The GENx192 from Lucid is a master Wordclock generator/distributor that exhibits ultra-low jitter, both internally and when converting any input frequency between 28kHz and 216kHz. Applications include multi-track recording, mastering, broadcast and as a master clock for DAWs or desktop recording interfaces.
The unit employs JIF (Jitter Input Filtering) on the input signal to remove jitter before sending it to the outputs. Any signal that comes in as a jittery clock is converted to a DC control voltage that drives the oscillators. External AES and Wordclock inputs are simultaneously converted to AES, Wordclock and S/PDIF outputs and the unit is also capable of multiple sample rate conversion.
The GENx192 can synchronize up to fourteen external devices at one time. Input dropouts are not a problem as the unit will simply switch to its internal oscillator and generate a rock solid clock. The master clock also features TS-75, 75Ω input/output termination and tri-state LEDs that indicate proper or improper termination on all Wordclock connections.
