Search for an ADAT out interface to run parallel with ADAT outs on an 1824c and get sent to an interface with 2 ADAT ins.

Like the title says, what would you use. I could go for something with lots of inputs. I just looked pretty deeply at the old Presonus Mic preamp mixer called the Digimax FS. Being as it's not an interface I was not sure what to think about it. Anyone got any other suggestions? Are there specifically any Presonus interfaces that would work well here? I don't know what it would be like running 2 1824c in parallel like that.

I have maxed out my 16 ins on an 1824C and the input interface that is why I am looking for a 2nd interface with ADAT out. What would you go with?

Hmm, what you want may not be possible, to have an ADAT audio interface take ADAT input from one device and send ADAT output to another. Everything will have to be on the same clock where you could end up with 2 captains on the ship.

No I don't want to take adat and run it thru anything. I'm just looking for an ADAT to run parallel to an ADAT that is going into an interface with two ADAT ins. So I have an extra ADAT in and thinking of a 2nd ADAT to go into it.

I have the typical interface with two ADAT ins. One will be the 1824c. Looking for a good option for the 2nd one.

I have used a Behringer ADA8200 for this application in the past.

I looked that up it looks like a good cheap option for about $250. As a preamp mixer it just became the top on my list so thanks. I did see one in listings for sale a Behringer ADA 8000 which AI tells me is not as good quality as the 8200.

However I am leaning more toward an interface because there are so many more USB audio instruments Roland TR 8S MC 707, TD 27 or TD 50, or Waldorf Kyra, or Yamaha or Elektron options for example that I can route in Windows thru ADAT only using USB connected interfaces with visible software outputs to route to the ADAT outs.
