If you have a Pulsar2 w/ Classic, Plus, or 24ADAT, then you will need ADAT cables - 4 of them.

If you have a Pulsar2 w/ Zlink IO plate, then get two "Zlink Cable" which is a 6pin to 6pin FireWire IEEE-1394 cable, roughly $10 each. Only "A16 Ultra" - the new release of A16 - has Zlink. Old A16s do not have Zlink.

If you only need to use 8 of the A16 Ultra IOs, then half the number of cables.
