Magewell Pro Convert AES67 - Analogue Audio Interface to AES67 NDI and SRT
The Magewell Pro Convert AES67 audio interface allows you to use your trusted analogue audio equipment - compressors, equalisers or analogue power amplifiers - and adapt them to the world of audio networks. The Pro Convert AES67 processes the reception and transmission of digital data to and from analogue devices. The Pro Convert range is ultra-compact, making it ideal for use in the studio or for portable use in the field. Value-added features for live production applications include WebUI for remote control, a ¼-20 thread for accessory mounting, effective transmission of line audio using NDI, SRT, or Icecast and native AES67 audio over IP. The units can be powered via a DC adapter or via Power over Ethernet (PoE) for ease of deployment.

Web interface configuration
The Pro Convert AES67 can be controlled via a web-based user interface. With the Web UI, you can monitor device operating status, input signal status and configure settings for your sessions.
- Check the status of the device, audio, streaming, Ethernet and much more.
- Global settings (parameter configuration)
- PTP configuration
- Stream (NDI, SRT, Icecast TX/RX sessions)
- Audio Matrix tab - Switching matrix to selectively connect incoming signals to the desired output paths.
Audio routing matrix
- Output up to 22 channels and input up to 46 channels.
- Route any of the inputs to any of the outputs. Each channel of these outputs is completely independent and isolated from the others.
- The 46 x 22 cross performance audio matrix offers routing, mixing and volume adjustment functions for the inputs and outputs.
Multiple IP-based formats
Magewell Pro Convert AES67 is capable of serving IP-based formats such as Native AES67, SMPTE ST 2110-30 and Dante AES67.
