The Wohler MADI-8 audio guard enables broadcasters to take value of MADI encouragement for larger figures of channels per line and the protocol's use of coaxial and visual essential element for transmitting audio signals over long distances of up to 3000m. Thus, broadcasters using Wohler's MADI-8 can facilitate their workflow by shortening the amount of complicated line typically related with normal analog or AES audio distribution.
