Im would like to experiment using microphone arrays (

am just wondering if it is possible for me to use 3 units of Behringer
ADA8000 connected via ADAT to HDSP 9652. My tools run only with ALSA
supported devices and I checked through ALSA website, the HDSP 9652 seemed
to be OK. Im just wondering if the set-up I mentioned is possible ? Will
there be any issue at all if i use the ADA8000 as far as ALSA is concerned
? Thank you very much, I really would appreciate any suggestions or
comments. Thank you
Microphone arrays usually mean you need well-defined or at
least repeatable and stable gain settings. This is quite
problematic with the ADA8000.
Also if you build them into a portable rack case make
sure you leave plently of open space between them. Some
of my collegues here put four ADA8000 on top of each
other in 6U rack - just 1U space at the top and bottom.
Three of them were fried. You only know when the damage
is done.
