Hi,

Can anyone tell me the impedance of the Xite headphone socket?

Cheers

Good question.
I can guess but only because of the quality using 3 way IEM"s. I would say 8-50 Ohm's, but I will ask them today.
I don't have that much audible roll off on my 13.3 Ohm IEM's, and my headphone set is 32 Ohms, so hence the 8 - 50 Ohm is an estimate.
It's a great question though, because knowing if you can drive multiple headsets from a single socket is important if that is what you're thinking.

isn't there a spec sheet somewhere? I did not install/unpack the xite software, because I don't have one, but afair there must be a manual set in the folder where it installs to.
does it contain something about hardware specs, jimmy?

I am waiting for a return reciept for a purchase and an email, but I will check now as I have the DAW up and running.
I hit that before I even make coffee...

Edit: There is a great Scope 5 revision, but nothing for the XITE-1. I should get a return correspondance within the hour since I attached my Modular IV payment...
I was emailing Ralf and Holger everyday about things for the first week or so when I got mine last April, but it ran so smoothly, w/ the exception of the VDAT blue screens, that I was concerned with using it live. It would be nice to have a small pdf for the XITE-1 though.

Knowing the output impedance is important. I use a Hafler pre-amp when I record into Nuendo using Genelecs and it sounds awesome. But at my crib I use powered nearfields, IEM's and a pair of Yamaha 32 Ohm Cans. I could always buy another headphone if I needed to, but I would love to see what multiple sets of IEM's could do w/ the headphone out.
The Headphone Destination module is a very useful routing option.

Thanks for contacting the guys, I'll not pester them then.

Mod IV's up for sale? I can't see it yet.

No it isn't ready.
My future XFiancee asked me what I wanted for Christmas.
So before she changes her mind I gave her a PayPal link, after I begged to pay in advance.
They are use to this from me so naturally they accepted.
I would love an email w/ keys on the 24th though..........Ankyu................

Brotha' Man Feg,
The output is 30 Ohms.

Jimmy, cheers for getting the info.

May snow fall on your porch come the 25th

OK, since we're on Headphones, what the heck is the Hardware IO called "Phones Source?" Can I actually capture the ringing in my ears?

It could be a spare line input that works when you are not using phones? electronics is clever these days

sure it is - that onboard auto-detect thingy of my PC could drive me nuts in a few seconds

cheers, Tom

hahah it doesnt have to work like that. could just work as a line in or headphone out depending what i/o in scope is connected and if both maybe then one gets precedence.

just guessing here though

... hahah... you seen it yourself, didn't you ?
bla bla bla has changed, wanna store bla ? Detect bla bla - Change to bla bla bla ...

on a serious note, I'm really curious about the IO section of the XITE
would be extremely convenient to have all that in such a small footprint, no cables etc...

cheers, Tom

what about shopping one for christmas?

There we have it. it does nothing

The Mic Pre out and Headphone in are buzzkill modules...
