Was this Expansion Card released EDS-D2 AES/EBU MEC anytime ???

Did find it in this article :
https://www.rapmag.com/index.php/archives/1990s/341-98/nov98 /1750-test-drive-ensoniq-paris-professional-audio-recording- integrated-system

You can read that in last paragraph of the Link :

Some of the items on the options menu include the ADI ADAT Optical Digital Interface with ADAT Sync ($499) which features full ADAT compatibility and includes two ADAT multi-channel fiber optic connectors, (8 channels IN and 8 channels OUT), plus a single 9-pin D-type synchronization connector. The EDS-ADI allows sample-synchronous digital transfers of up to 8 channels of audio data to and from a chain of up to 16 ADATs. The EDS-D2 AES/EBU MEC Module (target release, December 1998) offers 2 XLR connectors capable of sending or receiving up to four channels of AES/EBU digital audio to or from PARIS. Patching and signal routing to and from the EDS-D2 is accomplished from the Patch Bay Window. An optional sample rate converter is available allowing two of the four channels to apply sample rate conversion to the digital audio.

Like many things that were planned for Paris, I do not believe it really made it to the market. There may be some floating around out there, I have seen odd things show up on ebay. Many years ago Doug Joyce did have an AES/EBU box made and was going to sell them, but his source dried up. Doug Wellington may still be considering building hardware for Paris, but I'm not sure about an AES/EBU box.

I don't know, you could try contacting both Dougs to see what they have, but I don't believe it is going to go any where. Everybody gets excited about new hardware for Paris when the subject comes up, but it never happens. The numbers for such a project are just not there. As for Doug Joyce, he sold off his Paris systems years ago. You would have to contact him to see if he still has schematics for the AES box, who knows.

Hiya everybody!

So, I'm lying around the house for the next few weeks, got a TKA (total knee arthroplasty) done a few days back. (Some people will do anything to get a few days off of work, eh?)

I don't actually have schematics for any of the PARIS hardware, but I've managed to collect quite a bit of information over the years. Given enough time, I'm sure we could make up an AES/EBU module.

Regards,
Doug

Hi Doug,

can you share some of the information with us ?
So i try to get more know how about the Pins into Mec.
So i like to figure out a S/Pdif Board too.

Because i like to connect and manage the S/PDIF by Paris Hardware.

Do you mean that is possible to release ?

Best regards !
Dan

I'll be happy to share what I have. The hardest part for me is finding everything. Most of my work was done on my old MAC G3 tower, but I haven't booted it in a long time. I'll have to find all the pieces and get it going again. Some of my work was with a Macbook, but the battery expanded and bent the entire chassis of that poor thing.

I've also been told that there are a lot of bad links on my web site, so it seems I've got a bunch of stuff to do. Stay tuned...

Regards,
Doug
