With the A16 Ultra, CreamWare delivers the new generation of the
A16 AD/DA converter unit. The A16 Ultra combines state-of-the-art technical
specs with the features which made its predecessor so popular.
Some features include:
- 24-bit / 96 kHz AD/DA converters
- 16 inputs and 16 outputs, balanced analog TRS
- 2 ADAT interfaces
- S/Mux for ADAT conversion at 96 kHz (8-channels)
- 2 Z-Link interfaces (16 channels at 24-bit / 96 kHz)
- Wordclock I/O
- 16 VU meters for exact signal levelling
- Very compact: single rack space 19" unit
In addition, various expansion options for the A16 Ultra are planned: An
add-in board extends S-Mux functionality to 16 channels. With the USB2
option, the converter serves as an I/O solution for any computer system
with a USB2-compliant interface.
Its generous channel count makes the A16
Ultra ideal for use with all I/O cards, digital mixers, and instruments
which have an ADAT interface. When used in combination with a CreamWare DSP
system with Z-Link I/O, the A16 Ultra can simultaneously transfer all 16
channels at 24-bits / 96 kHz.
The A16 Ultra is scheduled for November availability at a retail price of
1250 Euro net.
