User manual LUCID AUDIO ADA8824 SONIC BROCHURE

[. . . ] ADA8824 (ADAT) and ADA8824 (Sonic) A perfectly transparent signal every time. CONNECTING AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT. Lightpipe, or fiber-optic, connections are becoming a popular standard for digital audio transfer. Using multiple channels simultaneously is incredibly convenient, and the Alesis ADAToptical standard supports full 24-bit resolution. [. . . ] The ADAT version of the ADA8824 integrates seamlessly with all your ADAT lightpipe-equipped digital audio gear, including mixers, recorders, and computer interface cards, such as the Alesis ADAT-PCR. Using this fiber-optic connection, you can transfer multiple channels of data more easily and cleanly than ever before. If your studio uses SonicStudio workstations, you can get the same elegant interface using the Sonic version of the ADA8824. We designed this unit in close collaboration with Sonic Solutions engineers, so the box is fully compatible with their hardware and software. ADA8824 (ADAT) Key Features · Eight analog I/O channels and eight digital I/O channels, with precision metering of analog and digital I/O · Full 24-bit A/D and D/A resolution · Digitally controlled, precision analog I/O gain control · ADAT-optical I/O and ADAT-sync I/O connectors ADA8824 CAPABILITIES Multiple channels for maximum flexibility. The ADA8824 provides eight channels of 24-bit A/D and D/A conversion, eight channels of AES/EBU I/O, and two channels of S/PDIF I/O. If you want more than eight channels of digital and analog I/O and you have the required software and computer speed, simply add more ADA8824s. The ADA8824's 24-bit resolution provides the utmost in quality and clarity. Its over-sampling 24-bit A/D technology produces 113dBu (A-weighted) of dynamic range, providing the sonic detail required by leading producers and engineers. The ADA8824 is the only product of its kind featuring digitally controlled analog attenuators on both inputs and outputs, so you can adjust operating levels from your computer screen via a graphical user interface. In addition, fifteen segment LED meters on the front panel of the ADA8824 provide multi-color level displays of analog and digital inputs and outputs. Your internal A/D sample rate can be set at either 48kHz or 44. 1kHz. The ADA8824 can also be locked to an external AES reference signal or Word Clock. [. . . ] The ADA8824 is compatible with SonicStudio software accessories and add-on application modules, such as Studio Suite, CD Mastering Suite, Audio Post Suite, and NoNOISE ® Production Suite.
