Ferrofish VERTOpro MX 64x64 MADI to Dante Converter

Product Description

The Ferrofish VERTOpro MX is a high-quality solution to connect a wide range of MADI equipment to a Dante/AES67 network with up to 192 kHz. The ultra-compact device is an easy way, to “dantify” an existing MADI live or studio setup with 64 x 64 channel operation. It can also simply turn MADI interfaces, like the RME MADIface series, into Audio-over-IP computer interfaces. Two MADI SFP interfaces provide maximum flexibility. They can operate as two independent MADI streams or as a redundant MADI connection. If one line is failing, the other one takes over – automatically, without any noticeable sample or IP packet loss. When operated independently, the two ports provide up to 128 input and 128 output MADI channels at sample rates up to 48 kHz.

Connected to a Dante network, the VERTOpro MX is immediately detected with all 128 I/Os and automatically configured. This way every room with a LAN connection can be used for recording or mixing – simply plug the device into the network and start to work. A high-resolution IPS color display provides direct access to metering, routing, clocking and device configuration. Sample rates of up to 192 kHz are supported.

MADI AND AUDIO-OVER-IP SEAMLESSLY INTEGRATED

The VERTOMX fits directly into scalable network infrastructures of the Dante Eco System. The fabulous Dante control software allows the routing of all channels freely within the network. The VERTOpro MX provides a coaxial MADI I/O via BNC and optical SFP module with LC connector. The default Multimode module can be exchanged with a Singlemode module. The VERTOMX can be remotely controlled via the Dante Network. MADI and Dante audio streams can be used to send and receive MIDI messages – embedded in the Dante or MADI signals.

DIGITAL MULTICORE LIGHTWEIGHT

MADI is the industry standard for multi-channel audio at modern concert tours around the globe, classical music recordings, install sound and music studios. Setups with several hundred channels in a complex setup, including recording interfaces, mixing consoles and converters to all existing audio formats, are easy to realize. Ferrofish consequently supports MADI and offers industry-leading products, like the VERTOMX and the high-density converters of the A-Series with seamless integration to other formats. 64- and 56-channel MADI formats are supported.

MADI TO THE NET

The Ferrofish VERTOpro MX delivers all the industry-leading features of Dante in a single compact device. Including 64 channels bi-directional transmission and port redundancy of both formats. VERTOpro MX simply adds Dante and AES67 connectivity to a MADI audio interface or converter. It can integrate isolated islands of MADI devices to a Dante network or add group of network devices to a MADI-driven mixing console. VERTOpro MX is out-of-the-box compatible with any other Dante-enabled device. It fits directly into the scalable network infrastructure – with the connection of a simple CAT5/6 cable. The device is immediately detected with all 64 I/Os and automatically configured. Every room with a Dante LAN connection can be used for recording or mixing – simply plug the VERTOpro MX into the network and start to work.
