MADI Routing Made Simple!

Are you mad about MADI, or just mad at MADI for being so darn complicated? Don't give up, get MADI-X8, that is, the Solid State Logic MADI-X8 512 x 512, 8-port audio distribution and aggregation system that will make your MADI network sing. Rout MADI channels to and from any MADI source to as many others as you need - in real time! No need to tear out your hair, SSL's cross-platform Logicitivty Browser software makes setting up even complex routing schemes a breeze. And since the MADI-X8 operates remotely over a wired or Wi-Fi network, tweaking your system is simple. On top of that, the MADI-X8 also acts as a 1-in/3-out clock distribution system. What's more, you can combine multiple MADI-X8s together (up to four) for massive routing power. And since the Solid State Logic MADI-X8 is so inexpensive, you don't have to be a huge media production facility, broadcast house, or film/video game scoring operation to afford the luxury of MADI!
