Ferrofish PULSE16 DX 16-Channel AD/DA, Dante, MADI and ADAT Converter PULS

The Swiss-Army knife of audio. Dantified The PULSE16 DX is the high-quality solution to connect and route a wide range of Analog, MADI, ADAT and Dante equipment - with up to 192 kHz. The high-density converter provides 16 x 16 balanced analogue TRS-I/Os. Combined with a temperature-compensated high-precision clock and an active jitter reduction hardware design, the 354-channel DX delivers an exceptional detailed sound.On the digital side, the multi-format device provides an optical MADI I/O with 64 I/Os. 2 x 4 ADAT ports can convert all 16 analog I/Os - even with up to 96 kHz. On top of it, the DX adds 64 x 64 channels of Dante/AES67 to an already impressive array of various I/Os - unique in this size and price range. The PULSE16 DX 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: Preset Management, Panel Lock and the sophisticated routing matrix.All in all the fan-less, small footprint device is a huge problem solver for studio and live sound applications. High Quality AD/DA The PULSE16 DX uses the most recent low-latency AD&DA generation from Cirrus Logic. The high performance converters capture and restore audio signals with all details, a highly neutral frequency response and low distortion. All analog inputs and output are using balanced TRS jacks and can be set independently to levels between -8dBu and +20dBu in steps of 1 dB. Dante Plug & Play Eco System The PULSE16 DX fits directly into scalable network infrastructures of the Dante Eco System - with Plug & Play. The powerful Dante control software allows the routing of all channels freely within the network. Combined with the Virtual Dante soundcard, the PULSE16 DX turns into a powerful audio interface. Optical MADI I/O The PULSE16 DX provides a MADI SFP module with optical LC connector. The MADI I/O supports daisy-chain delay compensation and carries MIDI-over-MADI. The default Multimode module can be exchanged with a Singlemode module. Internal Routing Matrix The PULSE16 DX provides a sophisticated internal matrix for the free routing and splitting of all 176 Ins to all 176 Outs in blocks of 8 channels. The headphone output on the front allows it to monitor every mono or stereo I/O directly on the unit. Dual TFT Display Two high-resolution TFT displays provide detailed level information for all 2 x 16 analog signals - allowing the overview of the signal flow in and out of the unit. The innovative on-board contextual help, much loved by Ferrofish users, allows it to use the high-tech device, without reaching for the manual. Flexible Remote Control The PULSE16 DX can be remotely controlled via MIDI, MIDI-over-MADI and the Dante Network. Dante and MADI audio streams can be used to send and receive embedded MIDI messages. Inputs & Outputs Analog I/O The PULSE16 DX provides a unique flexible level setup for all analog inputs and outputs. Every I/O can be set to a
