8.2 Synchronization

Independent multi-stage, auto-ranging PLL sync circuits for each Path:
Ultra-high-precision mode within 0.15% of standard rates:
High-precision mode within 6.00% of standard rates;
Non-standard rates from 28-52kHz and 78-105kHz dependent on firmware;
Internal references at 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96kHz ± 25ppm
Sync sources include internal crystal, wordclock, AES11, video, or any digital input.
Paths can sample at a different rate from their sync source if required.
Wordclock and AES11 sync outputs can be driven by either Path.
Superclock output mode available to slave Digidesign 888|24 I/O units.
