5. APPLICATION GUIDE
Digital equipment is only as good as the converters they employ! I’m sure you have heard that
before, but never a truer word has been spoken. Poor quality converters can be found in many
digital devices even today and simply will not do justice to your recordings. Poor imaging,
excessive distortion, and low fidelity are just some of the outcomes you can expect when using
sub-standard converters.
One main area of concern where poor quality converters are often found is that of computer
sound cards and audio interfaces. Poor sonic quality is not uncommon, especially in many of the
mass-produced computer sound cards. It’s comes as no surprise that more and more recording
professionals and hobbyists alike prefer to use high-quality external converters to their AD/DA
concerns.
The exceptional A/D and D/A converters built into the ADDA 192-S are ideal for use in a
computer based recording situation. In combination with your computer or audio interfaces
digital I/O connectors the ADDA 192-S provides outstanding audio conversion to and from the
