Mykerinos is Merging's answer to create a leading edge high performance audio processing card solution. It builds upon over 10 years of experience designing and manufacturing PC based Audio Cards and incorporates hundreds of users feedbacks into a compact flexible fourth generation solution.
Mykerinos specific:
PCI V2.1 compliant. Supports both 5 Volts and 3.3 Volts PCI environments
Based on 2nd generation Philips Trimedia 32 bit floating point processing VLIW technology
High Performance (upto > 400 MFlops sustained, 800 MB/s SDRAM interface, etc.)
On board Sync Connector, which includes Video Sync I/O supporting PAL, NTSC and all trilevel HDTV rates, VITC reader and generator, LTC reader and generator and built-in time code insertion into Video window.
2 channel 24 bit 96 kHz on-board monitoring output
ADAT I/O Daughter Card
This I/O daughter card features two sets of Toslink Optical connectors each carrying up to eight channels of 24-bit Audio in the ADAT compatible format. This provides up to 16 mono channels of input and 16 channels of output up to 48kHz and up to 8 channels at 96kHz in S/MUX compatible format. One of the sets can be programmed in software to carry SPDIF (or AES-EBU) formatted signals instead of ADAT. In this mode, total I/O is limited to 2 + 8 = 10 Digital Audio channels.
The DUA II is the smartest audio interface solution for Pyramix users, SOFTIMAGE®|DS users and audio professionals, designed for supporting a surround monitoring system.
Features include:
In a single unit, using industry standard audio connections:
4 CH analog line inputs,
4 CH analog line outputs,
2 CH analog line outputs + headphones connector for monitoring, 4 CH AES/EBU inputs,
4 CH AES/EBU outputs.
The signals from the inputs are also fed to the optical lightpipes in ADAT compatible format. This allows a direct connection to ADAT compatible multitrack devices and other devices such as digital consoles. These optical lightpipe connectors support up to 8 channels of 24 bit digital audio on one single optical fiber with no risk at all of line hum or any other electromagnetic interference.
Rugged internal power supply. This unit accepts both 110 and 220 voltages for worldwide use.
All audio connections are made using high quality balanced XLR type connectors.
Clear and easy to use front panel controls.
High quality 24 bit A/D and D/A using the latest generation in converter technology.
High common mode rejection balanced input circuitry on all analog input for optimum rejection of power line hum, RF interference, voltage drops and other externally generated noise commonly encountered with long audio cable runs.
All analog balanced output circuitry incorporates the advanced "Twin Servo Drive" output stage for maximum output signal balance ratio performance, even under adverse asymmetrical loads.
Fits into standard 1 unit 19” rack.
Local control from the front panel (in stand-alone mode).
Remote control from Pyramix Virtual Studio software.
Selectable stereo monitoring of all 8 inputs and outputs.
V ery comprehensive choice of synchronization sources.
Very low jitter and calibrated internal clock.
