German manufacturer Ferrofish has announced the Verto 32, Verto 64 and Verto MX interfaces, supporting integration of digital Adat and Madi audio formats into a Dante environment.
The half-rack Verto 32 and Verto 64 offer Adat, while the Verto MX supports both BNC and Optical Madi, and can be used in Single or Multimode Madi with an optional Single Mode Madi Module. All three devices provide word clock I/O for external synchronisation and can be controlled remotely.
The Verto Series can be used alongside other Ferrofish interfaces, such as the A16 MkII, A32 or Pulse16, as well as other converter brands via the Adat or Madi I/O. Further, the Verto Series (and all other converters from Ferrofish) can be remotely controlled via the Dante network. If all devices are connected via Midi, the Verto unit converts all Dante audio streams to Adat or Madi and the control commands sent over Dante into Midi remote control messages. The Verto MX offers an additional feature – instead of a separate Midi Port the Midi messages are extracted from the Midi-over-Madi port. Verto 32 and 64 models range from 44.1kHz–96kHz, while the Verto MX supports frequencies from 44.1kHz–192kHz.
The channel count varies with each model depending on the sampling frequency selected – providing further options. The Verto 32 supports 32 1/O channels at 48kHz or 16 I/O channels at 96kHz, while the Verto 64 supports 64 I/O channels at 48kHz or 32 I/O channels at 96kHz. The Verto MX supports 64 I/O channels at 48kHz, 32 I/O channels at 96kHz or 16 I/O channels at 192kHz.
‘The Ferrofish Verto Series is the ultimate tool for just about any audio integration,’ says Synthax MD Mathias von Heydekampf, distributor of Ferrofish. ‘With the ability to speak in multiple audio formats, it can reduce the need for additional rack gear in broadcast and integration environments. Further, the Verto series can be controlled remotely from just about any location, and delivers word clock I/O for external synchronisation. Our customers will also appreciate its premium conversion quality and its diminutive size.’
