Details

Controls: Front-panel gain/input selectors, metering

I/O: 2x XLR line in (>5kΩ, pin2 hot), 2x XLR mic in w/ switchable 48V phantom, gain to +54 dB in 1 dB steps; 2x AES/EBU out (XLR, single/double-wire), S/PDIF out (RCA); optional Firewire

Notable use: Documented use in film scoring and professional recording studios

Notes: FLAG: this is the 'ADC' referenced in task scope. THD+N <−103 dBFS @ −3 dBFS out, SNR >110 dB unweighted, crosstalk <−120 dB, latency 1.38–2.6 ms depending on sample rate. Weiss's own store lists SFr 7,900 (base) / SFr 8,600 (ADC2-FW w/ Firewire), CHF only, no USD. A secondary-market summary cited ~$8,870 USD but source was not a confirmed authorized-dealer listing, so price_usd left blank per no-conversion/no-guess rule.
