The 8 In/8 Out ULTRAGAIN ADA8000
ADAT Audio Interface is one of
our all-time, best-selling products.
The incredible ADA8000 features
audiophile-grade 24-bit A/D - D/A

integrity, optical ADAT in/out interface
for ultimate compatibility, and our
“Invisible” Mic Preamps – making it
the natural choice of professional
musicians and audio engineers alike.
Your recording tracks will sound just as amazing as you imagined them –
when you lay them down with the ADA8000!
ADAT-Ready
The ADA8000 is sublimely easy to operate,
ts neatly into a single rack space and,
thanks to the 8 IMP “Invisible” mic preamps
with switchable +48 V Phantom Power and
audiophile-grade 24-bit A/D - D/A converters,
you get incredibly detailed, pristine
performance. Signal conversion takes place at
your choice of 44.1 or 48 kHz with full 24-bit
resolution. The ADAT Inputs and Outputs can
be operated independently, as long as you use
an identical wordclock signal. And ADA8000’s
operating frequency range is an ultra-wide
10 Hz to 24 kHz – at a very respectable, 48 kHz
sampling rate. Put simply, the ULTRAGAIN
ADA8000 is the professional’s edge.
