Solid State Logic MADI-X8 – Professional 8-Port MADI Routing System
The Solid State Logic MADI-X8 is a professional-grade MADI routing and distribution system designed for large-scale audio networking applications. It provides flexible routing, splitting, and aggregation of multichannel digital audio across complex studio, broadcast, and live sound environments.
High-Density 8-Port MADI Connectivity
The MADI-X8 features 8 MADI I/O ports (6 optical and 2 coaxial), enabling the connection of multiple digital audio devices across a unified network. It is designed to handle large multichannel audio workflows with minimal latency and maximum reliability.
512 x 512 Routing Matrix
At its core, the system provides a powerful 512 x 512 crosspoint routing matrix, allowing any input channel to be routed to any output. This enables complex signal distribution, multi-room audio sharing, and flexible studio integration without patchbay limitations.
Advanced Audio Distribution and Aggregation
The MADI-X8 supports three core routing modes:
- Point-to-point routing for direct signal paths
- Source distribution (one source to multiple destinations)
- Source aggregation (combining multiple inputs into a single output stream)
Network-Controlled Operation
The system is controlled via SSL Logictivity browser software over Ethernet, allowing remote configuration from standard computers or networks. Multiple units can be managed simultaneously, making it scalable for large installations.
Precision Clocking and Redundancy
The MADI-X8 includes intelligent clock management with automatic failover between primary and secondary clock sources. It supports word clock and MADI-based clocking, ensuring stable synchronization across all connected devices.
Preset Recall and Workflow Efficiency
Up to 128 routing presets can be stored internally, enabling instant recall of complex studio configurations. This makes it highly efficient for broadcast environments, live production, and multi-room studios where fast session switching is required.
Low-Latency Professional Performance
Designed for critical audio environments, the system operates with extremely low roundtrip latency and maintains signal integrity across all routing operations, even in large-scale configurations.
