Routing the ADAT from the hammerfall to your Pulsar card should work great, for 8 channels of audio. Just get your master/slave relationship set right.

think so too, subhuman, but do I have to use to ADAT-Modules or the SPdif Modules of the Pulsar 3 Software (the board is a Pulsar I)
?

thanks

The hammerfall and the Pulsar both have ADAT connections, so I would say use the .... ADAT modules.

I have a similar question whose answer I've not found yet after scouring the forums, but this is the closest topic, so here it goes:

I was talking to Paul Tanti yesterday, and I asked him about how one could get a digital input signal at the same time as a digital output. (I want to have the optical Toslink output from my Kurzweil K2500 go into the Pulsar II ADAT optical, and then have the coax SPDIF out take the overall signal path to my receiver's digital in).

Now Paul tells me to get the sync plate, but I'm not sure why I should, and I couldn't get beyond a busi signal when I realized I should know more about this. The website is rather flaky, and a google search has only offered things to buy, but no explaination of how the sync plate will help, and what all it does. Any known informational links (or a flat out answer to my question) would be much appreciated.

Thanks a bundle

hey Samuel!!

welcome here, been waiting for you looong time -i'm glad you found z :smile: :smile: :smile:

I used to slave PulsarII to another soundcard in another comp via spdif, while S5000 was slave on Pulsar. Worked fine. But maybe CW don't garantee that it works, but it ran pretty cool. I mean, no sync problems when all devices were set-up.

Maybe try first, get a syncplate when you have sync problems or when you're going to sync multiple sequencers.

See you around,

I did the same with a Philips DCC 730 digital cassette recorder mainly because of it's decent mic pre and 18 bit converters. The Philips was a real bargain at the shop though they must have been expensive in former days :smile:.

to Subhman:
The precision of the clock effects everything coming out of your system
There was no noticable difference at Pulsar generated sounds (under headphones). Do you have a critical example set up I could check out to verify this ?
Or does this only affect systems with multiple digital clients ?
