Re: [Avid-L2] Demux SDI to analog audio

A non-cheap alternative, the MOTU video products work in standalone. You
can program which input is active (SDI) and it will output the de-embedded
audio over both analog and AES (8 channels each). I know the V4HD did this
when I had it, I assume the HDX-SDI does as well. Might get some other use
out of it as well...
