Provides digital outputs for all 8 OctoPre channels, which operate over the full sample frequency range (44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96kHz) and can be dithered to 16-, 20-, or 24-bit depths depending upon the destination. External word clock synchronization is possible using the rear-panel BNC connector. The card features 2 ADAT-type lightpipe output connectors. For speeds up to 48kHz both connectors transmit all 8 channels simultaneously. And that's just the beginning, it also provides AES and S/PDIF format outputs via a 9-pin D-type connector on the rear panel. As with the ADAT-type outputs, the full range of sample rates and bit depths are available, and the converter may be synchronized to an external word clock source if required. To access the digital signals from the 9-pin D-type AES/S/PDIF output connector, the A/D card must be purchased with either an AES or S/PDIF D-type conversion cable, available separately. Either 8 AES or 8 S/PDIF outputs can be used simultaneously with 8 ADAT outputs and the OctoPre's analog outputs.
