OVERVIEW ADI-4 DD
RME's ADI-4 DD is a simplified and highly cost-efficient smaller version of the renowned ADI-8 DD. Built into a space-saving half-rack space enclosure, the ADI-4 DD includes all of the advanced technology of the ADI-8 DD, except for sample rate conversion and TDIF ports.
The actual states of incoming and outgoing signals and ongoing operations within the unit are displayed by LEDs in an easily overseeable way. SyncCheck®, already found in other RME products, not only shows if an input signal is locked, but also if multiple inputs are in synchronicity. Furthermore RME's SyncAlign® technology prevents accidental errors of ± 1 sample misalignment between the AES/EBU inputs. The AES output signal can be set to Professsional or Consumer subcode. Channel 1/2 can optionally be received and output optically (TOSLINK).
RME's SteadyClock™ technology guarantees an excellent performance in all clock modes. Its highly efficient jitter suppression enables the ADI-4 DD to refresh and clean up any clock signal, and to provide the clock signal as reference clock at the word clock output. Additionally, our Intelligent Clock Control (ICC) will maintain the last sample rate detected as valid in case of fault and loss of input signal. The device can be stacked without limit, all devices will be sample synchronous by using word clock. All settings are stored at power-off.
CONNECTIVITY
The device basically consists of two converters: four AES-3 inputs to double ADAT outputs, and double ADAT inputs to four AES-3 outputs. The double ADAT ports enable full 8 channel support, from 32 kHz up to 96 kHz (S/MUX). The unit provides one XLR I/O directly. A DB-25 connector allows for a use of industry standard AES-3 I/O breakout cables. Setting an internal connector easily changes the DB-25 connector to meet the pinout of Tascam, Yamaha and Euphonix cables.
Application examples:
AES/EBU frontend for RME's digital I/O cards (ADAT optical I/O)
Serves as 8-channel AES and ADAT I/O for all digital mixing desks with ADAT or AES ports
Allows to operate up to 4 SPDIF or AES devices
Converts between AES-3, SPDIF and SPDIF optical
Removes jitter from AES-3 and ADAT signals
Conversion modes (selection):
8-channel AES to ADAT optical converter (96 kHz)
2-channel AES to 8-channel ADAT splitter (96 kHz)
8-channel ADAT to AES converter (96 kHz)
2-channel AES to 8-channel AES splitter (96 kHz)
4-channel AES Double Wire to AES Single Wire converter (96 kHz)
4-channel AES Single Wire to AES Double Wire converter (96 kHz)
All in all the ADI-4 DD shows an unsurpassed flexibility together with a sensational price point. It is a perfect interface solution in all areas, from home user up to broadcast applications.
