The Audient Black ADC Converter uses the latest Super High Performance converter technology to provide 24-bit/192kHz conversion in a compact form that fits into the Black Rack. The Black ADC can be used as a standalone converter for external devices as well as for the analog modules within the rack. On the rear panel, the module has analog inputs as well as an AES/EBU output XLR, and a Wordclock input. On the front panel, SPDIF, Toslink, and an additional AES/EBU XLR connector are provided.

Audient Company History

While British-based Audient is fairly new on the scene (1998), the company s founders have quite a respectable pedigree. Co-founder David Dearden has worked with David Manley (original owner of Manley Laboratories), Eddie Offord (Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Yes), and was involved in building a custom console and private studio for John Lennon for his Imagine sessions, followed by studios for George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Gus Dudgeon (producer, Elton John, David Bowie), and Chris Squire of Yes. After three years with MCI and two years with Soundcraft, David Dearden and Gareth Davies (also from Soundcraft) formed DDA (Dearden Davies Associates), a maker of high-quality analog consoles. When DDA became part of the Klark Teknik Group, he also designed the Midas XL200 live sound console and did the initial concept and design of the Midas H1000 console. In 1997 he rejoined with Gareth Davies to form Audient, whose products are typified by high performance, intelligent ergonomics, and transparent sound quality. Notable users of Audient gear include Pete Townshend s Eel Pie Studio, England s Royal Academy of Music, and Abbey Road Studios.
