Expert Sleepers - ES-8
- Order number: 160234
- Depth: 50
The ES-8 is a USB 2.0 class-compliant audio interface with DC-coupled inputs and outputs that can be used for both CVs and audio. It is directly compatible with all popular computer-based CV generation software as well as audio and CV processing iOS apps.
The module also has ADAT inputs & outputs which could be used to expand the output count or to connect a traditional audio interface.
The ES-8 is compatible with software like Silent Way, Max/MSP, Reaktor, CV Toolkit, zMors etc. and can also communicate with iOS applications.
Four inputs and eight outputs (3.5mm sockets) are available. being DC-coupled they are compatible both with audio and CVs.
In total the ES-8 offers twelfe input and sixteen output channels.
An expander header located on the PCB allows for connection an ES-5, to which in turn you can connect gate, CV and MIDI expanders from the ESX series, creating a very powerful system.
The optival Toslink sockets are ADAT connectors, one input and one output. Using them you can conenct an ES-3 and/or an ES-6 in order to expand the module by more outputs. Otherwise it would be possible to use the ADAT connectors with an audio interface, adding 1/4" line inputs, microphone pre-amplifiers etc.
The module works internally with a high quality clock but it can be synchronized optionally to the ADAT input signal. The sampling rate is selectable between 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz or 96 kHz.

Andrew Ostler (aka Oz) has gained a well-earned reputation not only with his do-it-all Disting module, but by providing a range of CV and audio signal converters that allow computers talk fluently to modulars, and vice versa.
