I was actually looking for a 8 channel preamp, when I
found this
Behringer ADA8000 device that has a 8 channel A/D and D/A codec AND an 8
channel preamp. The device has a digital DAT out for the A/D codec.
http://www.behringer.com/ADA8000/
Does anyone use this device on this list? Is it supported by linux and
what hardware is needed on the PC side to hook the digital connection to
Ardour?
ADA8000 is only a preamp + AD/DA (ADAT). You don't connect it
directly on your computer.
What I've heard about it:
- préamps are Behringer, it means: good for the price but...
- AD/DA are good, the same as Alesis AI-3 for the same cost, but
Ai-3 as not preamp.
A good deal is to buy it for the AD/DA and have some preamp.
Line outs are XLR, I don't understand why.
Alesis has jacks if I remember. If you don't need 8 preamp, it is
maybe cheaper to buy Ai-3 versus ADA and 8 adapter XLR-jack :-)
