Korg 1212 I/O

PCI Card
Adat optical in and out (16 bit)
S/PDIF in and out (16 or 20 bit)
Analog in and out (16 bit)
Word Clock in and out
Adat sync in
Bundled with Macromedia's Deck II multitrack recording software
(Standard API is available to all developers of digital audio software,
making it easy for all digital audio programs to support the 1212 I/O)
Also includes a driver for the Apple Sound Manager, allowing use
with all Sound Manager-compatible digital audio programs

* The 1212 I/O features 12 independent record and playback channels -
 8 Adat, 2 S/PDIF, and 2 Analog. All channels may be used simultaneously.

*  Any input channel can be routed to any output channel.

 This means, for instance, that you can bring in signals from the Adat
 input, send them out S/PDIF for processing, bring them back in via
 S/PDIF, and then send them back to the Adat.

* The 1212 I/O's Adat sync in port allows the 1212 I/O to synchronize
 playback with an Adat system, acting essentially as another Adat. Time
 code can be derived from this input, allowing programs within the
 computer (such as Deck II) to sync to an Adat system without need for a
 BRC. The 1212 I/O will also work well in combination with the BRC.

* The Korg DRS series product line also includes two rack-mount
 Adat-to-analog interfaces. The 880 D/A is an 8-channel D/A, converting
 the Adat input to 8 analog outputs; the 880 A/D is an 8-channel A/D,
 converting 8 analog inputs to Adat output.

 By connecting these interfaces to the 1212 I/O's Adat input and output,
 you can add 8 additional analog inputs and/or outputs, for a total
 of 10 analog inputs and 10 analog outputs. (By using additional analog
 converters for the S/PDIF channels, one could bring all 12 channels out
 to analog, if desired.)

 These interfaces do not add additional channels; they merely mirror the
 Adat channels to analog inputs and outputs. The upper limit on i/o
 remains constant: 12 channels in, 12 channels out.

 Each interface includes both Adat input and output, allowing them to
 be used within the Adat optical loop. This means that you don't need to
 re-patch to switch between analog and Adat optical i/o; the same 8
 channels are mirrored to both analog and Adat formats.
