The Merging Technologies DA8P D/A Output Card DXD DSDallows you to customize your Horus or Hapi interface with 8 channels of analog line outputs. This second-generation DA8P card features a high-performance ESS ES9028PRO DA converter chip that delivers impressive specs with typical Dynamic Range of 127 dB A-weighted and THD+N in excess of -116 dB. The card also incorporates new refinements by adding local Low Phase Noise Oscillator circuitry to further improve the absolute transparency and stereo image of your analog signal, making it essentially void of both jitter and wander.

This DA8P Premium variant works at sampling rates up to 192 kHz as well as high-resolution DXD/384 kHz and DSD64, DSD128, and DSD256, ensuring that you play back every sound with the greatest accuracy.

Q: 2. could this be used on the Sony FX9 after version 3 firmware is released?

A: Yes it is possible to use this lens with the FX9 If you purchase an adapter. Please note that this lens is not designed to cover the Full Frame sensor inside the FX9 therefore it will not be possible to use this lens in Full Frame or even Super35 mode. The maximum resolution that you will get when using this lens is 1920x1080p.

Q: 3. will it charge windows and Mac devices?

Q: 4. Will it work with the Blackmagic Design STUDIO CAMERA 6K PRO?

A: With adapters, and power, as well as control you could connect the Fujinon XA20sx8.5BERM-K3 ENG Lens to the Blackmagic Design Studio Camera 6K Pro. However, the suggested camera when using B4 lenses is the Black Magic Ursa Broadcast G2. The Ursa comes with power support, as well as the B4 mount for Broadcast lens mounting.

Q: 5. What Gear Pitch is the Focus, Zoom, and Iris Gear's respectively?

A: The Fujinon XA20sx8.5BRM-K3 HD Professional Lens' focus zoom and Iris gear pitches are all a 0.6 pitch.

Q: 6. What is the mfr or BH part number to replace the lens cap that I lost for this model?

Q: 7. will this work with a Comtek receiver?

A: Yes. The Voice Technologies VT610TC125 Earphone with Coiled Tube BH #VOVT0072 will work with COMTEK IFB receivers (like the Comtek PR-216 Beltpack IFB Receiver (76 Channels between 216 to 217 MHz) BH #COPR216) with 3.5mm mono audio outputs: Voice Technologies VT610TC125 Specs Impedance 125 Ohm (+/- 30% @ 1kHz) Sensitivity 120 dB (+/- 3dB at 1kHz) Primary DC Resistance 44 Ohms (+/- 3 Ohm) Cable Length 5' (1.5 m) Connector 1/8" (3.5mm) Mono Plug

Q: 8. We want to use with a URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 for live switching. How is the lens powered from the URSA? There is no extender on this lens, correct?

A: Blackmagic Design Ursa Mini Pro 4.6K G2 offers a 12 pin hirose port for connection to B4 lenses. This will provide power. The Fujinon XA20sx8.5BRM-K3 provides this cable connection to connect to the Ursa Mini Pro 4.6K G2. You will still need the B4 adapter to mount the lens to the Ursa Mini Pro 4.6K Pro seen here: https://bhpho.to/2ZV5qWf There is no extender on Fujinon XA20sx8.5BRM-K3.

Q: 9. can this dock's m.2 drive function without plugging in the included power supply? also what input voltages does the dock's power supply support?

A: No, you would need to plugin the dock with the included power supply to access the M.2 drive (which does not come pre-installed).

Q: 10. Can I use this with a laptop headphones jack?

A: Yes, the Voice Technologies VT610TC125 Earphone with Coiled Tube could be used with a 3.5mm headphone jack output on a device such as a laptop. Because the connection on the VT610TC125 is Mono/TS and laptop headphone outputs are usually Stereo/TRS, the earphone may only output one side of the signal, or may sum the headphone output to mono.

[24-Bit] using for video editing, ProRes 4K 422 without hiccups! It is significantly faster that anything I have. It is well made, metal case, high quality. I wish it had an on/off button as I have to unplug it to switch off. Overall, great product. 5

[24-Bit] Adding this card to Ashly Digimix24 will release the full power of the mixer, allowing you to use all input/output channels in your PC/DAW/iPad. It works flawlessly, and my only minor complaint might be that the latency is not as low as e.g. my RME UCX, but still in the very close to it and in the unnoticeable side of things (about 5-6mS full duplex). This also has to do with the sample rate used (48KHz), while UCX can go up to 192KHz, which reduces latency further. All things considered, I suggest Ashly USB-32 without a second thought! Service of B&H was also awesome, arriving to the other end of the world (New Zealand) in very short time and without issues! 5

[24-Bit] This dock is outstanding! It unfortunately has received poor reviews, though, because of a problem that is very easy to resolve. On the back of the dock, there is a plastic insert that surrounds two Thunderbolt 3 ports (including the port that connects to your computer). This insert keeps the cable from securely fastening, making the computer connection quite unstable. However, this plastic piece is easy to remove, and with it off, the cable connection is solid. Since removing this piece, I have not experienced any connection drops. I ordered the 2 Terabyte SSD version, and its read and write speeds are consistent with the advertised specs. It writes at close to 1,100Mb/sec and reads at over 1,300Mb/sec. 5

[24-Bit] Can't understand why users and some reviewers give this fantastic little dac such low scores. Just because the software is not so good? For me it is all about the sound and here this little unassuming USB DAC excels like no other I have heard. Upmix everything to DSD 1x or 2x and use the ASIO driver via JRiver and you have perfect (and I mean PERFECT) sound. Just add decent components downstream to appreciate what this baby has to offer. I cannot recommend this product any higher - very well done Korg, and thank you. BTW, the little sibling namely the DS-DAC-100m is just as capable sound wise. I have both and use the 100 in my main system and the 100m in my office. The HP output is pretty good also for most cans. 5

[24-Bit] Excellent craftsmanship and performance. The SD card slot connection in all my external docks from various name brands are finicky. I think its an OS or computer hardware issue, this Glyph models seems less finicky. It does get quite warm. 5
