    The Drawmer DC2496 is an extremely sophisticated, high resolution analogue to digital converter designed for use in demanding recording and broadcast applications. Both analogue (balanced XLR) and digital (AES/EBU, S/PDIF, ADAT 8 Channel light pipe and TDIF 8 Channel) I/O is provided as standard. The audio converters are 24bit and the digital output can be either 16, 18, 20, 22 or 24bit at sample rates of up to 96kHz. Noise shaped dithering is included and Word Clock input and output is available.

    FEATURES
    96k 24bit A/D with130dB dynamic range and very low THD.
    Simultaneously record96k/48k 24bit stereo input to 48K (three) or 96K (six) tracks to ADATor TDIF 8 track digital tape recorder and stereo 48k 16bit backup (to tracks 7/8) and record an independant backup copy at 48/44.1 20/16bits to DAT (using internal Sample Rate Converter).
    Sample Rate Converterwith bit reduction and dither to reduce 96/88.2K 24bit recordings to48/44.1K 16/20bit for CD masters.
    Built in 96/48K highquality D/A to monitor digital signals or record to analog tape.
    Dual time constantStereo Limiter with variable time constants can apply up to 18dB stereo gain to any input signal.
    100dB range 64 elementstereo signal meter with peak hold. Metering in both dBfs (digital) and dBu (analogue) for ease of use.
    Selection of Noise shaped dither and bit rounding to reduce 96/48/44.1K recordings to 22,20, 18 or 16 bits.
    Digitally copy 8 track stereo or Hi-Res ADAT/TDIF recordings to or from TDIF/ADAT.
    Auto identify Stereo or Hi-Res recordings upon ADAT or TDIF replay.
    Inputs from A/D ADAT optical, TDIF, AES, SPDIF, Outputs to D/A ADAT optical, TDIF, AES,SPDIF.
    Separate Digital Word Sync from D/A TDIF, ADAT, AES, SPDIF or BNC.
    Rear panel show which sockets are active for easy hookup using Green (for input signal) and Yellow (for word clock inputs) LEDs.
    Built in 100Hz, 1kHz,10kHz and dual sine wave generator (100Hz Left Ch, 1K Right Ch) sine tone at -40dB, -20dB and variable -24db to -6dB output level to aid connection difficulties and troubleshooting.
    Dual PLL for low jitter.
