process. Unlike bit mapping and noise shaping sys-

tems, it doesn't attempt to lower the noise level at the

'most audible frequencies' at the expense of transparent

operation. Instead, the noise ﬂoor is left at the theoretical

16-bit level – but you can hear clear, undistorted detail as

low as 30 dB into the noise.

The UV22 process has 24-bit data handling capability

and can encode information from beyond the 20-bit level

into standard 16-bit formats.

UV22 Encoding Two levels of encoding may be selected: low (2-bit pro-

cessing) and normal (3-bit).

'Over' Indication May be set to register 1, 2, 3 or 4 'overs'

'Nova' Setting Removes 'overs' automatically by dropping signal level by

one LSB.

Many of the country's leading mastering engineers have

endorsed UV-22 , and the UV-1000 is a standard feature in a

large number of the world's top mastering facilities. Now you

can put UV22 to work for you.

Placed last of all in the mastering chain, the Apogee UV-

1000 Super CD Mastering System is more than a UV22

encoder – if that wasn't enough. It is an exceptionally useful

package that combines the proprietary UV22 process with

comprehensive digital interfaces, direct monitoring outputs,

headroom setting facilities, DC offset removal and over con-

trol, plus digital switching and format conversion.

The 3U processor features individual illuminated function

buttons laid out for easy access, particularly in mastering

applications. The combination of the easy to use control sur-

face, exceptional build quality and the wealth of input, output

and monitoring interfaces makes the UV-1000 Super CD

Mastering System ideal not only for CD premastering, but

also for digital transfer bays and production facilities.
