MASTERLINK DESCRIPTION |
|
Create 24-bit Masters! The Alesis Masterlink is the only way to create 24-bit masters on standard CD. Of course, we know that 24-bit audio won't work on a standard CD player. But tomorrow's technology relies on high-resolution audio. Masterlink puts you on the crest of this new wave. You'll have a permanent, archived 24-bit master, ready for the audio standards of tomorrow. Need a CD for personal use, a quick demo copy, etc? No problem! Your full-resolution, archived recordings you create with Masterlink can still easily download to 16-bit. Alesis Masterlink At-a-Glance:
40GB Hard Drive Inside the mighty Alesis Masterlink is a 40 gigabyte IDE hard drive, which provides nearly 450 minutes of astonishingly detailed 24-bit / 96kHz audio, or a whopping 1800 minutes of standard 16-bit / 44.1kHz audio (which still sounds incredible). No data compression is used in any part of the Masterlink's recording process. What's more, there are actually 12 different combinations of bit rates and sampling frequencies. Hi-res Masters plus Bit-depth and Sample Rate Conversion The Alesis Masterlink is capable of doing full sample rate and bit rate conversion on any data you send it. You can record high-resolution audio for editing (crop, join, split, etc), DSP and playlist creation. Burn CDs to full Red Book standards or create high-resolution "CD24" master discs. What's more, the ML-9600 offers built-in digital signal processing using the 32-bit SHARC DSP chip. This gives you the ability to handle tasks like sample rate conversion, noise shaping, equalization, normalization, peak limiting, compression and even full fade for straight-to-press CD generation! Until recently, you needed a computer and additional expensive hardware and software to perform those tasks. Now, with the Alesis Masterlink, it's all possible on one machine. Easy Updating As music technology grows, your Alesis Masterlink comes fully prepared to keep up with the changes. Updating your software is easy: simply pop a CD-ROM with the new features and enhancements on it into the onboard CD transport and you're up-to-date within minutes. Balanced and Unbalanced Connectors Connectivity? No problem. For connecting to your hard disk recording capabilities, Masterlink sports dual balanced XLR analong inputs (+4dBu) and unbalanced RCA connectors (-10dBv). There are also balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA output connectors. For digital input and output, the unit features AES / EBU standard I/O via XLR connector. If you need S/PDIF ins and outs, the RCA jack on the back of the Masterlink will operate at the electrical levels of S/PDIF and also utilizes the exact mechanical characteristics.
