DiGiCo MQ-Rack

DiGiCo MQ-Rack

The MQ-Rack provides all of the power of our larger racks, but in a more compact unit. The compact 6U rack sports 48 mic inputs and up to 24 line outputs. Clever audio design allows the last 4 outputs to be switched between line outputs and stereo AES/EBU outputs, adding up to a maximum of 8 AES/EBU output channels.

Dual MADI ports, available on BNC connections, either allow rack sharing at 48kHz between any two SD Range or Quantum consoles or provide digital splits for recording. When combined, these ports create a single high definition 96kHz MADI connection with absolutely no reduction in I/O.

To ensure ultimate reliability the MQ-Rack is equipped with dual redundant power supplies as standard.

• 6U MADI connected high performance rack
• 48 Mic In
• Up to 24 Line Out (switchable to 20 line out plus 4 stereo AES/EBU Out)
• Redundant power supplies as standard

48 x XLR Mic Inputs
20 x XLR Line Outputs
4 x XLR Switchable AES/Line Outputs
1 x TFT LCD Menu Screen
4 x Menu Buttons
1 x MADI Main I/O BNC
1 x MADI Aux I/O BNC
2 x Redundant PSUs
1 x USB 2.0 Type B port

The DiGico MQ-Rack shall have 48 inputs and 20 line outputs. It shall have an additional 4 outputs shall be configurable as either analogue line outputs or AES digtal outputs. The rear panel shall have 2 sets of BNC MADI I/O ports. At 48kHz, this shall allow sharing of the rack between any two DiGiCo consoles or digital splits for recording. At 96kHz, this shall allow all inputs and outputs to be accessed by the console with the use of both MADI ports. There shall also be a USB Type B port, and two redundant PSUs. The MQ-Rack shall have a TFT LCD menu screen on the rear. When the rack is receiving a valid sync source, the screen shall flash between white and green so that it can be seen from a distance that the rack is syncing correctly. The screen shall be locked until the left and right buttons are both pressed and held for 2 seconds. The left and right buttons shall allow the user to scroll through the different menu items. There shall be a set of menu items that display system information, showing the PSU info and rack firmwares. There shall also be menu items to switch the end 4 outputs between analogue and AES, select the sync source and if the sync source is set to internal, the internal sample rate of the rack, and defaulting the rack. There shall also be a menu option that allows an oscillator signal to be sent to all rack outputs. The signal level shall be chosen between -96dB and 0dB and the signal frequency shall be chosen between 20Hz and 22kHz.
