Solid State Logic UMD192 High-Capacity Digital Audio Interface

The UMD192 delivers 192 channels of professional audio routing in a compact half-rack form factor. Designed for live sound, broadcast, and high-specification studio environments, this USB 3.0 interface bridges MADI, Dante, and USB with bidirectional audio between any two formats and split feed capability to the third. Six MADI BNC pairs support standard or redundant mode (three dual-redundant connections for mission-critical workflows), while fully interoperable Dante AoIP includes AES67 and ST 2110 support with ultra-low latency down to 0.25ms. Flexible clocking from MADI or Dante covers 44.1kHz to 192kHz sample rates, and multiple power options (AC, PoE, USB) enable redundant supply configurations. Class-compliant on macOS with ASIO driver support for Windows, the UMD192 integrates seamlessly with SSL System T, Oracle, and ORIGIN installations, Harrison 32Classic systems, or any professional setup requiring high-channel-count recording, playback, and format conversion.

Key Features:

• 192-Channel USB 3.0 Interface: Delivers 192 channels at 48/96kHz or 128 channels at 192kHz in a portable half-rack unit, providing high-capacity recording and playback for demanding professional applications.
• Flexible Format Bridging: Bidirectional audio between any two formats (MADI, Dante, USB) with the third format receiving a split feed, ideal for bridging MADI devices into Dante networks or high-channel USB workflows.
• Fully Interoperable Dante AoIP: AES67 and ST 2110 (with DDM) support delivers ultra-low latency down to 0.25ms with ruggedized Ethernet ports (2x Primary, 2x Secondary) featuring Link and Activity LEDs.
• Six MADI BNC Pairs with Redundancy: Configurable for standard operation or redundant mode with three dual-redundant MADI connections for mission-critical broadcast and live sound reliability.
• Multiple Power Options with Redundancy: AC mains, Power over Ethernet, or USB power sources can be used individually or combined (PoE + external PSU) for redundant supply configurations.
• Intuitive Front Panel with Lockout: High-visibility indicators display signal flow, sample rate sync, power status, and network connectivity, with lockable controls (Mode, Clock Source, MADI Redundancy) to prevent accidental changes during operation.
• Class-Compliant Operation: Native macOS Core Audio support requires no additional drivers, while Windows ASIO drivers (multi-client capable) enable multiple applications to access the interface simultaneously.
