Hi!

I'm still using a blackface ADAT ad additional ADC. My soundcard
offers only two ADAT-Ins.
And the ADAT is connected to the second input.
Since I have a SPDIF-ADAT converter now I want to use the second
soundcard input for this converter, too. Without having to remove the
lightpipes in the dark depths of the rack...

ADAT source - Blackface ADAT - ADAT in of soundcard
(SPDIF-ADAT-CONV.)

When the Blackface is switched to digital Input, will the signal
directly be routed to it's optical output?

The input is 24bit. But the ADAT has only 16bit. So I wonder if there
is any loss of the last 8bits.
This can happend if the signal is not routed directly through but is
converted digitally. The optoGen chip offers a 16bit format.

Which syncsource does the ADAT use then.
I think the digital input, not the 9pin clock source, right?
