Description
MVR-64 multiverter mkII
The universal format converter: Everything in 1U!
For all your digital audio needs:
This unique piece of hardware is able to convert between an impressive selection of digital interfaces - any to any, all at once.
Supported Audio Interfaces
- ADAT (8x), SPDIF/AES3 optical
- MADI optical
- MADI coaxial
- MADI-TP (up to 2 ports)
- AES50 (up to 2 ports)
- Dante / AES67
- and many more via breakout boxes (currently planned: Waves Soundgrid, AVB, AES3)
Key features
- 64x64 channels on each interface with channel-wise routing/splitting between interfaces
- Integrated headphone amp
- Asynchronous sample rate conversion (plug-in module)
- Fully remote-controllable via web, telnet and USB. Run Live Demo
- Extensible to future interfaces via break-out boxes
What the multiverter can do for you:
- Interface your recording gear to any signal source
- Make your production truck or OB van compatible to anything
- Use your ethernet port as 64x64 recording interface with the Dante® Virtual Soundcard technology
- Sample-rate convert between any interfaces using the SRC-64 plugin module
- Send and receive low-latency, 64x64 audio over your standard ethernet network
- Bring your legacy gear up to date
...and anything else you can imagine!

Latency | The table below shows the overall latency (receive+convert+transmit) between the various interfaces in number of samples. For x1 modes (32/44.1/48kHz), n is 1. For x2 modes (64/88.2/96kHz), n is 2. For x4 modes (128/176.4/192kHz), n is 4. The Dante latency d depends on the setting in the Dante controller which should be chosen according to the network topology, and can range from 150µs to 5ms.
