The Prism Sound 8C-FW is a FireWire I/O module that transmits up to eight bi-directional channels digital audio over a FireWire (also known as IEEE-1394) bus connection for the Prism Sound ADA-8RX and ADA-8
Each 8C-FW FireWire card allows for 8 simultaneous input and output channels at up to 96kHz sampling rate, or for 4 simultaneous input/output channels at 176.4 and 192kHz sampling rates. Projects running at sampling rates over 96kHz require two FireWire cards for 8-channel simultaneous input and output. Additionally, 16-channel input or 16-channel output applications are also supported at up to 96kHz with two FireWire cards. For Thunderbolt-equipped computers without FireWire, the 8C-FW can also be used via a third party Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter. Of course FireWire adapters are also available for ExpressCard and various flavors of PCI cards.
Prism Sound 8C-FW FireWire I/O Module – Just the Facts:
- 8 channels of 24-bit/96kHz simultaneous I/O over FireWire
- Can be used with Thunderbolt-enabled computers via cable adapter
8C-FW FireWire for the Prism Sound ADA-8
The FireWire I/O Module enables the ADA-8 to be used as a high quality ‘soundcard’, or I/O interface, for native PC and Macintosh workstation applications. Up to four ADA-8s may be connected on the same FireWire bus allowing up to 32 channels of simultaneous recording and playback. Up to four ADA-8s may be connected on the same FireWire bus allowing up to 32 channels of simultaneous recording and playback.
For Windows PC (Vista and higher, 32 and 64 bit) applications a driver is supplied with the module, which makes the ADA-8(s) appear as Windows Driver Model and ASIO compliant audio device(s). For Macintosh OS X applications, the Operating System will automatically recognize the connected ADA-8s and make it available to applications as an OS X Core Audio device.
For backward- and forward-compatible digital I/O over FireWire or Thunderbolt, the Prism Sound 8C-FW is your key to a high-quality audio interface. For more information configuring a Prism Sound ADA-8XR or ADA-8 system, call or chat online with your PAD Studio Integrator.
