Magewell Pro Convert Audio DX Dante IP audio converter

Magewell Pro Convert Audio DX

Magewell Pro Convert Audio DX is a multi-format IP audio converter and capture device with Dante. It bridges analog audio, software and IP standards including Dante, NDI and SRT: balanced and unbalanced analog inputs and outputs, a 4-channel USB audio (UAC) connection to a computer, 8-channel Dante flows and two simultaneous 4-channel network audio streams over SRT, NDI, RTSP, RTMP(S), TS over UDP/RTP or HTTP(S).

A flexible virtual audio matrix, set from the web interface, routes or mixes any analog or IP input channel to any analog, IP or USB output, enabling mixed-technology local and remote production workflows and Pro AV installations. Dante routing and configuration are handled with Dante Controller and Dante Domain Manager, and the device can be managed remotely with Magewell Control Hub or HTTP APIs. It is powered by PoE or by the supplied 5V adapter.
