Description:

Professional 24 bit/96 kHz Stereo AD-Converter


The ADI-96 PRO is RME's most outstanding project: a professional 24 bit/96 kHz stereo AD-converter with servo balanced line and microphone inputs. The technical data are of the best you can get today. Modern 24 bit ADCs with up to 96 kHz sample frequency and real 117 dBA dynamic range, a variable frequency synthesizer PLL in double speed technology (Low Jitter Design), CDSr (Constant Double Speed) for highest sound quality even when sampling lower than 64 kHz, Analog Processing or clipless Digital Processing with Look Ahead, and a hi-speed DSP calculating in 48 bit/96 kHz make up a powerful, easy to use device.

Use the following feature list to compare our ADI-96 PRO with other Line/Mic Preamps or AD-converters, and you will agree: The ADI-96 PRO has the best price/performance ratio!

The integrated DSP gives you several functions at the place where you really need them, in realtime and without the need of later editing the audio material. Think of making exceptional microphone recordings while having hi-pass filter, De-esser, Noise Gate, Leveler, Limiter, Phase, Delay and M/S Processing simultaneously at hand. Also when digitizing line signals - the ADI-96 PRO does this in an extreme quality - a DC filter, Limiter and Expander will positively affect your recordings and the digital result.

Processing the data in the digital domain avoids all unwanted effects typical for analog circuitry, like additional noise, distortions, changes in frequency response and deviations between both channels. Thanks to its clear structured menu and a big 2x20 character LC-display the configuration is done in seconds. The DSP also controls the integrated Peak Level Meter and the Correlation Meter.

The back of the ADI-96 PRO offers several servo balanced inputs. The microphone inputs are available as XLR, the line inputs as XLR and 1/4" TRS jacks. The line audio path is build in a completely balanced design, from the jack to the ADC. The digital outputs in AES/EBU (XLR) and SPDIF (optical/coaxial) format allow a connection to all other units with digital inputs. The BNC jack can be configured as word clock input and output, the ADI-96 PRO will operate as master or slave respectively.
