The Klark Teknik DN32-MADI is a 32-channel MADI expansion card for Midas M32 and Behringer X32 digital mixing consoles. It allows you to transmit and receive digital audio at 24-bit quality with a maximum sampling rate of 48 kHz over long distances using either optical fiber or coaxial cables. This enables you to connect your M32 or X32 console to various MADI-compatible devices for recording, broadcasting, and live-sound applications.
Connectivity and Redundancy
- DN32-MADI features optical duplex SC plugs (IEC874-19) to connect with MADI devices using multimode, optical-fiber cables up to 1640' in length.
- Dual BNC connectors are also provided for transmission on standard 75-ohm coaxial cables up to 328' in length.
- When both the optical and coaxial interfaces are utilized, the coaxial I/O serves as a redundant connection and is automatically activated should the optical connection become unavailable.
Versatile Routing
- The DN32-MADI card's input stream can accommodate up to 64 channels, 32 of which can be used inside your console.
- Likewise, 32 of these internal signals can be transmitted on the MADI output stream, replacing those of the corresponding input channels.
- This also means the MADI output channels not allocated to the console signals simply pass their corresponding input channels through.
- This convenient feature allows two consoles to be easily combined via their DN32-MADI cards to provide a total of 64 channels for live sound or recording.
Flexible Synchronization
- Both the BNC coaxial and optical-fiber inputs can also function as the word clock source for your mixing console.
- Alternately, the coaxial and optical outputs can transmit the console’s internal word clock to external devices.
