I have had both of these units for quite awhile and was really frustrated with the strange latency I was getting from the ADA8200. turns out, I didn't have two optical cables to make sure the sync was right. Thanks for this, so important.

Thank you for a really clear explanation of `a subject that was baffling me. My old band has a 50th reunion coming up `and I want to record directly to Cubase. I'd already got the UMC820 and the ADA820 will give me eight more channels. Love your presentation style - relaxed yet authoritative. You're a natural teacher.

Now THIS is what I was looking for. Very precise and clear. I got my ada8200 few days ago and the one thing I'm already vaguely complaining about (even before I get started) is the fact that the phantom power generates +48v for each and every mic input in the adat interface. I guess that's what makes it cheap compared to other adat interfaces. I worked my way around plugging to it exclusively condenser mics, just in case and so to be sure I'll never blow up a dynamic capsule by accident. This needs to be said I think

Hi, great video! I want to add something I haven't heard from anyone. Maybe I missed it in this video. I'm using this exact system for Dolby Atmos mixing and was not getting sound out of the ADA outs. You must use 2 lightpipe cables for this! I have the ADA set as the master at 48K. It's literally the cheapest setup. That and Ginger Audio Sphere for routing, bass management and volume control. Saving over $10k.

If anyone here is thinking of getting 4 of these with the RME USB card, I would recommend going for the PCIe version instead (RME HDSPe RayDAT). It should provide lower latency and more stability under heavy load. Additionally get the Word Clock module to sync all the devices.

The power source fry after 5 days of using it. beware of the heat. if you keep it in a room or use it in live, were is over 28 Celsius, the power transformer inside the ADA8200 will fry. it is all over the net, but i found that after my ADA8200 was not working. Now I am trying to repair it . I will ask the electronic service to find a way to make an external power supply so it won't fry again. I am very sorry that I bought this. I must be a design fault. I am not the only one with this issue.

I see you gave a lot of gain to Input 1 on 8200, is there any distortion or ‘over colored ‘ ? I’m asking because I have this confusing. The signal after going to 8200 inputs are quite low, I’m not sure if it is correct to twist knob or not.

lloa I think I should write that your volume is generally lower than other uploads that I listen to. Checking the output volume of the recorded videos would be good. A compressor on the way out would make sure on volume, but check on your end of things.

How would I connect 3 devices. I have now UMC1820 ADAT connected to Focusrite 18i20 as slave. I have a ADA8200 and how do I connect this in the chain to get all of my 24 I/O?? My ADATs are used in the other 2 units. How do I connect these? is my only option through SPDIF or?

WHAT driver were you using for these? 1 of the WAV drivers or 1 of the ASIO drivers? I use Mixcraft 10.5 Pro, & I used it last week to rec a rehearsal, but all the inputs come out as PAIRS, ie 1-8/1 or 2, 1-8/3 or 4 etc. I guessed that for each pair you needed to select a L or R channel to get them separate? It worked but I am not sure IF that is necessary to get separate inputs for each track simultaneously! THAT was with ASIO4ALL driver! Any thoughts? Cheers!

HI there. Have you tried patching a TOSLINK cable from ADAT OUT to ADAT IN ... to make the unit a standalone Mic Pre ? I suppose this will work, but I cannot find any information on it :) Kind regards Nils
@MightyUnlikely5 ай бұрын
YES! Absolutely works. My orig 16-track setup with the ADA8200 was with my (now obsolete) Mackie Firewire Blackbird Onyx. I ran parallel Word Clock cables to both the Mackie and the Behringer which allowed me to have complete flexibility on the OUTPUT sections of each. I ran a TOSLINK splitter from the ADA8200 Output which allowed me to feed BOTH the Mackie (ADAT input, for DAW capture) and the Behringer dig-input. That gave me a "pass-thru" signal for each of the 8 mic inputs of the ADA8200 (which I patched to an external PA-only mixer for room sound reinforcement). Worked great----and "faked" outputs for the Behringer as a satellite of another digital device, when it was actually signal from it's own "front-end". My current setup with a Focusrite i1820 doesn't allow this flexibility for ADAT inputs 🙁 and so I'm forced to get ADA8200 outputs driven "round-trip" from my DAW.
@eddiexx6 ай бұрын
great walkthrough. I need more inputs for stuff like mpc, ipad iphone and other sound sources. I was wondering, could i slave the UMC1820 to my existent babyface Pro? I think it should work, but my question would be, what do you think would make more sense, getting the ADA8200 or the UMC1820? Besides the price maybe there is other funtionability wins in slaving the interface? Cheers
@dancetech6 ай бұрын
you cant sync the UMC1820 to the Babyface, but you CAN make an aggregate device in mac OS of the two devices, but then you can do that with any combinations of audio devices. However it makes no sense getting the UMC cos you have all the extras u need like s/pdif & midi etc on the babyface, but getting the ada8200 would simply add all those extra analog mic pre's and line in/outs to the babyface.. if you need 8 extra mic/line pre's & maybe also the ada8200's extra outs (less required outside of a hardware traditional studio setup) then go for it, but do you need 8 extra mic pre's or line inputs? if you aren't recording multitrack mics or needing to bring larger amounts of external hardware outputs into a DAW onboard mix, then the answer is no i guess.

Hi. I have a question regarding the option for the RME Digiface USB hooked up to up to 4 Behringer ADA8200. In this scenario, is the RME Digiface acting as the audio interface? I don't know much about this product, never heard of it until now. Is this an interface without any Preamps of it's own but designed to support several ADAT expansion units? Cheers
@dancetech5 ай бұрын
"is the RME Digiface acting as the audio interface" ? - yes in a way biut the data dfevices are the physical ins & outs.... admittedly in terms of monitoring connections for things like headphones it's not as convenient as a regular interface with such features onboard, so probably the best thing to do is add-on a cheap tablet mixer connected to your designated master L/R main output pair on one of the devices & this tablet can then connect to your speakers & headphones giving easy volume control to both
