MADI to anything. Anything to MADI.
Including Sample Rate Conversion!

Available to pre-order. Expected Q2 2026.

Compact digital audio format converter

Convert between MADI and another format of your choosing (via an optional AUX card - sold separately)

Can also be used with a second Flexiverter for additional format conversion options, or as an extension to the Appsys Multiverter

Note: This page is for the base FLX-MADI/SRC-SFP Flexiverter unit only.

AUX cards are sold separately.


 

Description

SERIES

Multi-format. Highly Affordable. Most flexible.

 

Ultra-compact converters
+ Switchable format boards

The Appsys ProAudio Flexiverter is an ultra-compact box for converting between any of the most common digital audio formats (Standalone), or for adding additional I/O to the Appsys Multiverter (Extension).

Two Flexiverters can also be used together (Dual Mode), allowing users to create a custom device to perfectly suit their digital format conversion needs.

Each Flexiverter comes with a main format as standard, with a second slot for adding an additional interface via a range of switchable AUX boards, for converting between two different formats, or for expanding the I/O of the main format.

The Appsys Flexiverter range opens up a world of possibilities for conversion between the most common formats, as well as unique pairings and combinations (e. g. AES50 <> Dante, Dante <> Dante SRC, Dante <> AVB).

For other base unit options, see the full range of Appsys Flexiverters here.

 

 

Appsys Flexiverter (FLX-MADI/SRC-SFP)

The FLX-MADI/SRC-SFP is a compact MADI-to-anything converter with built-in 64 x 64ch Sample Rate Converter (SRC). 

It can convert 64 x 64ch (even at 96k) of MADI to to any protocol installed into the secondary AUX slot. 

For or larger systems, the built-in channels - plus everything which the AUX card provides - are also available on the FlexLink port, making it possible to use it as extension to the Appsys ProAudio Multiverter MVR-mkII or another Flexiverter.

 

Features

  • Two MADI SFP ports, accepting ANY brand of SFP

  • Built-in wordclock IN/OUT

  • AUX port accepting any of the AUX Cards as conversion source/destination

  • When combined with AUX-MADI-COAX-DUAL or AUX-MADI-SFP-DUAL, it acts as MADI/MADI bridge with full network and clock domain separation, for up to 64x64ch at 96kHz. Other targets (e.g. DANTE) can be realized with the appropriate AUX card

  • 64x64ch bi-directional Sample Rate Converter with top-notch specifications (>120dB THD+N, >134dB DNR), can be bypassed when desired

  • Supports sample rates from 44.1 to 192kHz on either side

  • FlexLink port for lowest latency, bi-directional transfer of 192 channels audio, clock and power

  • Remote control via USB: web remote (no software required), or UART command line

  • Dual/Redundant power supplies


Additional features when connected to an Appsys Multiverter:

  •  True channel-wise routing of all available channels (built-in plus AUX card)
  •  Sample-rate conversion using the SRC-64
  •  Web- or telnet based Remote Control
  •  Triple-redundant power supply (2 x DC; 1 x via FlexLink)

 

Combinations

Combine the FLX-MADI/SRC-SFP with any of the following formats into one 9.5 inch Flexiverter box:

  • Dante (with or without SRC)

  • AVB

  • ADAT

  • MADI (Optical, Coaxial, Twisted Pair)

  • AES-3 (with or without SRC)

  • AES50

  • AES67

  • WordClock

  • TDM

  • SDI 12G

  • HDMI

  • Analogue Outputs

  • Ravenna

How it works

The Appsys Flexiverter can be used in one of 3 ways: Standalone, Dual Mode, or as a Multiverter Extension.

1

Standalone
A single Flexiverter with optional Aux card installed
Insert and switch any AUX board in every main FLX unit and create the converter of your choice.
Stand Alone Setup

2

Dual Mode: Two Flexiverters
A 1-to-1 converter with extra channels

Convert up to 4 formats with one pairing (Signal splitting to AUX or FlexLink).

Dual Setup

3

Multiverter Extension

Connect one flexiverter via FlexLink to the multiverter MVR-64 to add an additional format conversion, SRC, or more channels.

Multiverter Setup

 

THE BACK PANEL: MOST FLEXIBLE

The main format I/O section on every FLX unit is different, the rest of the back panel is identical.

 

The FlexLink connection

The FlexLink connection is designed to connect two Flexiverters, or one Flexiverter with the Multiverter. It provides:

  • 192 x 192 channels bi-directional transmission of 24-bit uncompressed audio (fully transparent to AES3 compatible metadata bits)
  • Super-low link latency of 4 samples (ca. 83μs)
  • Dedicated, high-quality reference clock signal with automatic configuration
  • Power supply for connected devices (to reduce cabling), alternatively serves as redundancy scheme when both devices are powered: in case of power failure, both devices keep working from the remaining power supply.
  • Uses standard HDMI cables (with locking screws), to provide easy field replacement in case of defects.
Dual Setup

Rackmounts

The following rackmount kits are available as optional extras:


RM-FLX1
Rackmount kit for mounting a single FLX device in 1U

RM-FLX2
Rackmount kit for mounting two FLX devices in 1U
