ADC-2 Audio Analog to Digital Converter

ADC-2 Front View

The ADC-2 is a high resolution, low noise analog to digital converter for demanding professional applications.

The signal format (AES3 or S/PDIF) and the sampling frequency (44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, or 96 kHz) are selectable from the front panel controls. Clip indicators for left and right warn of input signal overload.

Analog audio input connectors are balanced XLR type, to interconnect readily with most types of equipment. The AES3 and S/PDIF output connectors are XLR and RCA types, as per respective standards.

An external word sync input is provided, in order to synchronize the internal clock with other devices. A sync output is also provided for convenience. A front panel indicator shows the presence of an external sync source.
