Digi 002 Rack in stand alone
Hello
Anyone knows if the Digi 002 Rack can be used in stand alone ? I mean , is that possible to use it just as an A/D converter ( analog to adat ) without a computer ? Thanks Madreza |
Re: Digi 002 Rack in stand alone
No. I spoke to someone at Digidesign about that a year or two ago, and he seemed to see the wisdom of my point, but as far as I know, this has not been implemented.
Maybe if you (and many others) call and complain, they will implement it (hopefully as a retroactive fix). |

Thanks Steve
as I saw this was possible for the digi 002, I wondered if this could work for the Rack version ! gotta find another solution |
Re: Digi 002 Rack in stand alone
Yes, actually you can use the 002 Rack over ADAT only. You can have it send its analog ins 1-8 out real time over ADAT Out. Then connect the ADAT out to the ADAT in of another interface for 8 extra inputs! I just bought an 002 rack for $200 to do this purely. For $200 it's decent 24-bit, 44khz inputs. If you don't need more than 44khz this is fine.

The old 002 is not that good a converter anyway so I would sell it and look into something that suits your needs now. If you describe your needs, you'll get some good advice:o

The 002 console has a stand alone mode where this is possible. The 002 rack does not. So how exactly are you doing this? How exactly do you tell a 002 to send its analog outputs out the ADAT without it running as a Pro Tools interface. There are lots of other ADAT preamps out there that are options for doing what the original poster wanted. Darryl |

Dude it just works, exactly like I just said. Hook it up, and boom it works. If you don't believe me try it yourself. Just make sure no firewire or other digital connections are going into the 002.

Re: Digi 002 Rack in stand alone
Looking forward to trying this tonight. What gets me is folk who try and spend your money stating you should buy or try something else or better. If the budget is what it is, and it works for you...then you buy THAT. I have excellent A-D ADAT interface pieces from RME, Steinberg/Yamaha and more. I also have a Digi002 and a Tascam FW1804 on the way. and I'm sure they will work fine. Digi002 standalone is worth a try either way...FW'ed or not. It was at the time it costs $1100!! LOL.
