Question: 4 ADAT vs 1 ADAT #1
Description
Hi!
As I understand the expansion pin-layout is designed to allow bidirectional audio of 8 channels.
Thus, if the ADAT expansion board has 4 i/o ADAT connections, it would take up all four slots of any (the INFINITAS) board, no?
Is that a sensible decision?
As in: by occupying all expansion slots no other expansion card could be added, like 8 AD/DA cards or whatever. I mean, adding 2 ADAT IOs and 2x 8 AD/DAs might be a very plausible user setup; or 2 ADAT IOs and 16 channel AVB (if such a thing will ever exist); or 1 ADAT, 1 AD/DA + AVB....
Didn't have a look at all the basic board designs, but if any of these have only one slot for expansion cards, by requiring more than one slow the ADAT card would have a somewhat limited use.
ps. AVB would really be great... ;)
