"The AD10 marks the first time that a Lavry Engineering unit has offered this type of option," explains Dan Lavry, President of Lavry Engineering. "With AD10, very high accuracy and transparency remain the starting point. However, the engineer can also alter the original signal if they choose."
In addition to a myriad of functions, the LavryBlack AD10 is accessible via user-friendly interface controlled by a single toggle switch. This switch utilizes multiple displays for heightened efficiency within the compact ½ RU enclosure. Other highlights of the LavryBlack AD10 include:
" Internal Crystal 44.1, 48, 88.2, & 96 kHz sampling rates
" Ultra-stable internal and external clocking
" Greater than 117dB Dynamic Range (unweighted), 120dB (weighted)
" Less than .0009% THD+N (20HZ-20kHz)
" External Word Clock or AES sync for 32-100kHz operation
" 24 bit AES/SPDIF and optical outputs
" XLR professional level analog inputs (+4dBu)
" ¼" instrument line level analog inputs (-10dBV)
" Accepts balanced or unbalanced analog signals
" 14 segment digital meters w/Peak Hold
" Meter display gain setting in 1dB steps

October 5,2007 - THE LAVRYBLACK AD10 AND LAVRYBLACK DA10:
CONVERSION CONVERGENCE
An Unbeatable Pair for Complete Stereo AD and DA Conversion Applications
AES 2007 BOOTH #249: The unparalleled transparency of Lavry Engineering's LavryBlack line has a new addition: The LavryBlack AD10 stereo A/D converter. Paired with the critically praised LavryBlack DA10 stereo D/A converter, the units form a conversion powerhouse that brings highest-quality sound, extreme flexibility and ease of use to discerning recording professionals.
Pristine digital audio begins with the LavryBlack AD10 and the introduction of Lavry Engineering's unique Digital Alias-Free Emulation™ modes. With this exclusive system, in addition to Clear mode users can select the characteristic of Tube, Transformer or both (Complex). In addition to a myriad of functions, the LavryBlack AD10 is accessible via user-friendly interface controlled by a single toggle switch. This switch utilizes multiple displays for heightened efficiency within the compact ½ RU enclosure. Other highlights of the LavryBlack AD10 include:
* Internal Crystal 44.1, 48, 88.2, & 96 kHz sampling rates * Ultra-stable internal and external clocking * Greater than 117dB Dynamic Range (unweighted), 120dB (weighted)
* Less than .0009% THD+N (20HZ-20kHz) * External Word Clock or AES sync for 32-100kHz operation * 24 bit AES/SPDIF and optical outputs * XLR professional level analog inputs (+4dBu) * ¼" instrument line level analog inputs (-10dBV) * Accepts balanced or unbalanced analog signals * 14 segment digital meters w/Peak Hold * Meter display gain setting in 1dB steps
Immediately upon its introduction in 2005, the LavryBlack DA10 set new standards in performance and quality at a cost-effective price point. A half-rack unit that can receive AES or SPDIF digital audio on XLR, RCA and optical link, the DA10 also provides three Clock modes. The "potentiometer free" discrete analog attenuator provides up to 56dB very high precision volume control in 1 dB steps. A discrete headphone driver accommodates even the lowest impedance headphones, and the unit includes a polarity switch, plus a Stereo-Mono switch useful for mastering applications.
"The LavryBlack DA10 made an impact from the moment it was available," says Dan Lavry, President of Lavry Engineering. "With the birth of its brother the AD10, find out why two Lavry's in the studio are better than one."
