Is it available to Pulsar?

Only with external clock.

and a sync plate

Uhm, it's pretty much an option with my A16U or Pulsar software-menu.. are you guys on crack?

Yes I have A16 ultra but it doesn't show up in project.Says 96k.
Also I can't use Z-link when it's slaved to 88.2k.Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Whoa. Never noticed that before . Sorry for being so bold.'

Does it sounds weird when in 88.2k?

it sounds like it sounds - but it's a common mistake that people assume there would be 'less rounding errors' because it's a multiply of 44.1 (which 96 isn't)
Sample rate conversion doesn't work like this, if done properly, it's a pretty complex filtering process and completely independant from the sample rate.
Yet there ARE (or at least have been) in fact some supersmart a*ses, who doubled the sample rate and fed it averaged values of the (say) 44.1k sample set (Craig Anderton found that during some SOS reviews).
Needless to mention that this procedure decreases quality, but the side effects could be similiar to an exiter, so it evntually might be perceived as an improvement - let alone the psychological effect of the numbers...

cheers, Tom

But if I would set my A16U as the master, I would clock the Pulsar with 88.2K if set.
It's an external clock afterall.

But can you get Z-link to work if it isn't the master and A16U is?

Your master samplerate should really be equivalent to the device in your chain with the lowest samplerate. In otherwords, if you have a Noah, AD/DA conveter, digital mixer or anything else in your digital tree which doesn't support 88.2 or 96kHz, it would be advisable not to bother. You'll end up with nothing but trouble if you run different devices at different clock rates unless you have a good master clock with switchable rates per output.

& no I'm not on crack this week voidar ...
