24/96 AD-DA Converter 2053

• Please consider referring the installation of the unit

operating the converter the safety information in the
corresponding operation instruction.

• Please carry out the self-installation only as descri-

bed from page 5. In case of queries please contact an
expert.

The SPL converter module 2053 combines separately
useable A/D and D/A converters, with a wordwidth up
to 24 Bits, and a Sample-rate of up to 96 kHz.

The D/A converter processes up to 24 Bits automati-

cally, as well as sample-rates from 32Bit to 96 kHz and
is equipped with high-quality, balanced XLR outputs
(+ 12 dBu).

The A/D converter supports 16 and 24Bit formats

and works. The reduction from 24Bit to 16Bit is
processed with the Dithering-method: the "missing"
lower 8Bit is not cut off, but rather "included" in the 16
Bit format. This ensures that quietest passages are
preserved.

Internal Synchronization:

The converter module

allows to choose 5 different clock sources via the AD
MODE switch. The internal sample rates (96 kHz/48 kHz
and 88.2 kHz/44.1 kHz) are Quartz-generated.
