Expert Sleepers ES-3 MK4

The ES-3 is a Eurorack format module which converts eight channels of ADAT Lightpipe input to DC coupled outputs on 3.5mm jacks, for the ultimate convenience in connection of a DAW directly to analogue synthesizers.

• Panel width: 8HP
• Module depth: 50mm
• Input connection: optical, ADAT Lightpipe standard
• D/A conversion: 24 bit, 113dB SNR typical
• Output connections: 8x 3.5mm jacks, DC-coupled
• Maximum output voltage: approximately ±10V DC
• Indicators: LED for ADAT clock sync; illuminated sockets indicate output voltage (+ve/-ve)
• Current draw: 148mA on the +12V rail, 18mA on the -12V rail

The front panel is drilled for both Doepfer and Analogue Systems mounting holes (using a 'slot' rather than a single round hole).

The power connector is a Doepfer standard 16 way IDC, with -12V furthest from the top of the board.

Functionally equivalent to the ES-3 mk3, the mk4 adds these improvements:

• Illuminated jack sockets
• Less deep
