TEAC Releases Updated CG-10M-X Master Clock Generator

TEAC Corporation of Japan announced the release of the CG-10M-X, a Reference Series Master Clock Generator intended primarily to expand its Reference 500 Series components. A 10MHz master clock generator with a TEAC Reference OCXO (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator), the CG-10M-X is equipped with a thermostatic chamber to ensure high oscillation stability, output buffer amplifier circuit, and improved power supply circuit among other refinements.

MUTEC GmbH, the Berlin-based manufacturer of professional audio technology for studio and high-end applications, announced the launch of the MC1.2+ bi-directional real‑time converter and signal transfer between computers and/or digital audio hardware. The MC1.2+ improves the sound quality performance via USB and features multiple interface ports including AES/EBU and S/P‑DIF. It supports USB‑power allowing mobile operation, mains voltage (internal), and DC via external PSU.

Berlin-based manufacturer of audio equipment for studio professionals and high end enthusiasts, MUTEC GmbH announced the release of the REF10 NANO, a new focused version of an audiophile 10MHz reference master clock with the superior quality one should expect from a clocking specialist. The new REF10 NANO Reference Master Clock is based on the already well-established REF10, but transfers its technology into a new, significantly lower price range.

Studio Technologies, a manufacturer of high-quality professional audio and broadcast solutions headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, introduced two Dante Leader Clocks for supporting the timing needs of Dante-compliant devices, including a model with GNSS Synchronization. The company also continues to expand its range of Dante-based intercom solutions with the introduction of a new Model 5422A Dante Audio Engine, featuring auto mix and expanded network connectivity.

Microchip Technology announced the industry’s smallest MEMS clock generator, ideal for the development of connected devices and mobile/portable applications. This new device can replace up to three crystals and oscillators on a board, reducing timing component board space by up to 80 percent. The DSC613 clock family eliminates the need for an external crystal by integrating a low-power and high-stability Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) resonator.

MUTEC from Berlin has started shipping its new MC-3+ Smart Clock USB. The MC-3+USB uniquely combines an audiophile USB interface with an audio re-clocker designed for the demands of high-end consumer audio. The MC-3+USB enables computer audio via USB, optimizes jitter-affected digital sources, improves any D/A converter, serves as a digital audio switching matrix, format converter, master clock and exports and converts native DSD signals from the computer.
