Ferrofish A32pro Dante 32x32 AD/DA Converter and Format Router

The Ultimate Networked Studio Flagship

The Ferrofish A32pro Dante is the definitive choice for high-density audio environments requiring absolute flexibility and reliability. Functioning as both a premier 32x32 AD/DA converter and a comprehensive format router, this 1RU powerhouse processes up to 386 total channels simultaneously. Whether you are a broadcast professional, a mixing engineer at a major facility, or a live sound technician, the A32pro Dante provides a seamless bridge between high-end analogue gear and modern AoIP networks.

Next-Generation 32-Bit ESS Precision
Upgraded from previous generations, the A32pro series now features the latest 32-bit ESS Technology converters. These high-end chips, paired with a temperature-compensated clock and a jitter-reduction PLL, deliver an "honest" and relaxed sound profile that avoids the aggressive "squeeze" found in lesser converters. With support for sample rates up to 192kHz and studio-level headroom of +20dBu, your audio remains open, detailed, and transparent across the entire frequency range.

A New Standard in Visual Workflow
Monitoring 64 channels has never been more intuitive thanks to four high-resolution multitouch TFT screens. This capacitive user interface allows you to view metering for every analogue I/O channel simultaneously and navigate the internal routing matrix with a simple touch. This immediate visual feedback eliminates the need for complex sub-menus or consulting a manual during high-pressure sessions, allowing you to focus entirely on the sound.

Failsafe Redundancy for Mission-Critical Pro Audio
Reliability is the core pillar of the A32pro Dante design, featuring redundancy at every level. Both the Dante network ports and MADI SFP slots are configured for automatic, inaudible failover in the event of signal loss. Furthermore, the unit supports dual redundant power supplies with secure screw-lock connectors, ensuring that your production stays online even if a power circuit or cable fails.
