Presonus Digimax and 192 digital IO

[yotam agam]

Just about to get 2 Presonus DigiMax96 and 192 digital IO which has to TDIF nput in the back.
Question:

Is the DM008 - AES/EBU Breakout Cable For Digidesign 192 I/O will carry ALL 8 Channels 96K into ProTools?

[mixer]

no 96k is only supported by spdif or aes outs of the digimax. only two channels..the optical output will do 8 channels at 48k.

The easiest way is to use the AES breakout on the Digimax, they sell one that is a 25pin d-sub for PT.
Then just use your AES I/O on the Digital 192. That breakout also includes a d-sub for your 8 digital outs.

Or you could stick with ADAT format and enable real-time sample rate conversion in the HW setup for 96kHz compatibility.

Yea, the SRC works and sounds great. Having said that, the Presonus
Digital AES Cable allows 8 wide w/out SRC at 88.2
and 96k with any of the 192 I/Os. I think there is also a benefit
to clocking the Digimax to your I/O or master clock.
