  How do I get 5.1 audio out of the Decklink Extreme AES/EBU?

  Posted by Bob Stovall on May 21, 2007 at 1:28 am

  I’m using a Mac Pro with Final Cut Studio, and I’m wondering if I can get 5.1 sound out of the decklink card. When I use a Firewire interface (M-audio firewire 410) to output audio, it is out of sync with the video coming out of the decklink card. So I guess the alternative is to find out how to get AES/EBU to output the 12 channels it says it can do in HD. I can’t afford an HDCAM deck with 12 outputs, so how would any of you suggest I go about doing something like this? I really just want to get 5.1 going and in sync for the FInal Cut Studio 2 release.

  Thanks so much for any help!

  Hi Bob,

  The digital audio outputs of the DeckLink Extreme is 2 channels only.
