Digital Interfaces
Besides the five presets there are many more routing
possibilities. In order to configure these settings press
MENU and then select routing. Please refer to the
chapter Routing for further information.
MADI
MADI is a very popular audio interface offering 64 channels at
a maximum cable length of 2 kilometers!
Furthermore, when using more than one A16 MK-II, it is also
possible to daisy chain the MADI cable. In this case the
device's output will be connected to the next device's input.
Hence you can connect, for example, four A16 MK-II in a row
in order to use the maximum number of 64 MADI channels.
However, in case of higher frequencies the cable's bandwidth
is not sufficient for the maximum number of channels. The
following table gives an overview of the bandwith:
Frequency MADI Channels
32kHz, 44,1kHz, 48kHz 64 (56) channels
88,2kHz, 96kHz 32 (28) channels
192kHz 16 (14) channels
An older MADI specification used only 56 channels instead of
the 64 channels being used today, giving the advantage, that a
higher variation of the sampling rate was permissible
