The nexStage line provides essential tools for any full service facility. Functionality ranges from “format conversion” or file format transcoding to authoring and premastering. Transcoding from DSD to linear PCM maintains the high level of fidelity captured in the DSD master while allowing you to process and distribute in the PCM space.
Now that DSD recorders are affordable, engineers who appreciate the sound of quality analog gear can finally adopt a hybrid production method that incorporates the best of their analog signal blocks with DSD digital recording and delivery. Wrapping DSD around a traditional analog workflow preserves the subjective “analog sound” while also future –proofing the assets in the digital domain.
