Features

Converts between ADAT Optical Digital Interface and S/PDIF
digital interface signals, in either direction.

In Mix Mode, SAM is an 8-input (ADAT Optical), 2-output
(S/PDIF) digital mixer with independent gain and pan controls
per each ADAT input channel.

In direct ADAT-to-S/PDIF modes, SAM is a transparent format
converter, routing selectable 2-track pairs from the SAM’s ADAT
input to the S/PDIF output. 

In S/PDIF-to-ADAT modes, SAM is a transparent format convert-
er that routes S/PDIF left to ADAT channels 1, 3, 5 and 7; and
routes S/PDIF right to ADAT channels 2, 4, 6 and 8.

”Lossless” 24-bit conversion in all direct modes.

24-bit Mix Mode with 56-bit internal processing.

Signal level and clipping indicators for left and right output channels.

Supports all sample rates from 39 kHz to 51 kHz.

Internal high-performance DSP.

Rugged, all-steel construction.

Compact desktop size: 7” x 4.5” x 1”.
