The future-proof alternative
The Ferrofish A32proDante is a modern premium-class multichannel converter for all larger recording and mixing projects. Compared to the basic configuration, the A32pro Dante is additionally equipped with a redundant pair of network jacks for integration into a Dante network. Its extensive interface equipment allows a variety of control modes and the integration of older digital equipment such as interfaces, DAT recorders and other converters. Especially in environments with a large number of audio devices or an analog mixing console, the A32pro Dante is a powerful, compact single device for controlling all signal flows. The Dante connection makes the A32pro Dante ready to build your own audio network according to the latest specifications. At the same time, the A32pro Dante delivers the highest signal fidelity, stable operation with lowest latency, and uncomplicated setup and operation in the quality you have come to expect from Ferrofish. Thanks to its compatibility with popular digital formats and control directly on the device or via MIDI, usability is assured for years to come.
Connectivity & DSP Mixing Console
All digital and analog channels of the A32pro Dante can be routed to each other directly in the device and almost latency-free in 8-channel packets. This allows not only high-resolution conversion of analog and digital audio signals, but also conversion between Dante, ADAT and MADI formats. The A32pro Dante can be used as AD/DA converter and format converter at the same time due to its powerful DSP equipment. If, for example, an existing interface or converter with ADAT or MADI connections is to be used in a studio setup, the A32pro Dante can simply be connected in between and the setup is expanded by 32 analog I/Os.
Setup becomes a minor matter
The A32pro Dante digital converter allows 6 control channels: For convenient operation on the device - actually a contradiction in terms - Ferrofish has installed no less than 4 multi-touch TFT displays, which can also display the digital levels of all analog inputs and outputs simultaneously. The same possibilities are available via the driver software RemoteFish, which can be downloaded free of charge from the manufacturer. For this, the A32pro can be controlled via USB, MIDI, Dante or MADI. Via MADI and MIDIsimple MIDI CC commands are accepted as well; so the software is not necessary at least for controlling the basic functions. The additional GPIO interface allows switching presets and operating modes using a simple footswitch. By means of the Dante interface provided by Audinate, the A32pro Dante can also be controlled.
