I am just in the process of commissioning my first studio project incorporating the Teranex 2D ( Version 1.0 Software ) .
The unit seems to be very good - minor quibbles would be
Audio reference levels need to be adjustable for EBU reference levels of 0dbU analogue audio input equals -18dBfs digital encoding level for embedded output.
At present 0dBu analogue audio ( Balanced input ) encodes to -24dBfs, I am guessing this is American reference levels of +4dBu = -20dBfs
Having test audio tone embedded into one of the Test pattern outputs would be very useful at -20 dBfs or -18 dBfs which could be used to calibrate analogue audio output de-embedders. Ideally the left channel would mute for 1/2 a second every ten seconds to give an ident.
At present the analogue audio gain setup ( +4dBu = -20dBfs ) makes it a bit of a pain to use here in Europe where audio levels are 6dB different each way requiring external equipment to 'fix' this and interface correctly with everything else
