Cranborne Audio 500ADAT: A Multifaceted ADAT Expander and Summing Mixer

A Versatile Unit for the Modern Studio

The Cranborne Audio 500ADAT is a multifunctional device that serves as an ADAT expander, an 8-slot 500 series rack, and an 8-into-2 summing mixer. This unit is meticulously designed to extend the input and output capabilities of any ADAT-equipped audio interface. By doing so, it facilitates a seamless transition between digital and analogue production workflows, making it an invaluable asset for studios of all sizes.

Exceptional A/D-D/A Conversion

The 500ADAT is equipped with high-quality A/D-D/A converters that offer a dynamic range of 121dB A-weighted. This ensures that your 500 series modules are accurately represented in your digital recordings. The frequency response of the unit extends from 2.2Hz to over 80kHz, capturing every nuance of the audio signal and providing a transparent listening experience.

Advanced Analogue Summing

The unit's 8-into-2 summing mixer provides an impressive +26.5dBu of headroom. This feature allows for the blending of multiple audio sources, adding a distinct analogue character to the final mix. The summing mixer is ideal for those looking to achieve a fuller, richer sound without resorting to digital summing algorithms.

Real-Time Artist Mixing Capabilities

The 500ADAT includes a zero-latency analogue artist mixer, which is a crucial feature for real-time monitoring. It comes with individual level and pan controls for each channel, as well as aux input blend controls. Additionally, the unit offers two high-power headphone outputs, each with independent blend and level settings, providing artists with a more personalised monitoring experience.

Comprehensive Connectivity for Seamless Integration

The 500ADAT is well-equipped in terms of connectivity, featuring 8 XLR Analog Inputs and 8 XLR Analog Outputs. It also includes AES/EBU and RJ45 Control connections. This extensive range of inputs and outputs ensures that the unit can be easily integrated into any studio setup, whether it's a small project studio or a larger commercial facility.

Designed and Tested in the UK

Each 500ADAT unit undergoes rigorous testing by a dedicated team of engineers in the UK. This meticulous quality assurance process ensures that the unit will deliver consistent performance and reliability, making it a long-term investment for your studio.
