Ferrofish to launch new Pulse 16 AD/DA Converter and Verto Series Dante Converters at Musikmesse 2017

Ferrofish to show 4 new products for the first time at the Musikmesse show in Frankfurt 2017

German manufacturer Ferrofish has announced the addition of several new products to its existing line-up of pro audio solutions – the Pulse16 AD/DA Converter and the Verto³², Verto⁶⁴, Verto^MX Dante Converters. Both the Pulse16 and the Verto Series will be showcased to the public for the first time at this year's Musikmesse show in Frankfurt, Germany.

Ferrofish Pulse16

16 x 16 AD/DA <> ADAT converter

With the Pulse16, Ferrofish continues their successful tradition of designing high-quality and affordable AD/DA converters, expanding the existing range that consists of the A16 MK-II, A32 and A32 Dante. The new Pulse16 offers 16 x 16 balanced analogue inputs and outputs, and can handle pro studio levels up to +20dBu. On the digital side, four ADAT I/O ports provide a full 16 x 16 channel operation even in 96 kHz SMUX mode.

Full control and easy operation

The headphones output on the front panel of the Pulse16 allows you to monitor every mono or stereo signal on the fly, and two TFT displays provide detailed level information for all 32 signals at a glance. The innovative on-board contextual help, much loved by A32 users, is also visible when navigating through menus and makes using the Pulse16 a breeze.

Exceptional sound quality

Using the most recent converter generation from Cirrus Logic combined with an active digital jitter reduction circuit results in an exceptionally detailed resolution and great overall sound.  Whether you’re working in 48 kHz or 96 kHz – the Ferrofish Pulse16 always delivers a full complement of 16 x 16 channels at the highest quality.

Ferrofish Verto³² / Verto⁶⁴ / Verto^MX

Dante Digital converter

The Ferrofish Verto series is a range of compact digital format converters, designed to provide simple integration of ADAT and MADI devices into an existing Dante network.

Each Verto device features word clock I/O for external synchronisation and is remote controllable via MIDI or MIDI over MADI (Verto MX). Whether paired with Ferrofish’s own A16 MK-II, A32 or Pulse16, or another brand’s converter, the Verto provides support for all devices when connected via ADAT or MADI.

Remote control via the Dante network

Like all Ferrofish converters, the Verto Series can be controlled remotely via the Dante Network. When all devices are connected via MIDI, the VERTO converts all Dante audio streams to ADAT or MADI, and the control commands sent over Dante into MIDI remote control messages.

The Verto MX also offers an additional feature: Instead of a separate MIDI Port, the MIDI messages are extracted from the MIDI-over-MADI port.
