24 Bit 192 kHz 8-Channel MADI/AES Format Converter72 x 72 Routing Matrix

The ADI-642, an 8-channel format converter from MADI to AES and vice versa, is the latest addition to RME's successful MADI series. Amongst other applications, the unit can serve as ideal AES/EBU frontend for the Hammerfall DSP MADI PCI card. Up to 192 kHz at 24 bit are supported. Its most outstanding feature is an easy-to-use 72 x 74 routing matrix, which can assign an individual input channel to every single output channel, allowing free configuration of all 64 MADI channels and the 8 AES channels. Additional features include:
The compact unit with 19" width and 1 unit height serves as format converter MADI to/from AES. MADI handles 64 channels of 24 bit audio at sampling frequencies up to 48kHz, 32 channels up to 96kHz, and 16 channels up to 192kHz. All channels are transferred across a single cable, either coaxial (BNC) or optical network cable. In both cases, cable lengths of more than 100 meters can be achieved. The AES/EBU channels are provided via 4 XLR inputs and outputs, respectively. The ADI-642 accepts 56 channels and 64 channels as well as 96k frame at its input, and can be set to generate those formats at its output. This way the ADI-642 even serves as perfect interface between otherwise incompatible MADI devices. |
Insensitive to electromagnetic disturbance
Optical cables can be run parallel to power cables etc.
No crosstalk, hum or potential differences
No influence on audio quality also in long distance applications
Considerably less weight
Optical fibres have become a new standard. Many manufacturers offer cables and connectors, and even... Weiterlesen 359  |
