RAV.RAV.SRC.IO is a dual network audio module for the PRODIGY Series and MAVEN.A to interface with 2 x 64 channels of RAVENNA streams.

One module, two audio engines
Hosting two audio network boards the module offers 2 x 64 channels of RAVENNA. It can be connected to two different RAVENNA environments with 64 channels each and offers seamless redundancy switching between the networks.

Sample Rate Conversion
Individual HD SRC for bi-directional sample rate conversion is on board as a standard.
The two audio network boards can be operated at different sample rates.
Dual network modules ensure a seamless connection across clock boundaries and different audio protocols on a single module.

Stream Redundancy
There are 2 x 2 independent network interfaces to connect each protocol via a second stream (Port 1 / Port 2).

The amount of audio channels per protocol is reduced at higher sample rates - 32 channels @ 2 FS or 16 channels @ 4 FS (SoundGrid supports 1 FS and 2 FS only).

RAVENNA is an open audio networking technology developed initially by ALC NetworX.
DirectOut's own RAVENNA implementation relies on more than ten years of development.

As a successful participant of the JT-NM Tested program RAV.IO is listed in the JT-NM Tested Catalog as a module aligning with the SMPTE 2110 standards.

FAQ

What is the difference between single network and dual network A Slot modules?

Single network A Slot modules provide one audio network interface, while dual network modules combine two networking technologies in one card, such as Dante-to-Milan or Dante-to-RAVENNA. Dual network modules are ideal for bridging different audio ecosystems and supporting hybrid workflows.

Which DIRECTOUT devices support A Slot modules?

A Slot modules are supported across several DIRECTOUT smart audio platforms, including PRODIGY.MP, PRODIGY.MX, PRODIGY.MC, and MAVEN.A. The number of available A Slots varies by hardware model.

What is the purpose of SRC in DIRECTOUT module names?

SRC stands for Sample Rate Conversion. Modules with SRC functionality include integrated high-definition sample rate conversion, enabling stable interoperability between devices running on different clock domains or sample rates.

What is the maximum channel count for A Slot modules?

Depending on the module type, A Slot modules can support up to 256 audio channels. Certain high-capacity modules, such as MADI4.IO and RAVENNA modules with optional licensing, offer expanded channel capabilities.

Which audio networking protocols are supported by DIRECTOUT A Slot modules?

DIRECTOUT A Slot modules support major professional audio networking standards including Dante, RAVENNA, AES67, ST 2110, Milan/AVB, and SoundGrid. This flexibility enables seamless integration into modern IP-based audio infrastructures.
