Add 8 Analog Inputs to Your Hammerfall Card!

Add extra analog inputs to your RME Hammerfall card! The RME AEB8-I offers 8 inputs with 4 stereo TRS jacks. Usual insert cable can be used to split the connectors from stereo jack to mono jacks. Level adjustment +4 dBu/-10dBV, 107dBA S/N ratio and highest suppression of PC noise guarantee perfect sound quality.

Using the AEB8-I Analog Expansion Board is very easy to do, thanks to the clearly structured and informative Settings dialog on the RME cards. The AEB8-I operates like any other converter with ADAT output, but is connected internally. The AEB8-I gets its clock from the DIGI (thus works as slave). To avoid a clock loop, switch your Hammerfall card into "Master".

The AEB8-I is easy to install using the supplied bracket, or - as no contact to any slot on the motherboard is needed - at any other location inside the computer. Nuts for all TRS jacks and a drilling template are included.

RME AEB8-I Analog Expansion Board Configuration Options:

• HDSP 9652: Two AEBx-I and two AEBx-O or two TEB can be connected and operated simultaneously, in all possible combinations. One TEB can be used together with either one AEBx-I or AEBx-O.
  
• DIGI96 SERIES: AEBs use the internal ADAT interface of the DIGI cards. Therefore they do not work with the DIGI96 (which did not support ADAT.) To operate the AEB4-I and AEB8-I the used DIGIs must have the connectors ST6/7 on board (for the Word Clock Module.) These were not present on the very first cards of the DIGI96 series (1998 to beginning of 1999.) One AEBx-I and one AEBx-O can be connected and operated simultaneously, in all possible combinations (or one TEB).
  
• HAMMERFALL DSP MULTIFACE/DIGIFACE: Multiface and Digiface use the Hammerfall DSP PCI card. This card has no internal inputs or outputs. Therefore no Expansion Boards can be used.
  
• HAMMERFALL SERIES: An operation with the Hammerfall or Hammerfall Light requires board revision 1.5 or higher, because the internal connectors ADAT1Out, ADAT2Out and ST7 were not implemented in earlier versions. One AEBx-I and two AEBx-O can be connected and operated simultaneously, in all possible combinations (or one TEB and one AEBx-O).
