Description
FERROFISH PULSE16 MX with “+24dBu” and “CV Out” options.
The analog inputs and outputs of this “+24dBu” version can receive and send levels of up to +24dBu instead of +20dBu. The PULSE16 converts 16 x 16 balanced analog inputs and outputs to studio quality ADAT and MADI I/O at up to 96kHz. As a cost-effective and mature interface, ADAT is already available almost everywhere – so adding 16 x 16 analog channels to your studio with the PULSE16 is done in a few steps. Additionally, the existing 32×32 ADAT channels can be routed to and from the MADI channels besides the analog channels.
The “CV-Out” option provides the possibility to output DC voltage at the analog outputs of the Pulse16 and thus enable “Control Voltages (CV)” for controlling analog modular systems (synthesizers) with a maximum of +24dBu.
The low latency A/D-D/A converters, accompanied by a temperature compensated clock and a jitter reduction PLL, guarantee the best crystal clear sound. All this packed in a compact 1U, the PULSE16 MX delivers SMPTE-compliant studio levels of up to +24dBu, individually adjustable in 1dB steps, brought to a total of 32 jack connections. Thanks to the 4 x 4 ADAT interfaces, 16 x 16 channels can still be easily converted at 96kHz without reduced channel count – or even via the 64 x 64 MADI channels, which is reduced to 32 x 32 channels at 96k.
The configuration of the device is child’s play thanks to the two TFT screens. A look into the manual is not necessary, all information is clearly displayed on the screens. Remote control via MIDI is also possible thanks to the free RemoteFish app (PC and Mac).
The headphone output can play almost any analog or digital input or output: Ideal for quick control of signals.
