Yes this one should do the job. It can also do sample rate conversion. Looked up the sample delay numbers I got from the manufacturer:
- Delays:
AES receiver: 1 sample
AES transmitter: 1 sample
ADAT receiver: 3 samples
ADAT transmitter: 5 samples
SRC: 35 samples
So the path AES-In to ADAT-Out would have about 41 samples delay with SRC and about 6 samples delay without SRC.
So with sample rate conversion (if needed) it's still faster than Audinate's Dante-AES dongle, which starts at 1ms latency. Without sample rate conversion, the conversion latency is the microseconds range e.g. unnoticeable. (6 samples at 48khz = 125 microseconds , at 96khz only 62,5 microseconds)
