MUTEC MC1-2+ Silver – Advanced Bidirectional Digital Converter with USB Interface The MUTEC MC1-2+ Silver is a professional high-end digital converter that enables simultaneous bidirectional PCM signal conversion between USB, AES/EBU, AES3id, and S/P-DIF. Designed and manufactured in Germany, it combines technological precision with exceptional sound quality. Thanks to its asynchronous USB interface and low-noise audio clock oscillators, it reduces jitter and interference, ensuring flawless conversion and stable signal synchronization. This version features an elegant silver front panel, making it a perfect fit for high-end audio systems and professional studio installations.

Product Features Bidirectional PCM signal conversion up to 192 kHz between all digital audio interfaces. Simultaneous operation of inputs and outputs, including USB. Compliance with AES and IEC standards for full compatibility. USB power isolation and signal regeneration for enhanced audio quality. Low-noise audio clock oscillators to minimize jitter. Status lock indicators for USB and digital audio inputs. SCMS status bit analysis for S/P-DIF inputs. Separate display of input clock frequency for USB and digital audio inputs. Three power options: USB, internal switching power supply, external DC 9 V.

Advanced Signal Conversion Technology The MC1-2+ performs both electrical and actual format conversion according to the specifications of the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It allows the integration of non-USB devices into computer systems, simultaneous conversion to all outputs, and parallel signal transmission to a computer and other receivers.

Applications Professional recording studios. Broadcast installations. High-end audio systems. Integration of digital mixers, audio interfaces, and effects processors. Expanding sound reinforcement systems with devices using different digital interfaces.
