The SPL Madicon is a USB digital interface connecting up to 64 inputs and 64 outputs via USB to the computer. Madicon introduces SmartMADI, which allows daisy chaining Madison 16-ch AD/DA converters and communicating sample rate changes through the MADI stream. It features an additional optical Toslink output for channels 1/2 to allow connection to a DAC in the control room while the Madisons operate in the recording rooms. Instead of many analog wires with expensive wall connectors only two tiny MADI cables are required.
