alternatively, the message shown below will appear.
In this case, operations to acquire control privileges are necessary after mounting.
They will not be acquired automatically when mounted.
Immediately after mounting, “Pre Amp Control OFF” will be shown in the control privilege display area.
If no IF-DA64 (Dante card) is installed:
Tapping the control privilege display area will open the following message.
IF-DA64 is required to enable Pre Amp Control. [CANCEL] |
Tap the CANCEL button to close the message window and return to the previous screen. In this case, preamp control is not possible from this unit.
If an IF-DA64 (Dante card) is installed:
Tapping the control privilege display area will open the following message.
Route as follows by Dante Controller. Do you want to enable Pre Amp Control? [CANCEL] [ENABLE] |
Tap the CANCEL button to close the message window and return to the previous screen. In this case, preamp control is not possible from this unit.
Tapping the ENABLE button will set the control privilege and “Pre Amp Control” will be shown in the control privilege display area.
If another Sonicview, for example, already has SB-16D control privileges:
Tapping the control privilege display area will open the following message.
Route as follows by Dante Controller. Do you request control? Sonicview XXX has Pre Amp control. [CANCEL] [REQUEST] |
After this, control privileges can be acquired by following the procedures from step 5 in “Mounting of devices connected to the Dante network”.
By acquiring control privileges with the above methods, preamp control becomes possible from the assigned module of the SLOT that the IF-DA64 (Dante card) is installed in as an input source.
*This appears when an SB-16D is mounted in the 3rd mounting slot and an IF-DA64 (Dante card) is installed in SLOT 1.
If an SB-16D is mounted in the 4th mounting slot and an IF-DA64 (Dante card) is installed only in SLOT 2, the following message will appear.
Route as follows by Dante Controller. |
One SB-16D can be accessed simultaneously from a maximum of 10 Sonicview units.
If 10 units would be exceeded, the Sonicview that tries to access that SB-16D will fail (login failure) and will not be able to control that SB-16D.
“Logged Out” will be shown at the top right of mounted devices for which logging in failed.
Tap the button for unmounted or mounted devices to show the following messages that explain generally why login failed.
Tap the OK button in the message to close it.
The content of the message depends on the reason login failed.
If 10 units are already logged in
Login failed. Exceeded maximum number of connections. |
If login was not possible because of a communication error
Login failed. TCP Error. |
If logging in fails when an SB-16D is mounted, mounting will be executed, but the above messages will be shown.
The following items are possible or not possible using mounted devices with which login failed.
Possible
Input Dante Routing from the SB-16D to the Sonicview can be set with this unit, and the input sound of this SB-16D can be input to this unit.
Setting routing with Dante Controller makes inputting and outputting sound from this SB-16D possible.
Not possible
Output Dante routing from the Sonicview to the SB-16D cannot be set with this unit. For this reason, sound from this unit cannot be output from this SB-16D.
Acquiring control privileges and changing/confirming preamp and other settings are not possible.
Responding to login failure errors
If any Sonicview units are showing the operation screen for that unmounted SB-16D, close that screen.
If that SB-16D is mounted on more than 10 Sonicview units, unmount it from a Sonicview unit that does not need it.
If already mounted and logging in failed, after doing the above, unmount it and then mount it again.
If the above responses do not resolve the issue, turn the SB-16D power off once and wait a few seconds before turning the power on again.
Synchronizing audio settings
If the Sonicview has control privileges after mounting, the SB-16D sampling rate and reference level (both analog and digital) settings will automatically be synchronized with those of that Sonicview. Moreover, it will also be set as the device for snapshot recall and set as the device with priority for Dante output routing.
Routing of Dante I/O for mounted SB-16Ds and the Sonicview can be done automatically.
On the other hand, routing can be left to Dante Controller and the Sonicview can be set to not do routing.
Use the AUTO ROUTING button on the I/O Device page to set this. (See “ AUTO ROUTING button”.)
To conduct Dante routing from the Sonicview for SB-16D units mounted on it, set the AUTO ROUTING button to “ON”.
Dante routing will be set automatically when mounted.
In this case, depending on the SB-16D mounting position, the mounted SB-16D I/O port and this unit’s built-in Dante I/O will be routed for Dante automatically when mounting occurs as shown below.
When Sync Clock is 48 kHz
Mounting position in Mounted Device area |
Routing destination |
Top |
Built-in Dante I/O 1–16 of this unit |
2nd from top |
Built-in Dante I/O 17–32 of this unit |
3rd from top |
Built-in Dante I/O 33–48 of this unit |

