Focused and deliberate, the ANDIAMO is a high-end AD/DA converter built for clarity at scale. Thirty-two channels of analogue I/O meet a flexible digital core, allowing signals to move seamlessly between analogue, MADI, and networked environments.

Housed in a compact 1U form, it brings the sonic character of the Prodigy platform into a more streamlined device, without losing precision. Routing, control, and redundancy are handled quietly in the background, keeping the system stable and the workflow uninterrupted. 

Adaptable by design, ANDIAMO is less about fixed configuration and more about choosing the right connection for the system it supports.

Key Features

32-channel high-end AD/DA conversion (analogue ↔ digital)

Dual MADI I/O via SFP for flexible digital connectivity

Optional network audio integration (Dante, RAVENNA/AES67, SoundGrid)

Up to 288 channels with combined analogue, MADI, and network audio

globcon remote control with per-channel routing and level management

Redundant power supplies and network paths for reliable operation

EARS™ automatic redundancy switching for uninterrupted audio

Compact 1RU chassis for touring, broadcast, and installation use

Standard Version

The standard ANDIAMO is built around MADI as its primary format.

Uses dual MADI connections for stable, point-to-point audio transport

Ideal for traditional digital infrastructures and touring systems

Network audio can be added later via optional modules

A fixed, dependable foundation well suited to established MADI workflows.

FAQ

Which audio formats and protocols are supported?

ANDIAMO supports:

This allows seamless integration into both traditional digital audio systems and modern audio-over-IP workflows. 

How does the ANDIAMO handle redundancy?

ANDIAMO is designed for mission-critical environments and includes:

  • Dual MADI ports for seamless redundancy
  • Dual network ports for redundant audio-over-IP operation
  • EARS™ automatic failover switching
  • Dual redundant power supplies

These features ensure uninterrupted operation in live and broadcast applications. 

How is the ANDIAMO controlled and configured?

The system is controlled via:

  • globcon control software (Windows/macOS)
  • Dedicated Ethernet port for remote management
  • Front-panel controls for quick access to key functions

This allows both detailed system configuration and simple on-device operation. 

Is the ANDIAMO suitable for touring and playback systems?

Yes. Its 1U form factor, high channel density, and robust redundancy features make it ideal for touring playback rigs and live production systems where space, reliability, and sound quality are critical.

Is the ANDIAMO suitable for audio-over-IP (AoIP) Broadcast systems?

Yes. With optional network modules, ANDIAMO supports AES67 and Dante, and is compatible with SMPTE ST 2110 workflows, making it suitable for modern broadcast and IP-based audio infrastructures.

Can I mix ANDIAMO versions in the same system?

Yes. All ANDIAMO models are designed to integrate into larger hybrid systems, and can be combined using format bridging (for example via MADI, Dante, or AES67 gateways depending on configuration).

In practice, many systems use a combination:

  • MADI units for console and stage connectivity
  • Dante or Ravenna units for network distribution
  • SoundGrid units for dedicated live processing workflows

Because all variants share the same 32-channel AD/DA platform and globcon control ecosystem, they can operate side-by-side within larger DirectOut infrastructures without compromising workflow consistency.
