Multichannel Playback - RME Audio M-16 DA User Manual

20.2 Multichannel Playback

M-16 DA and M-32 DA can be combined freely. Therefore 16, 32, 48, 64 (or multiple thereof)
different audio signals can be played back by the computer.
When using the HDSPe RayDAT the converters are connected via ADAT optical with the card.
It is recommended to operate the card in clock mode Master, with all converters synchronizing
to the ADAT signal (Slave). This setup will allow for up to 32 channels with 2 M-16 DA. The
playback is automatically sample-synchronous between the units, as the RayDAT plays all sig-
nals on all 4 ports perfectly synchronized. An additional word clock connection between Ray-
DAT and converters is not required.
