sonifex rb adda2
  • It supports higher sample frequency rates up to and including 176.4kHz and 192kHz.
  • It has additional independent AES/EBU and Word Clock synchronising inputs so that the A/D and D/A sections can operate independently, with the digital outputs synchronised to an external master reference clock.
  • It has TOSlink optical digital audio input and output.
  • It has front panel push-button switches for all the main settings. The buttons are arranged in sets, where pressing the button advances the current selection and LED indicator.
  • A serial RS232 port is included so that the RB-ADDA2 settings can be controlled remotely. The front panel LED indicators to alter automatically when using RS232 commands.
