I'm still using an Opcode 64xtc and a 128X. I want to
sell these and buy a Unitor8 MkII and an AMT8
but I must be able to do sample accurate
phase-locked audio transfers from ADAT to LAMP
(or another audio program and then open the files in LAMP).
If the Unitor8 MkII will NOT support sample accurate
phase-locked audio transfers from ADAT do you have any
suggestions other then running two MIDI interface rigs?>>
The Opcode box is neat and all (and too bad about Opcode ....) BUT it does
not
do sample accurate anything. Neither does Motu MTP Av or DTP either. All
these
boxes do is convert the ADAT's location into MTC. MTC is quarter frame
accurate
which is many, many samples.
Sample accuracy is obtained when an audio card has an ADAT sync jack and the
chosen software fully implements sample accurate transfers. There are 2 ways
to
do this today: ADAT EDIT with ADAT connect software and MOTU 2408 using DP
or
Audiodesk. Sonorus has now announced EASI implementation for their Backplate
however there was some discussion earlier this week on the list saying that
Logic isn't quite there yet. Once this is resolved there will be a total of
three ways to do sample accurate transfers....that's it for now. I am sure
that
more cards and software will follow however sample accuracy is too
frequently
misused to describe an ADAT to HD transfer that worked.
