Connections of the RME ADI-8 DS Mk III
The ADI-8 DS Mk III is built with a solid 19-inch housing and is only 1 unit high, making it a neat addition to your rack. It's loaded with eight analogue inputs and outputs with both balanced Jack connections and a DB-25 connection. Connect your digital devices via ADAT and / or AES / EBU connectors and in addition, it has a Wordclock connection and can function in both master and slave mode.
The Digital Patchbay
The digital patchbay of the ADI-8 DS Mk III is indispensable. In addition to AD / DA conversion, the ADI-8 can be used for a number of other purposes. Convert ADAT to AES, AES to ADAT or crosswise while monitoring everything you're doing with precision via the analog outputs. The ADAT outputs have a "copy mode" with which the signal can be split and sent to two different ADAT devices. For such precise quality, this converter is almost childishly simple to use.
