In addition to studio-grade analog inputs and outputs up to 192kHz, the PULSE16 DX offers an impressive number of digital interfaces, ready for any task. All equipment, whether analog, ADAT, or MADI is brought together into the device, and can be distributed over a sophisticated routing matrix in groups of 8 channels. And that’s not all: The Dante interface with 64 x 64 channels (also integrated into the routing matrix), redundantly implemented via two RJ45 sockets, connects the PULSE16 DX to the network: Dante opens up a new dimension of flexibility. No matter which analog or digital signals are to be connected: the PULSE16 DX does the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked in a just 1HU, this highly integrated converter has 16 x 16 balanced analog TRS sockets using studio levels up to +20dBu – individually adjustable in 1dB steps. The Low Latency converters, accompanied with a a temperature-compensated clock and jitter reduction PLL guarantee best crystal clear sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBesides Dante, the 4 x 4 ADAT ports deliver enough bandwidth to convert all 16 x 16 analog signals at 96kHz, or even 32 x 32 channels at 48kHz. MADI adds another 64 x 64 channels, and is implemented using a modular SFP conection to offer different MADI standards (like Singlemode). Just replace the MADI module by a different model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfiguring the device is a breeze thanks to the two TFT screens. No need to consult the manual, every information is displayed clearly on the screens. Remote control via MIDI and MADI is also possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe headphone can be connected to any analog or digital input or output: ideal for control or monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fanless, compact 1HU device is the ultimate problem solver for studio, live sound, broadcast and recording – wherever high-end, multi-format conversion is needed in the Dante network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDante made easy: the perfect network solution for recording, broadcast, live sound, and house of worship\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Quality AD\/DA \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pulse DX uses the latest low latency AD\/DA converters. With a maximum sample rate of up to 192kHz and sophisticated external circuitry, they guarantee best sound with neutral frequency response and lowest THD + N. Using TRS jacks, all channels handle +20dBu studio level maximum, while each channel is individually adjustable in 1dB steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDante Plug \u0026amp; Play \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntegrate the Pulse16 DX seamlessly into your Dante network. Just plug it in and the device is visible on the network and ready to be routed freely using the Dante Controller software. Together with the Dante Virtual Soundcard, also from Audinate, the Pulse16 DX turns into a universal audio interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMADI Interface \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pulse16 DX has a modular MADI interface: The MADI SFP slot is equipped with an optical LC multimode module, which can be replaced, for example, by a Singlemode module. In addition to the 64 x 64 audio channels, a MIDI signal is also embedded, which can be used for device control and for routing to the MIDI interfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Routing Matrix \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll 176 x 176 analog and digital channels of the Pulse16 DX are brought together in groups of 8 using the internal routing matrix.
