The Yamaha AD8HR is an 8-channel remote microphone preamp/AD converter combining unparalleled sound quality with a host of innovative functions.

Description

The AD8HR is an eight-channel AD converter equipped with remote microphone preamps that feature 96kHz, 24-bit linear AD conversion, 128-times oversampling and a dynamic range of 110dB. Its input section features balanced XLR connectors, high-quality mic preamps, +48V phantom power, and support for both mic and linelevel inputs. The output section supports the AES/EBU format and features a high sampling frequency of 88.2/96kHz. You can easily adjust the gain for each channel (in 1dB steps) and set up the high pass filter from the front panel. These settings are stored in the unit’s backup memory, and are retained even after the power is turned off. In addition, a special protocol enables you to remotely control the unit from a connected computer or other device.

Features

  • Microphone preamplifier technology inherited from the PM5000 analog live sound console for unsurpassed sound quality
  • Microphone preamplifier gain can be remotely controlled in steps of 1 dB from compatible Yamaha digital mixing consoles
  • High-pass filter with remotely controllable cutoff frequency on each channel
  • Remotely switchable phantom power supply
  • Up to 255 AD8HRs can be daisy-chained for massive input capacity
  • AES/EBU digital connection to digital mixing console minimizes the need for analog cabling
  • Eight XLR connectors and D-Sub AES/EBU terminals in a compact 1U design
  • Dual output connectors enable 2 x 8-channel digital audio output in the AES/EBU format
  • Remote control can be implemented via RS422 or switchable PC/RS422 nine-pin terminals
