OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR GAMBIT ADC2 24Bit / 192kHz A/D CONVERTER INTRODUCTION
Daniel Weiss Engineering Ltd., Florastr. 42, CH-8610 Uster Page 2
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing the Weiss Gambit Series ADC2 A/D Converter !
The ADC2 is a two channel A/D converter designed for
most demanding audio applications. It uses state of
the art A/D chips in Weiss Engineering’s proven
“correlation technique” configuration, which lowers
converter imperfections and improves the SNR ratio.
For best noise rejection, the analogue input signal is
kept balanced from the input connectors up to the
converter chips. A high quality microphone preamp is
available as a standard feature.
Additionally, there is a built-in digital two-segment
compressor / limiter for optimal levelling, employing
adaptive release timing, look-ahead circuitry and
sidechain-oversampling for mastering-quality
dynamics processing.
Large bar graphs, a well thought-out push button
array and uncluttered rotary knobs optimize handling
ergonomics.
Summary of ADC2 features:
Inputs
• Two balanced LINE and two MIC inputs on
separate XLR connectors.
• MIC input with switchable phantom power.
• Input sensitivity is settable in each channel
independently (or ganged) with two rotary
encoders.
• Line Input sensitivity: -16dBu to +26 dBu.
• Mic Input sensitivity: -54dBu to +6dBu.
• Separate AES/EBU input on XLR for
synchronization and/or audio input to the DSP,
which allows for use of the ADC2 for redithering
and limiting of digital signals.
Synchronization
• Internal sync selectable 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz,
96kHz, 176.4kHz, 192kHz.
• External sync from Wordsync Input (BNC) or from
AES/EBU input.
• Wordsync output on a BNC connector.
Metering
• One input / output level bargraph per channel
with short peak hold
• One gain reduction bargraph per channel.
• Two over LEDs
• Two numerical displays for peak hold and level
settings.
•
Reference for level setting can be altered
