Klark Teknik DN32 ADAT

After doing a fairly rapid search for an expansion board for the X32 Compact, I came across this well priced and quality-build ADAT expansion perfect for my studio requirements (replacing a lightpiped Macke d8b was a task in itself) - seeing that the X-ADAT by Behringer was at a great price already, then stumbled across Klark Teknik's version, which basically is the same bar the manufacture print on the back plane - and after a little more reading confirmation this works in Midas M32 and Behringer X32 mixers - superb!

Swapping out the X32 USB board and plugging this is is child's play (make sure you get the board to sit on the two runners at the opening for a very fast plug-n-play). Two screws on the side, pull out, push in, screw in, plug in your optical cables (check your outer plug size as mine were a little larger and I had to do some surgical 'shaving' - maybe the sockets are a little closer than normal but due to the real-estate available), and turn on the X32, fires up and accepts the card in seconds. Workclock is solid too, just match up your sample rate to your system and you're golden.

Summary - if you're looking for a suitable expansion without breaking the bank, you can't go wrong with this one!

I have an Behringer X32 Rack for studio artist monitoring coupled with a Lynx Aurora 16 recording AD Converter. There is a Lynx ADAT daughter card in my Mac hooked up to the Lynx AES16e main card there. I needed for my Lynx system to be able to communicate with the X32 via ADAT in order to send monitor mixes to any artist listening on their Behringer personal monitor. I could have achieved this with analog cables but ADAT seemed a much neater solution.

The X32 did not come with an ADAT card so I used the DN32 in place of the USB card that came pre-installed with it. Installation was extraordinarily easy and painless. Also - the Klark Teknik version is much cheaper than the Behringer card and is essentially the same - as far as I can tell. It has worked perfectly and I am very pleased thus far. Highly recommended.

Ich habe mir das Adat Modul zugelegt, um meine DAWs (Cubase und Cantabile) über mein betagtes aber immer noch hervorragendes RME Muliface auch mit niedriger Latenz an meinen Midas M32R zu koppeln.

Der Einbau war in 2 Minuten erledigt und die Konfiguration ein Kinderspiel. Besonders erfreulich für mich war die Möglichkeit direkt per Word-Clock zu synchronisieren.

Dass dann noch genau passend die neue Midas v4.0 Firware zur Verfügung stand mit der der Zwang zum blockweisen Routing aufgehoben wurde, passte perfekt.

Zusammengefasst: zu diesem Preis ein absoluter Hammer!!
