Hi Ruslan
quote:
What would be the advantages of getting EtherSound over M-MADI besides less cable to run?
Both EtherSound and MADI carry up to 64 Channels of bidirectional audio.
MADI requires 2 75 Ohm Coaxial cables for bidirectional (Record and playback) transmission; EtherSound only requires 1 cat5e cable.
For direct recording purposes there is no major advantage with using EtherSound over MADI
EtherSound becomes more of an advantage when creating larger Audio networks as all I/O routing can be controlled remotely from a laptop on the EtherSound network.
