I am selling my Emagic Unitor8 MkII – communications center for professional audio studios.

 

 

DESCRIPTION:
The Unitor8 MkII is the obvious choice to integrate tape and video machines, timecode DATs, and mixer automation with a sizeable MIDI rig. Active MIDI Transmission (AMT) technology provides exact timing at all MIDI ports. An external click input even makes it possible to drive Logic Audio from a percussive audio signal for example, to control the tempo of the sequencer with a previously recorded rhythm track.

An interface and synchronizer but the Unitor8 MkII is also a versatile MIDI patch-bay; step between programmable patches with a footswitch or select from up to 32 patches via MIDI program change commands. In the unlikely event of notes sticking while in patch mode, the panic button quickly fixes any problem. The Unitor8 MkII also features an updateable operating system.
 
Using VITC is desirable when the sequencer needs to be synchronized to video with frame accuracy; the Unitor8 MkII provides this frame accurate synchronization at all times, even during fast-forward and rewind. The Unitor8 MkII reads and writes SMPTE timecode as LTC and VITC. The precision sync processor built into the Unitor8 MkII is capable of reading the LTC code from a master tape machine at even 10 times the original tape speed.

Thanks to the video in and output, you can insert a timecode display into the video with variable position and size even in LTC mode. These features plus the advantage of ultra short lock times make Emagic’s Unitor8 MkII highly desirable in all production environments where intuitive workflow is as important as the time you will save.
 
COMPATIBILTY:
The Unitor8 MkII is fully compatible with any standard MIDI software under Mac and Windows. With its full set of connectors such as USB for Mac and Windows, RS232 (Windows) and RS422 (Mac), the Unitor8 MkII quickly fits into any computer environment. Up to eight devices can be stacked and they will function like one big 64×64 MIDI interface (Mac: Emagic software or Unitor8 OMS driver required – not included but see links below) with AMT to ensure razor-sharp timing on every port.

Unitor8 MkII, AMT8 and the Unitor8 can be combined in any combination; this allows, for example, the connection of a Unitor8 without USB to a computer with USB via an AMT8.

Mac compatible: Directly supported via Logic Audio and SoundDiver, OMS, MTP emulation.
