Description

RME M-16 DA 16-Channel, High-End MADI/ADAT to Analog Converter, 19", 2RU M16DA

The M-16 DA designed by RME is an exceptionally high-quality 16-channel D/A converter. It utilizes (Multi-channel Audio Digital Interface) MADI technology that permits up to 64 channels of audio to flow freely without the shortcomings of multi-core cable-based digital audio technology. Not just does the M-16 DA offer the great converters, pristine audio circuitry, and RME's famous SteadyClock technology, but also the MADI protocol enables incredibly long cable runs of over 1 mile (2000 meters)!

In order to put the M-16 DA to use, you need to have a computer with either an internal RME MADI card (such as the HDSP MADI), or an external RME MADI interface (like the HDSPe MADIface). If you're setting up a system where you'll need MADI A/D conversion on the other end, you can use the 16-channel M-16 AD or the 32-channel M-32 AD.

The additional MADI port on the rear of the M-16 DA facilitates stacking multiple units together, which makes it possible to take advantage of the full 64-channels that this system is capable of delivering. With that magnitude of power, combined with the ability to send these signals great distances, makes this system a powerful tool for a wide range of professional applications. Live location recording, recording studio facilities, and installed systems in stadiums and theaters can all benefit from the excellent caliber of sound quality that RME is known for and that the M-16 DA will provide.

16-channel D/A converter, symmetrically designed in a 2 rack-space enclosure
Utilizes MADI (Multi-channel Audio Digital Interface) technology which allows up to 64 channels of audio to flow freely without the shortcomings of multi-core cable-based digital audio technology
Digital audio protocol enables cable runs of up 1.25 miles (2000 meters)
Fully MIDI controllable by sending MIDI messages over the MADI connection
During power on and power off, all noise is suppressed in the analog section
Zero delay compensation is necessary when stacking multiple units
16 6-segment LED meters
