Hosa 3' DB-9 Male to DB-9 Male D-Sub Sync & Control Cable for the Alesis Digital Audio Tape, ADAT, Hard Disk Recorders.

Hosa's friends at Alesis use 9-pin "D-Sub" cables to synchronize two or more ADAT or ADAT-XT digital multitrack recorders, and to connect their BRC remote control.

They changed their original specification for synchronization cables when it was found that ADAT power users with 2 or more ADATs and a BRC remote were putting a lot of bi-directional signal through that cable, creating crosstalk within the cable, which caused loss of sync and other strange phenomena.

Be advised that Hosa offers the CMT-400DS Series 9-pin D-sub cables made to the new, exacting specification. (The "DS" in the Hosa model number stands for double-shielded.) Available in five different lengths, CMT-400DS Series cables from Hosa are guaranteed ADAT compatible!
