Overview
AE-4D 4-Channel AES/EBU Input/Output Dante Converter with built-in DSP Mixer
4 AES / EBU input / output Dante converter to respond to various needs of contractor market and professional audio scene.
The AE-4D is a compact converter that mutually converts AES/EBU signals and 4-channel Dante signals. With half the size of a standard 1U rack, the AE-4D is suitable for different Dante systems as an exquisite AES/EBU input/output unit. The built-in DSP mixer enables small scale systems to fully perform with a variety of input/output models the TASCAM Dante Compact Processor Series offers. AE-4D supports up to 96kHz/24bit and uses XLR connectors for AES/EBU output.
