A high-end and affordable multi-format MADI converter.
The PULSE16 MX is a high-quality solution to connect a wide range of Analog, MADI and ADAT equipment to a mixer or a computer interface with up to 192kHz. The high-density converter provides 16 x 16 balanced analog TRS-I/Os and can handle pro studio levels up to +20dBu, adjustable in 1dB steps. Optional +24 dBU I/Os and/or CV outputs are available.
The PULSE16 is using the high-performance low-latency converter generation from Cirrus Logic. Combined with a temperature-compensated high-precision clock and an active jitter reduction hardware design, the 226-channel MX delivers an exceptional detailed sound.
On the digital side, the multi-format device provides an optical MADI I/O with 64 I/Os. The 2 x 4 ADAT ports can convert all 16 analog I/Os, even with up to 96kHz. The Pulse16 MX incorporates a Word Clock I/O and a MIDI I/O for embedding signals and remote control of the unit. Many popular features from the flagship A32 have been added as well, such as Preset Management, Panel Lock and the sophisticated routing matrix.
