RME ADI6432 R Bidirectional MADI/AES Format Converter

Explore the Pinnacle of Audio Conversion with the RME ADI-6432R
Dive into the world of professional audio with the RME ADI-6432R, a 64-channel bidirectional MADI/AES format converter that sets the standard for studio and broadcast applications. This powerhouse tool excels in converting MADI to AES/EBU and vice versa, supporting up to 192kHz sample rates. Ideal for high-demand environments, the ADI-6432R ensures flawless audio transmission across single coaxial or optical network cables, catering to complex setups like digital multicore systems or as a dedicated AES/EBU frontend for the Hammerfall DSP MADI PCI card.

Dual Redundant Power Supplies for Fail-Safe Operation
In broadcasting and live production, equipment reliability is paramount. The ADI-6432R addresses this need with dual redundant power supplies, allowing the unit to continue operating smoothly even if one power source fails. This feature provides peace of mind for audio professionals who cannot afford any interruptions during live broadcasts or recording sessions.

Precision Clocking with RME's SteadyClock Technology
At the heart of the ADI-6432R is RME's acclaimed SteadyClock technology, which guarantees extremely low jitter and superb clock quality under any condition. Intelligent Clock Control (ICC) preserves the last valid sample frequency in the event of a signal loss, ensuring continuous, stable operation. Nearly 100 LEDs on the unit's front panel provide precise monitoring of signal status, lock, and sync states, enabling immediate error detection and resolution.

Advanced Connectivity and Control
The ADI-6432R goes beyond simple format conversion by offering extensive control features. It includes a fully automatic input selection between optical and coaxial inputs, providing a redundancy mode essential for critical applications. For enhanced operational flexibility, the unit can also transfer MIDI data across MADI, even alongside 64 audio channels. Each device in a multi-unit setup can be assigned a separate ID, allowing for individual remote control through a single MIDI channel.

Seamless Integration and Versatile Functionality
This format converter is not only a robust audio tool but also a strategic solution for integrating with other MADI-compatible devices from leading manufacturers. The ADI-6432R can function as a MADI extender for serial cables via its RS232 9-pin COM port, adding another layer of utility without affecting audio functionality. Whether merging MADI streams or extending digital connections, this unit is indispensable for modern audio infrastructures.
