Digital Interfaces
Frequency Grouping Mode*
48kHz (32kHz, 44,1kHz) no 48k frame
96kHz (88,2kHz) no 96k frame
96kHz (88,2kHz) 2 channels each 48k frame
192kHz 4 channels each 48k frame

ADAT
ADAT is probably the most common digital audio connection
used in multichannel interfaces. Since an ADAT cable can
transmit 8 channels only, the A16 MK-II has two pairs of this
interface.
Similar to MADI the number of available channels is only half
or only a quarter in case of higher frequencies:
Frequency ADAT Channels
32kHz, 44,1kHz, 48kHz 2 x 8 channels
88,2kHz, 96kHz 2 x 4 channels
192kHz 2 x 2 channels
If you use ADAT for higher frequencies, the first 8 (or 4)
outputs will be used only. The remaining outputs will repeat
the signal of the first 8 (or 4) outputs. Only the first 8 (or 4)
channels will be used as analog inputs respectively.
As with MADI, set the desired mode using the SAMPLE
RATE button.