This will not be routed automatically. Use Dante Controller to route Dante I/O 1–16 for the IF-DA64 installed in this unit and Dante I/O 1–16 for the mounted SB-16D. |
4th from top |
This will not be routed automatically. Use Dante Controller to route Dante I/O 17–32 for the IF-DA64 installed in this unit and Dante I/O 1–16 for the mounted SB-16D. |
NOTE
When the AUTO ROUTING button is changed from “OFF” to “ON”, if executing automatic Dante routing changes the Dante input routing of this unit, the following message will appear to confirm whether to match the routing with the mounting status.
Devices other than this Sonicview are routed to the mounted SB-16D. Do you want to KEEP the routing? Or Change the routing to this Sonicview? [KEEP] [CHANGE] |
Tapping the KEEP button will switch the AUTO ROUTING button to “ON” but Dante routing settings will be retained as is. If an SB-16D is mounted after the AUTO ROUTING button is switched to “ON”, routing will occur automatically.
Tapping the CHANGE button will change the Dante routing according to the mounting status. In this case, output routing from the Sonicview to other Dante devices will be retained as is, and output routing from the Sonicview to mounted SB-16D unit will be added.
Example of Dante routing when the AUTO ROUTING button is OFF
Dante routing state after the AUTO ROUTING button is switched to “ON” from the above state and the CHANGE button is tapped
To conduct Dante routing for the Sonicview from Dante Controller, set the AUTO ROUTING button to “OFF”.
This will enable routing from Dante Controller.
When set to conduct Dante routing from Dante Controller, routing settings cannot be conducted from the Sonicview even for SB-16D units.
NOTE
Routing for mounted SB-16Ds will be retained as is. Routing will not occur automatically if an SB-16D is mounted after the AUTO ROUTING button is set to “OFF”.
Preamp control as a Sonicview I/O expansion
From the operation screen of the module that has the built-in Dante input port routed, input connector preamps of SB-16Ds that have been routed by Dante to this Dante input port can be operated.
In this case, they can be operated in the same way as the built-in analog input preamps of the Sonicview.
Only if all the following conditions are all met, preamps can be operated on the Home Screen, MODULE (OVERVIEW) screen and MODULE (INPUT) screen.
A Dante port is assigned to the module
The SB-16D Dante port is routed to this Dante port
The SB-16D that is routed to this Dante port is mounted on the Sonicview and control privileges are held, or it is virtually mounted
Example of appearance when mounted and control privileges are held
In this case the same preamp settings will be shown as would be when routing the built-in analog input jacks.

Dante is a transmission protocol developed by Audinate.
Using networks based on gigabit Ethernet standards, it enables multichannel (512 IN/512 OUT) transmission and high precision, for example.
Check the Audinate website for details about Dante.
In order to set up and use this unit, you must also set up the Ethernet network that it is connected to, a computer that runs Dante Controller and other devices that support Dante.
Dante controller is not necessary for use, however, when used with an SB-16D.
LAN cables used for connections
Use STP cables that are category 5e or higher.
Both crossover and straight cables can be used.
ATTENTION
This unit is not compatible with 100Mbps Ethernet switching hubs. Always use switching hubs that support Gigabit Ethernet.
NOTE
When the Dante Network Addressing setting is AUTO (DHCP), set the computer to set the IP address automatically.
When the Dante Network Addressing setting is STATIC, set the computer to match the Dante and network address.
Switched (daisy chain) connection
Dante devices can be daisy-chained when there are few connected devices and when not using a switching hub. Connect them as shown below.
Switched (daisy chain) connection example
NOTE
When using a switched (daisy chain) connection, connect to either the PRIMARY or SECONDARY connector.
If the number of connected devices increases, raising the latency setting will be necessary.
Redundant connection
For recording situations where retakes are not possible, including live performances, a connection set up like the following uses two completely independent primary and secondary networks.
Redundant connection example
NOTE
Settings for switched (daisy chain) and redundant connections do not change automatically. Tap Menu Screen > Rear Panel Setup > Dante Setup to open the Dante SETUP Screen, or change the settings on the Dante Controller Network Config screen.
ATTENTION
The primary and secondary networks cannot be connected on the same LAN (VLAN).

