The MADC-4 is an extremely high-quality, two-channel Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) that raises the bar on sound conversion. Offering the ultimate in sound transparency and depth, the Forssell Technologies MADC-4 opens up a new dimension in the realm of AD converters. 

Housed in a 1U rack mount enclosure, the MADC-4 is designed for the most demanding applications where capturing musical performances with accuracy is required.

Sample rates from 44.1k to 192k Fs are selected with a single front panel switch, and LED indicators display the selected sample rate.

Digital “clipping” is indicated with a single front panel LED that latches on until the “reset” switch is pressed.

Analog circuitry features an all Class A discrete JFET with no IC opamps used in the signal path.

The analog inputs use high-quality XLR connectors.

The digital outputs provided are AES3 (XLR),SPDIF (RCA), and Word Clock output (BNC) are provided. An additional Word Clock output is available as an option. The MADC-2 digital output word length is fixed at 24 bits.

In our studio, we had been using the well-known Danish converters DAD AX-24 (that for example Telarc has chosen as their exclusive converters and that are often considered as the very top in todays conversion).

After a detailed testing of Forssell Technologies ADC and comparing it to DAD AX-24, it was obvious that this top was substantially overcome. The utmost transparency, level of details, musicality and the sound depth - all these aspects were opened in a new dimension by Forssell Technologies ADC.

If we realise that all this for a fraction of price of  for example Lavry Gold, Prism Dream etc. (i.e. relatively older designs) and in a new level of quality, it is obvious that MADC-2 is an ideal choice for anyone who is seeking the ultimate quality of AD conversion for a price that is just a pleasant surprise ....
