AVID 9900-71254-00 MTRX Dual SDI/HD/3G Emb/Deembed. Card

Dual SDI I/O Card for Pro Tools MTRX with Embedded Audio Support
The AVID 9900-71254-00 MTRX Dual SDI/HD/3G Embed/De-Embed Card with Sample Rate Conversion (SRC) brings SDI audio integration directly into the Pro Tools | MTRX modular interface. This expansion card enables audio professionals to embed and extract up to 16 channels of audio from two independent SDI video streams, supporting standard SD, HD, and 3G formats. It’s designed for facilities working with video and audio simultaneously, such as broadcast, post-production, and live event environments that rely on precision SDI workflows.

Extract and Embed Audio on Dual SDI Streams
With support for two SDI channels, this module gives you the flexibility to de-embed incoming SDI video streams and route up to 16 channels of audio directly into the Pro Tools MTRX system. Conversely, it allows you to embed MTRX audio into outgoing SDI feeds—perfect for delivering finalized content for broadcast or multi-format distribution. This dual-path functionality simplifies routing and reduces the need for external hardware.

Compatible with SD, HD, and 3G-SDI Video Formats
This card supports all standard video rates including SD (270 Mbps), HD (1.5 Gbps), and 3G-SDI (3.0 Gbps), ensuring compatibility with a wide range of professional video equipment. Whether you're interfacing with routers, recorders, monitors, or switchers, the module integrates smoothly into existing SDI signal chains. It’s particularly useful in hybrid audio-video facilities where audio routing precision must align with frame-accurate video delivery.

Includes Sample Rate Conversion for Flexible Integration
One of the standout features of this module is built-in sample rate conversion (SRC) on de-embedded inputs. This allows incoming audio signals to be automatically adapted to the MTRX system’s internal clock settings. As a result, you can sync SDI sources with mismatched sample rates without introducing clicks, pops, or timing issues—ensuring smooth, stable operation in real-time environments.

Streamline AV Workflows in Broadcast and Post-Production
For engineers working in post facilities, live production trucks, or AV integration setups, this card simplifies the task of synchronizing audio and video workflows within the MTRX system. It reduces the complexity of SDI signal management by allowing direct I/O with video systems while maintaining full audio processing and routing flexibility through Pro Tools and DADman.

Modular Design for MTRX System Integration
This SDI embed/de-embed card is designed to fit one of the eight modular expansion slots on the MTRX rear panel. As with all MTRX cards, it integrates seamlessly with the platform’s flexible routing matrix, allowing users to patch SDI audio to and from other I/O formats such as Dante, AES, MADI, and analog. It’s an essential tool for any facility that requires SDI audio capabilities within the MTRX environment.
