Yamaha MY16AT 16-Channel ADAT Card

No longer available at zZounds
Handle up to 16 channels of 44.1/48-kHz audio or up to 8 channels of 96-kHz audio with this ADAT card.

The MY16AT Mini-YGDAI Digital I/O card can be used with Yamaha's DM2000, 02R96, DM1000, 01V96VCM, 01V96 and future digital consoles to provide up to 16 channels of simultaneous ADAT-format (optical) I/O via a single expansion slot. All 16 channels can be used independently at sample rates up to 48-kHz, or the MY16AT card can be used for 'double channel' connection to 96-kHz recorders providing 8 channels of I/O at 88.2 or 96-kHz.

Connection with 96-kHz Recorders

Although the DM2000, DM1000 and 02R96 handle 96-kHz audio as standard, most of the currently available digital recorders can handle 96- kHz audio only in double channel mode (using 2 tracks to make one). In this configuration the DM2000, DM1000 and 02R96 use one channel for one (96-kHz) track, but twice the number of I/O connections must be used. The recently introduced MY16-AT/TD/AE cards can handle 16 channels of 44.1/48-kHz audio or up to 8 channels of 96-kHz audio in double channel mode.
