I think it surfaces again as another thread, maybe related to the development board or cpu chip. When I was looking at it, it seemed that a dac/adc had about the same interface as s/pdif, aes3. ADAT chips are harder to find. aes10 (I think thats the right one) or MADI, is data over an ethernet IF and as such is sent as aes3 channels in series (over simplified a lot) That is to say mostly software once the ethernet IF is chosen. However, it would mean rewriting the ethernet driver for the interface. There seems to a newer MADI that no longer uses optical, but cat5. It may be that a standard ethernet card would work for that with the right driver. -- Len Ovens www.ovenwerks.net
