Hello all!

I have Pulsar+SRB and A16 (not ULTRA)
my question is, do i need to syncronize my A16 with other samplers/modules? Also i have a Kurzweil k2500r sampler.
To eleminate jitter, do i need to connect A16 to UPS or other power amplifier?

thank you

if you use the analog outs of the Kurzweil there's no special need for sync.
You can slave the A16 via Adat to Pulsar, or vice versa if the A16 will be on everytime.

Jitter is a natural matter of fact - strictly said it's unavoidable - but of course it's audible effect depends on the amount of clock instability.
It's not related to supply power unless the circuit has serious design flaws... :wink:

cheers, Tom
