Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, absolutely. It converts the CV/audio signals to ADAT for clean, reliable recording in your DAW, assuming your interface supports 8 mono inputs.
The AKM converters provide a noticeable improvement in dynamic range and harmonic distortion, resulting in a more detailed and musical sound—it avoids the harshness often found in budget interfaces.
While mini-jacks are common in Eurorack, they are more susceptible to damage than larger jacks; use care when patching and consider reinforced cables for frequent use.
