DANTE to anything. Anything to DANTE.

The FLX-DANTE is a compact DANTE-to-anything converter. It features a 64x64ch built in Dante Port, which can be converted to any protocol installed into the AUX slot. For 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 MVR-64 or another Flexiverter.

Overview

Features

Two DANTE ports on Ethercon connectors
AUX port accepting any of the AUX Cards as conversion source/destination
Supports sample rates from 44.1 to 192kHz
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
Triple-redundant power supply

Additional features when connected to the MVR-64

True channel-wise routing of all available channels (built-in plus AUX card)
Sample-rate conversion using the SRC-64

Firmware

Do I need the _256 or _484 version?

If your device has an USB-C port, or if the last three digits of the serial number are "100" or higher, you need _484, otherwise choose _256.
Flashing the wrong version does not destroy anything but your device doesn't boot. Just re-flash the correct version and it should be running again.

The updater fails - it cannot find a COM port (Windows 11)

Some Windows 11 installations do not automatically/correctly install the required FTDI drivers. Please download and install the FTDI driver package and try again.
