Remember to turn o and disconnect power and to disconnect
signal cables while working with the top cover removed.
1. Installation of USB2 CLASS2 card
Remove the top cover from the converter, unscrew the DIOCARD1 or DIOCARD2 slot plate
and install the USB card using the existing screws in either slot. If there is a Protools DIO card
installed it will work in slot 1 only. All other DIO cards including USB will work in either slot.
The card must be installed with the components facing up. Double check that all connector pins
match up with the pins of the connector on the main converter board properly. Pin mismatch
may damage the card or converter. Follow detailed installation instructions further below.
2. Driver Installation
Drivers should be installed before the rst connection of the converter to the computer. Most
current drivers are available in the download library at www.mytekdigital.com.
3. Connecting the card to the computer
Turn o the ADDA 8x192 converter before plugging in the USB cable. The computer can be left
turned on. After making the connections, the converter can be powered on.
4. Conguration
On rst power up of the converters, each converter should be recognized by the computer and
have the driver installed automatically. Further conguration of inputs and outputs is done in
your DAW software.
6. Card Instalation
The DIO USB2 CLASS2 card can be installed in either the DIOCARD1 or DIOCARD2 slot. The card can
be installed together with any other card available for the 8x192 converter. If Protools DIO card is
installed it will work in slot 1 only. All other DIO cards including USB2 CLASS2 will work in either slot.
Before installing the card, check if the converter’s
rmware supports DIO USB2 CLASS2 card (version 6.3 or
later). If not, contact Mytek and request current version.

7. Connecting Clock Signal Line
7.1 Single Converter
If a single converter is used in the system, using it’s internal clock will provide the best performance
(regardless of what a clock dealer will tell you.) If external clock is used for systemic reasons SAMPLE
RATE must be set to EXT. by pressing and holding EXT CLOCK SOURCE switch.
Attention! In a system with multiple units, double check that the
conguration of clock signal lines, synchronization sources and
sampling frequencies of all converters in the system are correct.
8. Master 8x192 ADDA converter front panel
Check if the selected sampling frequency of the converter (FS) matches the sampling frequency in
Control Panel
Correct clock conguration is necessary for the proper operation of the converters and for the best
sound quality. Make the 1st Mytek in the chain the clock master for the whole studio. There is no
benet of using a dedicated clock. Clocking o the Mytek’s internal clock generator produces superior
results because the clock and the clock line current drivers are the best in the industry.
Changing external synchronization source while the program is running may result in improper
operation of converters and loud cracks in the analog section.
9. Input Connection
There s one USB port on USB card which should be used for computer connection.
10. Signal Routing
ADDA8x192 converter provides the system with 8 input and 8 output channels. If more than two
channels are used, audio software which understands multichannel I/O must be used.
