The Digital Interface Handbook is a thoroughly detailed manual for those who need to get to grips with digital audio and video systems. Now that installations in the broadcasting, multimedia and music industries are increasingly all digital, engineers and operators working in thee industries need to become more familiar with digital interfaces, their benefits and pitfalls. Digital interfaces are the key to maintaining programme quality throughout the signal chain.

In the Digital Interface Handbook, Francis Rumsey and John Watkinson bring together their combined experience to shed light on the differences between audio interfaces such as AES/EBU, SPDIF, SDIF, MADI and other manufacturer-specific implementations. They show how to make devices 'talk to each' in the digital domain despite their subtle differences. They also include detailed coverage of all the regularly used digital video interfaces.

A great deal more information on digital video will be found in this second edition. Now that the subject has reached a greater degree of standardization and equipment is entering service in greater quantities, it is possible to include more on the practical applications of video, including how to go about installing equipment, including a discussion of cable lengths.
written by the leading audio and video experts in the field
a useful reference work and tutorial for engineers
