Features Sixty-four channel MADI/ADAT format converter MADI redistributor, patchbay and router Extensive status displays give information about Lock and Sync states and the physical quality of the incoming signal A fully automatic input selection between optical and coaxial input offers a useful redundancy mode for critical applications Supplies word clock in Single and Double Speed, distributes Double Wire 96kHz signals into the MADI data stream, is also capable of double MADI rate (96k Description Product Description The ADI-648 is a sixty-four channel format converter from MADI to ADAT and vice versa. MADI handles sixty-four channels of 24-bit audio at sampling frequencies up to 48kHz and thirty-two channels up to 96kHz. All channels are transferred across a single cable, using either a coaxial (BNC) or optical network cable. The ADAT channels are provided via eight TosLink optical inputs and outputs, respectively. Amongst other applications, the unit can serve as an MADI front-end for RME's Hammerfall and Hammerfall DSP series. An easy-configurable eight-channel 16x16 Matrix Router can assign any of the outputs, which are divided into eight-channel blocks, to any eight-channel input block, both on the ADAT and the MADI side. In addition to the routing within the MADI/ADAT conversion, the unit also performs splitting and routing within the same format.
