Powered by MUTEC's proprietary 1G-Clock technology utilizing high-speed Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS), the MC3+ aggressively re-clocks incoming digital streams to eliminate jitter, digital clicks, and pops while enhancing overall soundstage width, clarity, and harmonic detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFunctioning both as a master clock generator and a clock distributor, the unit provides six individually buffered Word Clock outputs capable of generating rates up to 768.0 kHz and Super Clock rates up to 12.288 MHz. It supports lock capability to external 10 MHz reference signals (atomic clocks or GPS receivers) and features fail-safe hold-over modes to ensure continuous synchronization during live sound and broadcast operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES \u0026amp; PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGIES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProprietary 1G-Clock Technology:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-speed DDS frequency synthesis eliminates typical DDS-induced jitter artifacts for ultra-low phase noise and transparent signal regeneration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Resolution Audio Re-Clocking:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aggressively re-clocks incoming digital audio streams to suppress jitter and improve spatial imaging and micro-detail retrieval in D\/A conversion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAtomic \u0026amp; GPS Clock Locking:\u003c\/strong\u003e BNC input locks to external 10 MHz reference signals from atomic clocks or GPS receivers to maximize clock accuracy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFail-Safe Operation \u0026amp; Hold-Over Mode:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seamlessly maintains stable clock output during signal loss or re-synchronization, preventing audio dropouts in live and mobile recording setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSix Buffered Word Clock Outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Generates Word Clock frequencies up to 768.0 kHz and Super Clocks up to 12.288 MHz, individually adjustable in pairs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBi-Directional Format Conversion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Converts between AES3, S\/P-DIF (Coaxial and Optical), AES11, and Word Clock formats simultaneously.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch1\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDigital Audio Master Clock, Re-Clocker \u0026amp; Clock Distributor\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDigital Audio Inputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1x XLR (AES3\/11, 110 Ω, Transformer Balanced)\u003cbr\u003e1x RCA Coaxial (S\/P-DIF, 75 Ω Unbalanced)\u003cbr\u003e1x Optical Toslink (S\/P-DIF, EIAJ RC-5720)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eClock \/ Reference Input\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1x BNC (Word Clock \u0026amp; 10 MHz Reference, 75 Ω Switchable Termination)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDigital Audio Outputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1x XLR (AES3\/11, Transformer Balanced)\u003cbr\u003e1x RCA Coaxial (S\/P-DIF, Buffered)\u003cbr\u003e1x Optical Toslink (S\/P-DIF)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eClock Outputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e6x BNC Word Clock Outputs (Unbalanced, Individually Buffered, Adjustable Pairs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWord Clock Frequencies\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e32.0 kHz to 768.0 kHz (Includes Super Clock x256: 11.2896 MHz \u0026amp; 12.2880 MHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eInternal Clock Accuracy\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt; 0.1 ppm (Digitally Compensated Basis Clock, AES11 Grade 1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePower Supply \u0026amp; Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eInternal Universal Switching Power Supply (90V – 260V AC, 47–440 Hz) \/ Max 10W\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eForm Factor \u0026amp; Housing\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e9.5\" Rack-Space Housing (1mm Powder-Coated Steel Sheet with Anodized Aluminum Front)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDimensions (W x H x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e196 x 42 x 156 mm (Cover) \/ 198 x 44 x 4 mm (Front Panel)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eApprox. 1.26 kg (1260 g)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"MUTEC","offers":[{"title":"Silver","offer_id":52739910041866,"sku":"MUTEC-8881","price":890.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":52739910074634,"sku":"MUTEC-8882","price":890.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/3283\/6618\/files\/mutec-mc3-master-clock-and-48886-1-p.jpg?v=1773933691","url":"https:\/\/audioemotion.co.uk\/products\/mutec-mc3-plus","provider":"Audio Emotion Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
