MaXiO XD EX8000
3.2.3 [MODE 2] S/PDIF to analog / analog to S/PDIF
9
[MODE 2] allows you to use EX8000 as 8 channel AD converter with 4 S/PDIF outputs and
simultaneously as 8 channel DA converter with 4 S/PDIF inputs. This is similar to [MODE 1]
although the digital I/O is an S/PDIF consumer signal in [MODE 2] while in [MODE 1] it is a
professional AES/EBU signal.
3.2.4 [MODE 3] analog to ADAT and AES/EBU
[MODE 3] equals [MODE 1] with the difference that the ADAT optical output will send out an 8
channel signal from the AD converters in addition. This allows you to use EX8000 as 8-channel
ADC with microphone preamps and inserts for devices with optical ADAT input.
