David L. Bytheway · SMPTE Journal · 1990
Digital audio hardware is becoming more common in broadcasting. The need for an all-digital system that can successfully interface with different kinds of equipment is apparent. Since not all equipment is digital, however, a system that handles both high-quality analog and digital signals is needed.
