RME M-1620 PRO 16x20 AD/DA Converter with AVB/Milan, ADAT, and MADIDesigned to meet the demanding requirements of professional studios, immersive sound installations, live sound systems, and industrial applications, the RME M1620 PRO converts 16 analog line level signals (per channel switchable up to +24 dBu) to and from popular digital formats like MADI, ADAT, and AVB Milan. It offers exceptional 24 bit 192 kHz audio quality thanks to its precision converters and proprietary SteadyClock FS technology, which ensures
Designed to meet the demanding requirements of professional studios, immersive sound installations, live-sound systems, and industrial applications, the RME M1620 PRO converts 16 analog line-level signals (per-channel switchable up to +24 dBu) to and from popular digital formats like MADI, ADAT, and AVB/Milan. It offers exceptional 24-bit /192 kHz audio quality thanks to its precision converters and proprietary SteadyClock FS technology, which ensures minimal jitter and a pristine signal path.
Built with reliability in mind, the M1620 PRO features redundant AVB and MADI connections, plus two redundant power supplies with monitored DC input, ensuring uninterrupted operation during mission-critical applications. This compact, 1 RU rackmountable unit boasts a user-friendly front panel with LED level meters, a display, and dual headphone outputs for convenient monitoring. Additionally, the M1620 PRO's versatile routing capabilities and extensive control options make it a powerful tool for both recording and live-sound applications.
- RME prioritizes reliability by equipping the M-1620 Pro with built-in redundancy. This includes dual AVB and dual MADI connections, along with a monitored DC input in addition to the internal AC power supply.
- A unique system clearly signals when an issue arises, ensuring seamless operation. With full standalone capability, users can adjust device settings directly on the unit for quick modifications or to recall entire user-defined presets.
- The M-1620 Pro integrates 128-channel, bidirectional AVB/Milan connectivity (at 48 kHz), with precise, fixed latency across a deterministic network.
- The M-1620 Pro allows manual configuration of the converter’s aliasing filters for optimal impulse and frequency response. Jitter on digital input signals is effectively reduced with SteadyClock FS.
- Separate word clock BNC and coaxial MADI connectors (with optional optical MADI via an SFP module), allow the device to be easily integrated into existing infrastructure.
- Users can control all device states directly from the front panel for convenient, direct access to all features.
- RME AVB devices can also be fully remote controlled via a web-interface on any network link (including wirelessly over Wi-Fi), allowing for the rapid creation of gain groups, phantom power switching, and routing of signals to headphones for monitoring.
- The integrated routing matrix allows single-channel routing across all analog and digital I/O, making problem-solving of signals, clocking, connectivity, or other issues both simple and straightforward.
- Small fluctuations of the clock frequency are referred to as "jitter", measured in nanoseconds (ns). The effects of jitter on the audio signal are many, from a somewhat rough sound quality to diminished treble localization, to clicks and dropouts in extreme cases.
- To solve these issues, RME has developed a proprietary technology for synchronization and jitter suppression in digital audio signals called SteadyClock.
