MC-4

The MC-4 is a high performance digital multichannel audio format and sampling rate converter for ADAT™, AES3 and S/P-DIF.ADAT™, AES/EBU and S/P-DIF interfaces working in one boxFormat and sampling rate conversions up to 192.0 kHzSMUX2 and SMUX4 support for ADAT™conversionsSignal improvement through audiophil-optimized PLL synthesizersExtremely flexible synchronization optionsSeparate AES11 reference clock input for e.g. broadcast useConverts standalone and bidirectionally with different sampling rates: X-SRC16 channel sampling rate conversion engine (SRC) for bidirectional conversionsContinuous signal supply in absence of the reference audio or clock signalRuns standalone in all SRC operation modes without needing an external master clock referenceAES11, Grade 1, internal reference clock (0.5 ppm)Word Clock output useable as master clock referenceEasy configurableUser settings will be stored in FLASH memory after switching-offRack space saving ½ 19” case allowing for mounting two devices side by side in one rack unitBuilt-in international power supplyApplicationsInterconnection of consumer and professional digital audio devicesAudiophil clock recovery and signal regenerationADAT™ + SMUX2/4, AES3 and S/P-DIF format and sampling rate conversionsIntegration of non-synchronizable devices, like musical instruments, DAT players, MD recorders or DAWs into digital studio environmentsRealtime bidirectional signal transfers between sends/returns of digital mixing consoles and effect processorsUni- and bidirectional interconnection of computerbased sound cards with professional digital audio equipmentUsable within small studio set-ups up to broadcast installations
