German-based audio and connectivity specialist DirectOut is announcing the release of the third generation of its popular ANDIAMO. The device comes with newly designed AD/DA Converters, network based audio and remote control.

“When we launched our first ANDIAMO in 2010, we already had the feeling that it would be a game changer”, Claudio Becker-Foss, CEO and CTO of DirectOut remembers, "and now, twelve years later, our clients can witness the evolution of ANDIAMO to again meet their expectations for an AD/DA Converter, they can count on.”

Optionally supporting network audio formats RAVENNA, Dante or SoundGrid, the 3rd generation ANDIAMO offers an amazing value of channels compared to 1U rack space. Up to 288 inputs and 288 outputs with internal routing matrix and failover redundancy using EARS™.

The device features 8 Summing Busses, Input and Output Gains and TRIM, hardware monitoring for PSU status and temperature and of course redundant power supplies. Remote control over network is available via globcon.

“While modernizing the feature set of one of the most reliable AD/DA converters on the market, we still wanted to keep it simple”, adds Becker-Foss. “Our goal was to make it possible to use the new ANDIAMO also without remote control if needed. A very straight forward bank routing, clock and I/O selection are directly accessible from the front panel.”
