Digital I/Os
The VM200 features two types of digital ins and outs: ADAT IN/OUT
and S/PDIF IN/OUT.
ADAT IN/OUT
ADAT is a digital audio format developed by the Alesis Corporation
that enables eight channels of digital audio to flow through a single
optical cable.
It includes eight digital inputs and eight assignable digital outputs
and can be directly connected to digital multitrack recorders.
You can connect any ADAT-compatible recorder to these connectors,
including an Alesis ADAT, Alesis ADAT-XT, Fostex VR-800, and others.
Using ADAT IN
You can use an optical cable to connect the ADAT IN connector on the
VM200 to the ADAT Out connector on an Alesis ADAT or other
ADAT-compatible device, such as the Fostex VR800.
The signal, which carries eight-channel data from the ADAT IN con-
nector, will be assigned to input channels 9 through 16 on the VM200.
In this example, a Fostex VR800 is connected to the ADAT IN con-
nector on the VM200 to mix from a digital source.
The VR800 serves as the word clock master; the VM200 is the word
clock slave. The VR800 WORD OUT connector transmits the word
clock to the WORD IN connector on the VM200.
Set the Word Clock parameter on the VM200 to “WORD44,” and make
sure that the WORD IN switch on the rear panel is turned on.
If a connected ADAT-compatible device does not have a WORD OUT
connector, set the Word Clock parameter on the VM200 to “ADAT44”
or “ADAT48” depending on the sampling frequency of the source.
For more information on the master word clock setup, refer to “Setting
the Master Word Clock” on page 162.
