MIDIMan CO2

A: A bi-directional S/PDIF to Toslink® converter.

Trying to dub from a DAT machine with S/PDIF coax outputs to another with S/PDIF optical inputs? Got an external A/D converter with S/PDIF optical outputs but an audio card that only accepts coax? Does your external D/A converter appear to be too far from your computer to use S/PDIF reliably?

If so, then CO2 will 'breathe' new life into your system! CO2 is a compact but rugged S/PDIF tool that will convert S/PDIF signals from optical to coax, and from coax to optical. Its clever 2-in 2-out design passes the original input signal through to one output jack, and the converted signal to the other output jack. This enables the CO2 to be used as a converter and/or repeater! And with its revolutionary low price, you can afford to use several in your studio!

Features:

• Converts optical S/PDIF to coax S/PDIF, and vice-versa.
• May also be used as a repeater for long cable runs.
• Two digital inputs: 1 Toslink® jack(optical fiber), 1 S/PDIF jack (RCA).
• Switch selects which input is the signal source.
• Two digital outputs, both always active: 1 Toslink® jack, 1 S/PDIF jack (RCA).
• Transformer-isolated RCA jacks prevent system ground loops.
