  • Page 2 Overview The Nemesis MADISW is a 64-channel MADI compliant digital audio switchover device. Primarily designed to switch between a main and backup MADI source, the MADISW can also be used as a distribution amplifier and format converter. Dual, wide-ranging power supplies and auto-switching input stages help to increase reliability in critical situations.

    YELLOW – Signal present at 88.2/96kHz. Please note that the MADISW is a switcher and not a processor, so the clock signal found in the distributor circuit is not multiplexed into the outgoing MADI signal, nor will the unit strip clock from any incoming MADI signal.
  • Page 4 REMOTE – 5 Pin Female XLR Connector. Connection point for a remote control box following the standard Nemesis remote control protocol. Allows connection of 2 buttons (“A” and “B”) and 2 indicator lamps (“Lamp A” and “Lamp B”). See “Technical Specifications” for connection pinout.
  • Page 5: Modes Of Operation

    Modes of Operation In order to maximize flexibility, the MADISW has several modes of operation built around varying pre-set internal routing strategies. These modes can be set by entering the configuration mode and selecting the routing required. 1) Default Factory Routing – Input Sources are connected to Channel A and Channel B using either the BNC or optical inputs (the optical source will take priority over the BNC).

  • Page 8 Nemesis MADISW A refined switching and routing solution based on Option 1 of the discussion above. The unit is tailored to provide flexible switching between 2 MADI sources into a receiving input, whist also taking care of redundant system connection, word clock distribution and format conversion between optical and co-axial MADI connections.
  • Page 9 Because all data remains in its native format the unit is able to switch all sample rates and MADI formats, as well as proprietary control and MIDI data, and is compatible with double rate/S-MUX data streams etc. Nemesis Audio...
