Description

You can hear the difference with the Lucid GENx192 Ultra Low Jitter Studio Master Clock. Let's face it, all jitter is measurable - and Lucid Audio has taken the measurements. The GENx192 is quite simply the most advanced affordable Master Clock ever made. Lucid uses extremely low jitter crystal oscillators internally, and a pair of VCOs (voltage controlled oscillators) to convert any input frequency to a rock-solid output. Any frequency input, that is, between 28kHz and 216kHz.

A synthesized clock is not better-Lucid relies on JIF (Jitter Input Filtering) on the input signal to remove jitter before sending it to the outputs. This is state-of-the art technology that works. The signal comes in as a jittery clock and is converted to a DC control voltage that drives the oscillators. The GENx192 simply outputs a clean, jitter-free signal.

Flexible format conversion-External AES and Word clock inputs are simultaneously converted to AES, Word clock and S/PDIF outputs. It's that simple. Plus, the GENx192 can is capable of generating two independent multiples of the base frequency. For example, if you input 96kHz the GENx192 Master Clock can simultaneously output 48kHz and 192kHz.

Room to grow-The GENx192 Master Clock can synchronize up to 14 external devices at one time.

Dropouts, not a problem-If the input signal goes away, the GENx192 will simply switch to its internal oscillator and generate a rock solid clock. Dropouts are not a problem for the GENx192, period.

Termination issues are not an issue with TS-75-Elaborate audio clock chains are often improperly terminated. The GENx192 features TS-75, 75-Ohm input/output termination and tri-state LEDs that indicate proper or improper termination on all Word clock connections. Troubleshooting is a breeze. Proper termination is easily achieved.

The world's easiest interface-Lucid keeps it simple. No menus, no scrolling, just a simple user interface. You'll be sync'd and ready to go in no time.
