INTRODUCTION

Thank you very much for purchasing the

MC-1.1+, Digital Audio Format

Converter, from MUTEC!

General Function Description

The MC-1.1+ is a multifunctional, high-performance digital audio format
converter for AES3, AES3id and S/P-DIF. Using latest digital audio circuit-
ries and low-jitter PLLs, the MC-1.1+ enables to improve and re-stabilize
incoming digital audio signals, while converting and splitting those to the
corresponding outputs. all audio formats can be processed up to 192.0kHz.

The MC-1.1+ helps you to interconnect devices which use different digital
audio formats and incompatible interfaces. The format conversion process
does not only the necessary electrical conversion but also a format conversi-
on of the reference signals in compliance with the specifications which are
standardized by the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and the International
Electrotechnical Commision (IEC).

Dual low-jitter PLL circuitries allow to run two signal paths independently for
realtime bidirectional format conversions. Additionally, the MC-1.1+ provides
two outputs for each digital audio format which enables the use as signal
splitter or distribution amplifier.

Various uni- and bidirectional operation modes, 4-way signal splitting,
SCMS processing or signal status detection make the use of the MC-1.1+
possible in a wide range of applications.

Features

AES/EBU3, AES3/EBUid and S/P-DIF optical/coaxial interfaces in one box.
Uni- and bidirectional format conversions from 32.0kHz to 192.0kHz bet-
ween AES3/11 and S/P-DIF.
Simultaneous format conversion to all output formats while allowing
the original signal to pass through.
Signal improvement by low-jitter audio PLLs.
AES3/11, AES3id/11id and S/P-DIF optical/coaxial signal splitting.

Easy configurable.
User‘s settings will be stored after switching-off.
Rack space saving 1/2 19“ case allows for mounting two devices in one
rack unit.
Built-in international power supply.

Applications

Interconnection of consumer and professional digital audio devices.
Realtime bi-directional signal transfer and format conversion between
send/returns of digital mixing consoles and effect processors.
Uni- or bi-directional interconnection of computer-based sound cards
with professional digital audio equipment.
AES3/AES11 and S/P-DIF signal splitting and distribution.
Digital audio signal refreshing.
SCMS coding of digial audio productions to protect those against illegal
copying.
S/P-DIF optical/coaxial status analyzing.
