CONVERT-2
| 1
OVERVIEW
D/A Conversion has been an integral part of the Dangerous Music legacy since 2002, when the Dangerous Monitor® created a new reference
for mastering engineers. The legacy continued with the DAC-ST, D-Box, and Source. The CONVERT series represents a new generation of
D/A conversion that maintains all the qualities that have made Dangerous converters the choice of tracking, mixing and mastering engineers
worldwide, while incorporating the latest advancements in audio electronics technology to once again raise the bar. (Pronounced \kän-ˌvˌrt\ or
KHAN-vert as in a person who has changed to a different religion, belief, etc...)
Inside the box you’ll find the CONVERT-2, this manual and a standard 3 Pin IEC power cable (don’t let your guitar player steal this for his
Marshall™ head.)
Warning: Heat is enemy #1 for electronic equipment. Converters and interfaces run hot. Let ‘em breathe. Leave a rack
space above and below your Convert to insure a long and happy life.
Note: We recommend reading the entire manual (it’s short- and so is life).
