(EN) Step 3: Getting
started
Connect microphone or instrument audio
sources to input channels 1-8.
Connect ADAT OUT to the ADAT IN on an
ADAT equipped audio device via TOSLINK
cable. The ADA8200 will provide
8 additional channels of analog connectivity to a
digital mixer, digital recorder, or computer
audio interface.
Adjust the word clock settings. If the
ADA8200 is the master word clock for the
digital recording system, set the word
clock settings selector on the rear panel to MASTER
and designate the internal sample rate (44.1 kHz or
48 kHz) setting. The SYNC MASTER and the SYNC
LOCKED LEDs on the front panel will illuminate. If the
ADA8200 is not the master word clock for the digital
recording system, set the word clock settings
selector on the rear panel to SLAVE and designate
the word clock source (ADAT IN or WC IN) setting.
The SYNC LOCKED LED will illuminate, when a valid
sync signal has been detected.
Press the POWER switch into the
on position.
Press the +48 V PHANTOM POWER
button to engage phantom power when
using condenser microphones or active
direct boxes.
Adjust the gain level of microphone and
instrument audio sources. Begin with the
GAIN knob turned to the counterclockwise
position. Bring the level up by turning the GAIN knob
clockwise. The SIG LED will illuminate. If the signal is
too high the CLIP LED will illuminate. If this occurs,
turn the GAIN slightly counterclockwise until the CLIP
LED no longer illuminates.
Connect ADAT IN to the ADAT OUT on an
ADAT equipped audio device via TOSLINK
cable. The ADA8200 will provide
8 additional channels of analog output.
Connect analog outputs to additional
monitors for surround sound mixing or
connect to a separate mixer for additional
mixing capabilities.
