About Lynx Studio PDM 1484 D

The Lynx Studio PDM 1484 D stands as a highly innovative and reliable 12G/3G/HD-SDI AES and Analog Audio Embedder/De-Embedder, expertly engineered to cater to the demanding needs of professional audio and video environments. This high-quality device is designed to seamlessly integrate into a wide array of SDI video formats, supporting up to 12G for superior performance.

Crafted with durability in mind, the PDM 1484 D boasts balanced AES/analog audio input and output capabilities through a robust 25-pin SubD connector. Its user-friendly interface features intuitive rotary switches for effortless selection of audio groups. For expanded functionality, users can cascade multiple modules together to embed and de-embed additional audio groups, enhancing the versatility of this innovative equipment.

One of the standout features of the PDM 1484 D is its ability to perform simultaneous embedding and de-embedding. This means the module can de-embed audio from the selected audio group and output it before overwriting with new audio content if necessary. This dual functionality ensures a streamlined workflow for professionals who require precision and efficiency in their operations.

The intelligent design of the PDM 1484 D includes automatic detection of audio formats, coupled with the deactivation of sample rate converters to maintain the integrity of encoded bit streams, such as DolbyE. This ensures that high-quality audio is preserved throughout the processing chain.

For scenarios where video input is absent, the PDM 1484 D's "auto black" mode becomes indispensable. It generates a black video frame, enabling the module to embed audio without a video source, making it an ideal solution for "audio-only" applications.

Compatibility with the yelloGUI software package further elevates the PDM 1484 D's capabilities, granting users access to a comprehensive range of internal settings. This includes the manual insertion of metadata such as AFD, WSS, and VI, providing professionals with the tools they need for meticulous audio-video synchronization.

Additionally, the PDM 1484 D includes a built-in 1 kHz test tone generator for audio testing and verification, ensuring that your setup is calibrated to perfection. The module also features an SDI fiber input and output, offering a selection of plug-in SFP options to accommodate various connectivity requirements.

In summary, the Lynx Studio PDM 1484 D is a durable, high-quality, and user-friendly solution for professionals seeking a reliable audio embedder/de-embedder. Its innovative features and compatibility with advanced software make it a top choice for those who demand excellence in their audio and video production workflows.
