Behringer Ultragain Digital ADA8200
8 In/8 Out ADAT Audio Interface
with MIDAS Mic Preamplifiers
Overview
The 8 In/8 Out ULTRAGAIN ADA8200 ADAT Audio Interface builds on the proud legacy of our ADA8000 – which is one of our all-time, best-selling products. Now, you’re probably thinking, “If they sell so many ADA8000s, why are they changing them?” The short answer... we made it better – in a really big way! The incredible ADA8200 features stunningly-accurate, reference-class Cirrus Logic A/D - D/A converters and 8 Award-winning MIDAS-designed Mic Preamps – making it the natural choice of professional musicians and audio engineers alike. Your recording tracks will sound just as amazing as you imagined them – when you lay them down with the ADA8200!
The ADA8200 is sublimely easy to operate, fits neatly
into a single rack space and, thanks to the 8 MIDAS-designed mic preamps with
switchable +48 V Phantom Power and integrated Cirrus Logic 24-bit A/D - D/A
converters, you get incredibly detailed, pristine performance. Signal
conversion takes place at your choice of 44.1 or 48 kHz with full 24-bit
resolution. The ADAT Inputs and Outputs can be operated independently, as long
as you use an identical word clock signal. And ADA8200’s operating frequency
range is an ultra-wide 10 Hz to 24 kHz – at a very respectable, 48 kHz sampling
rate. Put simply, the ULTRAGAIN ADA8200 is the professional’s edge.
MIDAS - The Legend in Sound Quality
