Product Description
The LavryBlack AD11 is a stereo Analog to digital converter that accepts either line level analog inputs or microphone inputs and outputs stereo digital audio via XLR, RCA, and USB. The Line input and Microphone input stages are completely separate and relay bypassed; so there is no compromise to the performance in either mode.

For general information see analog to digital converter.
Features
- Recording at 44.1, 48, 88.2 or 96 kHz with 24 bit word length
- Super-stable internal clock
- External clocking via word clock or AES sync
- BNC Word Clock output for synchronizing other gear to the AD11
- Digital output format selectable between AES/EBU and IEC (SPDIF)
- Peak hold selectable on large wide range LED meters
- Soft Saturation for peak level control without time constants (allows signal to be compressed or limited without undesirable interaction due to different attack and release times)
- Combo input connectors accept +4 XLR pro level, pro microphone level or -10 1/4" instrument level inputs
- Optional Rack Mount Kit (can be used to mount any combination of two LavryBlack units)
Applications
- Tracking
- Mixing
- Overdubs
- Mastering
- Broadcast
- Live/Location Sound
- Post Production
- Vinyl Transcription
Connections
1.) Line inputs The AD11 has "Combo connectors" that can accept XLR or 1/4" T.R.S. or T.S. phone plugs for balanced or unbalanced sources. The XLR inputs can also accept low impedance microphone inputs.
The 1/4" input is wired in a standard manner so the tip is the "+" signal conductor for either T.R.S. or T.S. connections. The sleeve is the "-" signal conductor for T.R.S. connections and would be grounded by the sleeve in T.S. connections.
The XLR input is Pin 2 "+" and Pin 3 "-" for normal signal polarity. Thus, for unbalanced Line level XLR connections, the "hot" signal conductor would be connected to Pin 2 and the signal return would be connected to Pin 3. In Microphone mode, the AD11 accepts ONLY low impedance balanced microphone inputs.
2.) Digital outputs The digital outputs consist of (1) male XLR,(1) RCA socket, and (1) USB connector.
The output format for both the XLR and RCA outputs is selected by front panel setting for "AES" or "SPDIF" (which is IEC 60958 type II).
The USB output utilizes the native OS drivers for both windows and Apple operating systems.
