The company is exhibiting a total of three CDC six consoles, along with a CDC eight-32 and a CDC eight-16 console on the booth. These are networked and running audio via the CDC MC Router and MegaCOMMS audio network, demonstrating the industry leading sub 400?s system latency (from on-stage inputs to outputs - including all console processing and all AD/DA conversions). CADAC's micro second latency performance compares with the millisecond latency claimed for competing consoles and networks. The latency is married with absolute phase coherence, resulting from complete sample synchronization before summing, to provide exemplary audio performance in a digital audio network, capable of transmitting up to 3072 channels of bi-directional 24-bit/96kHz audio, control data and clock, on up to 150 metres of RG6 cable.
Cadac's CDC MC MADI and CDC MC Dante network bridges will also be running on the network, and the integrated Waves soundcard on a CDC six will be running Waves MultiRack SoundGrid server, which enables up to 64 channels of Waves studio-grade plug-ins to simultaneously run alongside the native effects options (on both the CDC six and CDC eight), with the Waves GUI displayed on the console's touch screen for control.
Cadac is also showing the LIVE1 compact analogue and CDC four:m compact digital consoles on its booth.