2msec |
The transmission speed of the transmitting device is 100 Mbps. |
5msec |
Use this maximum selectable latency value when creating a large-scale network. |
ATTENTION
This unit is not compatible with 100Mbps Ethernet switching hubs. Always use switching hubs that are compatible with Gigabit Ethernet.
Changing the name of a device will clear audio routing settings. For this reason, we recommend changing device names to names that are easy to identify before setting audio routings.
Depending on network connection conditions, setting the latency to a value higher than the guideline might be necessary.
NOTE
This can also be set on the unit.
When using a switched (daisy chain) connection, which does not use a switching hub, set the latency according to the number of Dante devices that signals pass-through as shown below.
Switched (daisy chain) connection example
NOTE
The Dante module in this unit and IF-DA64 Dante cards (sold separately) have built-in switching hubs.
For this reason, when counting Dante devices, count this unit and IF-DA64 cards as two devices each.

Precautions when using an IF-DA64
The Dante module built into this unit, an IF-DA64 Dante card installed in a SLOT and the unit’s master clock must be synchronized. Do this as follows.
When the unit’s master clock is not Dante (INT, WORD, etc.)
Use Dante Controller to set the Sync to External setting to “ON” for both the built-in Dante module and the IF-DA64.
Use Dante Controller to set the Preferred Leader setting to “ON” for either one of them. (We recommend using the built-in Dante module.)
When the unit’s master clock is Dante
Use Dante Controller to set the Sync to External setting to “ON” for the IF-DA64.
Use Dante Controller to set the Preferred Leader setting to “ON” for a Dante module other than an IF-DA64. (We recommend using the built-in Dante module.)
When an IF-AE16 (AES/EBU) card is installed
SRC ON/OFF buttons
These turn the SRC (sample rate converter) ON (default) and OFF for each signal line.
The selected buttons will be highlighted.
NOTE
SRC cannot be set to ON for the signal line selected as the master clock. For this reason, the signal line selected as the master clock will be shown as follows.

Options: 48K Feame, 96K Frame (default)
The selected button will be highlighted.
ATTENTION
A MADI signal with a 96kHz sampling frequency and 48K Frame type cannot be distinguished from a MADI signal with a 48kHz sampling frequency.
For this reason, a 48K Frame MADI input signal that does not match the sampling frequency of the receiving device cannot be received as proper audio data.
When using a 48K Frame MADI signal, always match the sampling frequencies of the signal sending and receiving devices.
NOTE
The signal from the IF-MA64/EX MADI COAXIAL IN connector is output through its MADI COAXIAL THRU connector whether the unit is on or off.
When the unit is turned on/off, however, the signal output from the MADI COAXIAL THRU connector will be momentarily disrupted.
For this reason, time turning the unit on/off carefully when the signal output from the MADI COAXIAL THRU connector is being used by a connected device.
MADI COAXIAL EQUALIZER buttons
Set the equalizer for MADI COAXIAL input signals.
When an IF-MA64/EX or IF-MA64/BN is connected and a low-voltage MADI COAXIAL signal source or long BNC cable is being used, proper reception is not possible sometimes.
In this case, try setting MADI COAXIAL EQUALIZER to OFF.
Options: OFF, ON (default)
The selected button will be highlighted.
