1. INTRODUCTION BEHRINGER ULTRAMATCH is an essential tool for modern recording studios. The importance of digital technology has grown immensely during the past years in home-recording as well as in semi-professional and professional studios. More and more operations are executed on the digital level. As a result, sound engineers and musicians are confronted with a multitude of new connectors, signal leads, and changed standards. Incompatibilities between two different devices are normal, and ve

Unfortunately, these standards soon became watered-down, since a lot of devices simply did not provide enough space for XLR jacks. In these units, either TRS jacks,

2. THE CONCEPT The BEHRINGER ULTRAMATCH is an especially flexible device meeting all the requirements of digital appli- cations. Compared to most conventional sample rate converters, the ULTRAMATCH offers much more than mere sample rate conversion, due not only to various options for signal manipulation but also the provision of the complete input and output interface. The front panel of the ULTRAMATCH is strictly functional and has a user-oriented design. The nature of the input signal and the

+ Note: The ADAT multi-track format is not supported by the ULTRAMATCH and is therefore neither passed through nor converted (ADAT is a registrated trademark of Alesis Corp.). 2.2.4 Wordclock (BNC) The BNC jack on the rear panel allows to connect the ULTRAMATCH to a wordclock source for synchroniza- tion purposes (s. a. 3.3.4). Wordclock signals are normally distributed in network technology, i. e. they are passed through with BNC-T adapters and terminated with appropriate resistor elements. In

3.3.5 Connections with Adapters In some cases, it may be appropriate to connect the inputs and outputs of the ULTRAMATCH to other devices by means of adapter units. For example, if you want to connect two DAT recorders to the ULTRAMATCH at the same time, and each of these recorders features only an SPDIF interface (RCA), you can easily connect one of these recorders to the ULTRAMATCH by means of an RCA-XLR adapter. The figure below shows e. g. the correct wiring of the adapter cables for input c

5. MODE OF OPERATION The ULTRAMATCH is an all-purpose device for modern recording studios. It provides not only sample rate conversion but also format and standard conversion, and additionally allows you to manipulate part of the information transmitted with the audio signal. The ULTRAMATCH features no bypass mode, since input and output signal are practically identical if the same sample rate is applied to both input and output. + Note: Special data formats for backup purposes, that do not cont

6. APPLICATIONS The universal full-function concept of the ULTRAMATCH allows plenty of applications. It turns out to be an ultimate tool, providing useful solutions for almost any problem. The power of the ULTRAMATCH is accessible via a simple and intelligible user-interface, allowing quick and easy operation. 6.1 Sample Rate Conversion E No matter what kind of material is received, the ULTRAMATCH converts it to a standard format. In every-day studio life, lots of possible applications are imagi

the model collapses! The mixing console can only lock to one master source, the audio data received from the other device would be processed wrongly since no synchronization data are available. The only thing one would hear is interference. The synchronization requirements in a digital studio can be met by connecting a central sync master. For instance, the mixing console may act as master and controls all other devices by transmitting a reference code (word clock). However, this is only possibl
