A new breed of audio converter has arrived: Prism Sound’s Dream ADA-128.
The Dream ADA-128 redefines flexibility, capacity, and performance standards in professional audio conversion. In creating it, Prism Sound ripped up the rule book and started again, using all its 30+ years of ADC and DAC development experience. Building on the legacy of the Prism Sound Dream ADA-8XR, the resulting Dream ADA-128 architecture is so capable that it is set to meet the needs of the most demanding facilities for years to come.
The Dream ADA-128 is a 2U chassis that can accommodate up to 20 plug-in modules. These presently include eight-channel analogue input and output modules and an eight-channel AES3 module. Four of the slots can accommodate a range of 64-channel host modules which include Pro Tools HDX and Dante host modules (and more to come). Full routing flexibility allows analogue to/from AES3 routing without the use of host slots, and host-to-host bridging.
The Dream ADA-128 contains four independent clock generators, each of which can run at different sample rates and with different sync sources. The ADA-128’s host and I/O modules can be dynamically assigned to these clock domains, allowing multiple workflows (such as separate project studios or ingest stations) to simultaneously share the resources of a single ADA-128’s resources.
Every I/O module, as well as the unit’s built-in routing module, have dedicated DSP capability, which will allow a wide range of future functionality to be added by a simple software download.
The Dream ADA-128 incorporates Prism Sound’s unique Verifile technology, wherein every ADC in the system can add imperceptible metadata to its dither signal, allowing downstream processes to check that every sample in a stream is exactly as it left the ADC. This reduces the need for expensive and unreliable listening tests of every minute of every digital recording or transmission.
These and many other unique capabilities make the Dream ADA-128 the only box you will ever need, no matter what your application.
The four independently synchronized clock domains allow this revolutionary product to run at four different sample rates, allowing a single unit to deliver independent configurations for up to four recording and playback systems.
The modular design meets the needs of the most demanding applications, as well as the needs of the growing studio. As your requirements grow, the ADA-128 can grow with you.
The ADA-128 delivers flexible interconnectivity both internally and externally, allowing point-to-point routing throughout its modular configuration.
The ADA-128 is set to become the centerpiece for studios worldwide. It allows you to meet the full Dolby Atmos channel count of 128 channels in a single 2U unit, making it the most compact yet powerful solution available.
The Dream ADA-128 control software runs on an on-board CPU module, featuring a quad-core ARM processor. This intuitive software allows you to manage every element of the unit efficiently.
Prism Sound is collaborating with Ginger Audio to integrate GroundControl Sphere into the Dream ADA-128, offering comprehensive speaker management and high-quality audio processing.
The ADA-128 can be controlled via a front-panel touch screen or over IP using a browser-based control panel optimized for computers, phones, and tablets.
