Conceived and designed by
BEHRINGER Germany

Need to convert a digital multi-track
signal to analog, or vice versa? The new
BEHRINGER ULTRAGAIN DIGITAL ADA8200
is sublimely easy to operate, ts neatly
into a single rack space, and thanks to
its MIDAS-designed Mic Preamps and
integrated A/D and D/A converters you’ll
get optimal signal conversion—without
the slightest hint of distortion or signal
deterioration! The ULTRAGAIN ADA8200 is
the professional’s edge.

What's New?

The ADA8200 builds on the proud
legacy of our ADA8000, which is one
of our all-time, best-selling products.
Now, you’re probably thinking, “If they
sell so many ADA8000s, then why are
they changing them?” The short answer
– we improved it, by upgrading to
reference-class Cirrus Logic converters
and MIDAS-designed Mic Preamps,

making the ADA8200 the natural choice
for musicians and audio engineers alike.

The Technical Stu

Signal conversion in the ADA8200
takes place at either 44.1 or 48 kHz with
24-bit resolution. The ADAT inputs and
outputs can be operated independently,
as long as there is an identical wordclock
signal. Frequency range is an ultra-wide
10 Hz - 24 kHz at a 48 kHz sampling rate.

The Ins and Outs

Connections are provided for balanced
XLR and ¼" TRS, as well as unbalanced
¼" TS inputs. XLR line out connectors
located on the rear panel provide either
balanced or unbalanced connectivity.
Digital I/O is handled via ADAT format
TOSLINK optical sockets, which support
up to 8 channels of data.
