The SAM1 MADI is a sophisticated device that provides multiple source monitoring of up to 20 channels of audio from MADI, embedded HD-SDI, AES and analogue sources on a user-configurable screen, providing immediate access to any combination of formats, delivering a comprehensive visual and audio feedback for confidence monitoring in a compact unit.
The unit is suited to those needing confidence monitoring in a mixed multichannel environment including HD-SDI, MADI, AES and analogue audio where comprehensive visual and audio feedback is required in a compact format. Ideal for Sound Engineers to check the integrity of their MADI signals, Broadcast Studio Engineers who use MADI to transport multiple channels of audio around their facility and production operators involved in programme making within studios or on OB trucks where MADI technology is implemented.
MADI is a cost effective means to transport up to 64 channels of audio over a single coax or fibre cable, until now the choice of monitoring devices has been extremely limited; the SAM1 MADI addresses the lack of appropriate solutions and is a product designed after a period of in depth market consulation to deliver exactly what the industry has asked for.

Channels can be defined as being mono, stereo or 5.1 downmixed group via a single button press with a simple colour scheme providing instant user recognition of the channel configuration. Furthermore, the operator can mix multiple signals together and adjust individual mix levels if required to create a personal monitoring environment that meets their exact requirements.
