Hi folks - We currently have the Cobranet I/O for the AB64 and that is quite popular with people who are looking at the future but we are also adding...
RME is the only company I know that even has any type of off the shelf MADI I/O boxes. But I don't know anyone that uses them. Just out of curiosity, why does...
... Because that seems to be the physical limit for the connector and component density. I have asked for more.... ... Yes, I know but I've also been told...
... I seriously doubt that. Certainly there are recording studios that have more than 16 channels of ADAT I/O in their DAWs that talk to a recording console...
... Wordclock is of course the biggest problem and many devices have trouble keeping in sync if wc drifts too much. I'm not even really sure how well the ADAT...
I have been given a quote for an ADAT card that can plug in to the digital I/O slot of the AB64. It's not cheap but could well be worth it. Each card would ...
Well, let's put it out there and see what happens. To give us some wiggling room we could call it "preliminary pricing". ... From: "Charlie Richmond"...

I have a love-hate relationship with ADAT interfaces: far too often they cause more problems than they solve, particularly with Yamaha's implementation on...
John, The only problem I've had on occasions is with proper transmission of the word clock from one desk to another. (when locking together several small...
I would think that if you could actually afford a 32 or 64 channel Audiobox 64 set up, the cost of the digital I/O card is pretty insignificant. And for those...
YMMV indeed. As I said, when it works, it's fine, but when it doesn't it's not fun at all, which is why I think that there needs to be some serious testing. ...
... I would disagree with that fairly highly. There are all kinds of "grades" of ADAT mic pres. Some I'm sure are crap. Some can cost your first born child....
... OK, thanks for informing me. The above is simply what I was told a while ago. ... And this is the biggest problem I have with investing in this right now....
... Based on the responses from the first post, we have decided to design this as a two part unit - a single card that plugs into one of the digital I/O slots...
Hi folks - I had a long chat with Jimmy Kawalek at EtherSound and they look like the best bet for coming up with various digital interfaces to the AB64. They...
Fostex already has some units that do that. If they are actually are shipping that stuff. http://www.netcira.com/docs/home/netcira_front.shtml There are some...
Hi, We're currently investigating different options for running experiments in audio-visual sound localisation. What we need is a system that would allow...

... The AB64 will certainly do this for up to 64 channels of playback. ... Individual delay adjustments are dynamically controllable in single sample ...
It depends on how you define "similar". The basic concept of syncronized tracks (which are locked on a sample basis, considerably better than millisecond...
Charlie, This sounds like a "marriage made in Heaven" for the AB64. Good luck with this! Merv ... From: "Charlie Richmond" <charlier@...> ...

I sent this email to Charlie Richmond and Loren Wilton privatly. Charlie has asked me to forward it to the list. To possiblly stimulate conversation. Although...
Hi, Thank you all for the great feedback. We'll look into the technicalities. Cheers, Simon...

If you throw enough hardware it is estimated that SoundMan would poop out well above a piddly eight in/eight out scenario. Loren tests routinely with MOTU 828...
... Of course, but I only suggested limiting the number of live inputs.... not the number of outputs, because: 1. I figured that way you wouldn't be trying to...
Richard, I think your suggestion to get SoundMan out there sooner rather then later as an SFX alternative is a good one, but I think it's the UI that will help...
