RME ADI-6432 AES/MADI

The RME ADI-6432 24 Bit / 192 kHz, Bidirectional 2 x 64-Channel MADI / AES offers 64 channels of format conversion from MADI to AES and vice versa. Typical applications include two ADI-6432 used as digital multicore, or one unit used as AES/EBU frontend for the Hammerfall DSP MADI PCI card. Up to 192 kHz at 24-Bit are supported. Built with 2 units height there is enough space for all connectors and control elements. The RME ADI 6432 includes a unique status displays for MADI and AES, completely remote controlable via MIDI and MIDI data transfer via MADI. 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 as 32 AES/EBU inputs and outputs via D-sub connectors. The ADI-6432 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. The RME ADI-6432 24 Bit / 192 kHz, Bidirectional 2 x 64-Channel MADI / AES Main Features Include: RMEs SteadyClock(TM) lets the ADI-6432 use MADI without an additional word clock connection, and guarantees excellent clock quality in every situation. Optional analog expansion boards with 4 balanced in- or outputs SyncAlign and SyncCheck technologies ensures perfect synchronization and clear detection of errors. Also multiple units can be stacked and operated sample-aligned, using word clock. All settings are stored when the unit is switched off. Fully automatic input selection between optical and coaxial input offers a useful redundancy mode for critical applications. Detailed Sync and Audio State display with 97 LEDs. 16 MIDI channels can be transferred invisibly across MADI, at the full count of 64 audio channels. Fully remote controlled and configured via MIDI Compatible to MADI interfaces of companies like Sony, Merging, Lawo, Euphonix, Stagetec, Jünger, Audio Service, AMS and others.
