Description

The 4496-16 is the 4-Channel ADC, 4-Channel DAC configuration of the LavryBlue System.

The LavryBlue System is a modular design which allows the end user to populate the 1U 19″ chassis with stereo modules that provide a variety of functions. Each unit may hold up to 4 channels of microphone preamplification, up to 8 channels of analog to digital conversion (ADC) or 8 channels of digital to analog conversion (DAC); or a combination of these functions. Each module has two channels and fills either 1 or 2 of the 4 available module slots in the chassis. Basic systems can be ordered with a minimum of one stereo module, allowing user installation of additional modules at a later date.

MODULES AVAILABLE FOR THE 4496 CHASSIS:

  • LavryBlue M-AD 824: a 2-channel ADC module requiring 1 module slot.
  • LavryBlue M-DA 824: a 2-channel DAC module requiring 1 module slot.
  • LavryBlue MicPre Module: a 2-channel microphone preamplification module requiring 2 module slots.

In addition to these modules, any chassis which includes any ADC channels will also include a LavryBlue M-Sync.

This multichannel clock synchronization module features ultra-stable crystal-referenced internal or external sync operation at 44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 kHz. Wide lock mode is available for non-standard sample rates or vari-speed operation.

One M∙SYNC is required to provide clocking and synchronization for all M∙AD824 AD converter modules contained in the same 4496 chassis; This module also provides Word Clock out to synch other units and allow multiple racks of LavryBlue to function as one system.

ADVANTAGES OF THE MODULAR DESIGN:

  • Ideal for multi-channel systems.
  • Independent operation of the AD and DA converter clocking. Each M∙DA824 stereo DA converter module clocks from the incoming digital audio steam. This allows recording and playback at different sample rates with devices that are not synchronized; for example- record to a DAW at 96kHz while playing back a CD from a stand-alone CD player. Multiple M∙DA’s can also operate either independently for playback of unsynchronized sources at different sample rates, or sample-accurately in multi-channel systems.
  • Minimal systems can contain one AD, one DA, or one of each for stereo applications. Another popular configuration is one AD and two DA modules for “looping” a signal out of a DAW and monitoring the re-encoded signal; as in Mastering systems with analog and digital processing.
  • Microphone preamplifiers can be used independently of the converters, or with analog processing inserted between the MicPre and AD input.
  • Digital AES/XLR inputs and outputs are compatible with most SPDIF/RCA I/O using simple adapters or adapter cables.
  • Field expandability allows the system to grow as your needs change or budget allows.

KEY FEATURES

CLOCKING

  • Multichannel clock synchronization
  • Ultra-stable crystal-referenced internal or external sync operation at 44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 kHz
  • Wide lock mode is available for non-standard sample rates or vari-speed operation
  • One M·SYNC provides clocking and synchronization for all M·AD824 AD converter modules contained in the same 4496 chassis
  • Word Clock out to synch other units

ANALOG TO DIGITAL

  • 4 channels of sonically transparent 24 bit Lavry A-to-D conversion
  • Option to output digital audio 24 bit, 16 bit, or 16 bit plus dither and αcoustic βit Correction™ noise shaping.
