TC Electronic D22 Digital Broadcast Delay

TC Electronic D22 Digital Broadcast Delay

Precision Digital Broadcast Delay with Seamless Delay Update

Precision. Control. Reliability.
D22 is all about precise and reliable delay, as broadcasted audio needs to be 100% aligned and 'in-sync'. Therefore, you may sometimes have to insert just a slight delay. It may seem like an insignificant adjustment, but in reality, it makes all the difference!

• Make It Fit - High-resolution Delay for Broadcast Master Control and Linking
• Take Total Control - Nudge and Tap Keys for Easy Front-panel Adjustments
• Flexible Format Handling - Delays Linear Audio as well as Dolby E or AC3 Streams

Unique Interface
You can display the delay resolution in frames, sub-frames, milliseconds and sub-milliseconds(0.1 ms increments).
The tapped delay time can be previewed before insertion, or you can choose to apply delay time immediately.
You also get a 'Set and Forget' lock function if you use D22 in a 'fixed' environment.(0.1 ms increments).

Remote Control
You can remote control D22 via an RS-485 connector which allows you to change the delay time, or even the full setup, from a distance. GPI (General Purpose Impulse) even gives you to external control of Tap Tempo as well as the Master Fader output.

Ultimate Hardware
Industry-leading 24-bit AES/EBU, S/PDIF and AD/DA converters are just part of the story.
Even when bypassing D22, true 24-bit resolution is maintained, leaving the digital signal untouched.
When used in Analog setups, D22 features hardwired bypass for an uninterrupted signal flow in case of loss of power.
