Description
BSS BLUDIGITAL-IN I/O card B-Stock
The BSS BLUDIGITAL-IN is a professional-grade digital audio interface card engineered for seamless integration into the Soundweb London BLU series of networked audio processors. This card delivers transparent digital connectivity with exceptional signal integrity, making it essential for studio setups and production facilities requiring multiple stereo digital audio sources without compromise to audio fidelity.
Digital Connectivity & Format Support
The card features two Combicon connectors providing simultaneous AES/EBU and S/PDIF connectivity across four audio channels per connector. Its flexible configuration accommodates 2 Stereo AES/EBU signals, 1 Stereo AES/EBU + 1 Stereo S/PDIF signal, or 2 Stereo S/PDIF signals, adapting to virtually any professional digital audio environment without requiring external converters. Route sources from multiple digital gear—mastering converters, outboard processors, or digital summing consoles—directly into your processing chain.
Audio Performance & Compatibility
Audio integrity is paramount: the card delivers THD+N less than -140dB with properly terminated impedance (110 ohms for AES/EBU, 75 ohms for S/PDIF). Support for 48kHz and 96kHz sample rates, coupled with sample rate conversion capabilities spanning 8kHz to 96kHz, ensures compatibility across legacy and current digital systems. The card populates any of the four available slots on BLU-800, BLU-805, BLU-806, BLU-320, BLU-325, BLU-326, BLU-160, BLU-120, BLU-80, BLU-32, or BLU-16 processors, giving you maximum flexibility in your monitoring, mixing, and mastering signal flow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean?
B-Stock means the unit is fully functional and new, covered by the full manufacturer warranty, but carries a minor cosmetic blemish that has no effect on performance, audio quality, or operation. It sells for less than a first-quality unit because of that cosmetic mark alone.
Which Soundweb London BLU processors is this card compatible with?
The BLUDIGITAL-IN works with all Soundweb London BLU series processors from the BLU-16 through BLU-800, including BLU-16, BLU-32, BLU-80, BLU-120, BLU-160, BLU-320, BLU-325, BLU-326, BLU-805, and BLU-806. It fits any of the four available card slots on any of these units.
What digital formats and configurations does this card support?
The card features two Combicon connectors and supports AES/EBU on Connector 1 and S/PDIF on Connector 2, with four audio channels per connector. You can configure it for 2 Stereo AES/EBU signals, 1 Stereo AES/EBU plus 1 Stereo S/PDIF, or 2 Stereo S/PDIF, depending on your source gear.
What sample rates does the BLUDIGITAL-IN handle?
The card supports native 48kHz and 96kHz operation and includes full-range sample rate conversion covering 8kHz through 96kHz, so it seamlessly bridges legacy and current digital systems without external converters.
How does this card perform in terms of audio quality?
The BLUDIGITAL-IN delivers THD+N below -140dB with properly terminated impedance (110 ohms for AES/EBU, 75 ohms for S/PDIF), ensuring exceptional signal integrity and transparent digital connectivity typical of studio-grade broadcast and installed-system gear.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $18 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states.
