1. . Safety precautions
This device is intended to be used in a professional
environment with restricted access only.
1.3. Foreword
Thank you for purchasing one of the most innovative digital audio converters on
the market. The multiverter was designed with true vendor independence and
interoperability in mind, with the idea to make all your gear interact seamlessly.
Please don't hesitate to tell us your feedback, thoughts and ideas, we try hard to
make the multiverter your most valuable tool!

. INTRODUCTION
.1. Front view
. . Rear view
MVR mkII
.3. Overview
The multiverter is a unique device which allows you to convert digital audio data in
any direction between the most popular formats. Built in are AES3, ADAT, SPDIF,
MADI SFP (optical), MADI coaxial, MADI-TP, AES50, Dante and AES67. Other
formats or additional ports can be added by connecting external breakout boxes.
All inputs can be routed channel-wise to all of the outputs, with an arbitrary
number of splits and merges supported at the same time.
Channel-wise routing between dierent interfaces is supported via the remote
control via integrated web server over Ethernet or USB, or via command line.
The routing matrix supports 704x704 channels (11x11 interfaces with 6 ch each) at
single speed modes, 352x352 channels at double-speed and 176x176 channels at
quad-speed modes.
Using the optional SRC-6 Samplerate Converter Module, highest quality sample
rate conversion on 128 unidirectional or 6 x6 bi-directional channels is
supported.
The multiverter is also able to remote-control Behringer and MIDAS stageboxes
over AES50, which makes it possible to use these as remote analog front-end
without the need for an additional mixing console.
Troubleshooting is made simple by an integrated headphones amplifier and a test
tone generator. Three power inlets allow operation from either AC or DC (battery
pack) with full redundancy.
.4. User interface
The device has been designed for fast and simple operation, with a no-frills
everything-at-a glance concept. The unit can be operated either
directly on the front panel ◆for routing in 6 ch blocks
via the integrated web server ◆for channel-wise routing (over Ethernet or USB)
via command line◆ (telnet or USB-serial terminal)
via MIDI ◆(Preset recall only)
In this manual, the required steps for each operation mode are indicated by
Front panel, ◆ Web ◆and Command line ◆headers.
All operation modes can be used simultaneously, and any status change is
immediately reflected on all interfaces. For example, it's possible to make some
routing connections on the front panel, and later change them via the web
interface or the command line.

User's Manual
◆Front panel
Most settings are directly accessible without the need to walk through lengthy
menus:
To change a setting, first push the appropriate rectangular button (e.g. Set ).
This enters “Menu” mode, indicated by a yellow blinking cursor.
Move the cursor by turning the encoder (rotary knob) left or right to move it to
the desired setting.
When the cursor is at the beginning or end of the column or line, continue
turning to make it wrap around.
Push the encoder knob (or push the appropriate menu button again) to confirm
your changes. To return to the previous state without making any changes, push
the ⮌ Back button.
When the device is normal operation (i.e. not within a menu), turning the encoder
knob changes “Volume” or “Channel” of the monitor headphones, while pushing
the encoder toggles between “Volume” and “Channel” mode.
Note: Channel-wise routing is not available from the front panel due to the lack of
controls.
◆Web
The multiverter can be remotely operated from any browser. This is completely
self-contained, platform independent and does not need any additional software.
Web control is the recommended method because it oers
channel-wise routing and provides the most convenient
graphical interface.
You can run up to four sessions at the same time (i.e. have the page open on
four dierent computers). Any change or status update will propagate within a
few seconds to all connected devices.
Web control has been carefully designed to transfer data only when a change
occurred (and even then only a few bytes) so it generates virtually no additional
load on the Dante network.
There are two methods for accessing the web server:
8
MVR mkII
◆Web via Dante network
This uses the web server running on the built-in Dante module, and can be
accessed on the same IP address as the Dante module1 or its host name.
You can find both out using the Dante controller, see below.
To access the multiverter using its host name, go to
http://MVR-xxxxxx.local
e.g. http://MVR-0b21f9a.local
To access the multiverter using its IP address, go to
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
e.g. http://192.168.0.204
1 Remote control can also be configured run on a dierent network than audio.

◆Web control via USB
This works ONLY with Chrome, Edge and Opera.
Firefox, Safari and others do not support the required
"Web Serial API".
Connect the multiverter's USB port to your PC.
Go to
http://appsys.ch/webremote/MVR-mkII/6.0
Note: your firmware version might be dierent than 6.0 so make sure you're
using the right link.
