ULTRAMATCH PRO SRC2496 User Manual 1. Introduction 1.2 Before you begin The BEHRINGER ULTRAMATCH PRO is a fully digital signal processor integrating 24-bit A/D and D/A converters. With its wide range of features, it provides a powerful state-of-the-art interface between the physical reality of music and its recording in digital form.
ULTRAMATCH PRO SRC2496 User Manual 2.1.1 Monitor and input sections (4) (5) (7) (9) (11) (13) (15) (12) The EMPH LED shows you whether or not the input signal includes an emphasis marker. “Emphasis” is a high-frequency boost function that (19)during (21)the(23) (25)recording but is undone during playback. (16) is applied digital When the LED lights up, the signal was emphasis-processed during recording.
ULTRAMATCH PRO SRC2496 User Manual (18) The SAMPLE RATE switch selects the sampling rate to which the input signal is to be converted or made available at the outputs. For this purpose, the SRC2496 must be set to internal mode, i.e. it has to function as a master unit (see sections (20) and (21) ). Reducing the digital word length (e.g. from 24 bits to 20 bits) also means a reduction of the resolution.

ULTRAMATCH PRO SRC2496 User Manual 3.2 Sample rate conversion No matter what type of digital audio signal you feed into the ULTRAMATCH PRO, it will convert it to a common standard format. Numerous conversion examples can be found in daily studio practice: • Conversion of 48 kHz DAT recordings to the CD standard of 44.1 kHz • Conversion of older digital recordings from 44.056 kHz to 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 or 96 kHz • Conversion of “foreign” material with 32 kHz to 44.1, 48, 88.
ULTRAMATCH PRO SRC2496 User Manual So much for the theory. In practice, a lit EMPHASIS LED does not necessarily show that the emphasis function has really been applied. In several situations the emphasis bit was set during the mastering and editing process due to defective hardware/software—without any treble boost applied. This error usually remains undetected when the material is transferred, because modern DAT recorders no longer have an emphasis indicator for reasons of rationalization.
ULTRAMATCH PRO SRC2496 User Manual application. Therefore, programmers continue to experiment with the most varied of algorithms, ending up, however, always having to make a compromise between computation efforts and sound quality. By processing data in real time, the processor used in the BEHRINGER ULTRAMATCH PRO can process incredible amounts of data. The noise and interference floor is thus below -117 dBFS, and the distortion values, even with difficult input signals, are below -104 dBFS.
