Melody1200 Variants of Hardware
Overview Variants Tech. Description Expansions

First and only

MPEG Layer-3 Soundboard

for Amiga!!!


Melody 1200 pro:

Again better than Melody 1200 base because....
High Quality Playback of MPEG2.5-Sound (Layer 2+3) via specialized DSP forcing really low load at the main CPU.

Melody 1200 PRO

MPEG Audio Layer 2+3

Melody 1200 Plus

Record and Playback, 20bits and MP2

 

Melody 1200 plus:

Even better than Melody 1200 base....
Supports MPEG1-Layer 1+2 using a very big FIFO and help for synchronising MPEG Videoplayers again without forcing measurable load at the main CPU (DSP is allready known from Melody-Z2).


    Hardware:
  • useage of high performance 20 bits HIFI CODEC
  • high samplerates of 44.1kHz und 48kHz
  • does not disable the use of modern CPUs
  • may get used together with RS232/V24 board for the same connector (Hypercom needs small modification while our board doesn't for sure)
  • Playback and Recording at the same time (Full-Duplex)
  • Usefull for A1200 and -Tower
  • three inputs offering variable gain, one of them is located internal and intended for connecting a CD-Reader
  • Pass-Thru und Monitoring
  • very small outlines caused by the use of modern technologie
  • modular, extendable concepts
  • Multilayer PC (Printed Cirucuit Board) using a number of different planes

Melody 1200 Base

Record and Playback, 20bits (SoftMPEG)
