Professional FM Stereo Conversion

The Original Veronica® Stereo Coder seamlessly converts any mono (MPX) FM transmitter into a high-fidelity stereo broadcast system. Utilizing a 100% analog, quartz-controlled architecture, this coder processes discrete Left and Right audio channels into a unified Multiplex (MPX) signal. It is engineered for universal compatibility, integrating perfectly with any transmitter that maintains a flat amplitude and phase response up to 53 KHz.

By generating a rock-solid 19KHz pilot tone, the circuit ensures perfect synchronization with any standard FM stereo tuner. As one of the few professional-grade, hardware-based analog coders remaining on the global market, it delivers a transparent, 'warm' audio signature and superior reliability in high-RF environments—performance that modern digital DSP alternatives often fail to replicate.

Two Decades of Proven Field Reliability

With a production heritage spanning over 20 years, the Original Veronica® Stereo Coder remains a global industry standard for analog stability. This circuit is engineered for extreme resilience, maintaining peak performance even when subjected to the high-energy RF fields found within transmitter enclosures.

The robust architecture allows for successful integration with minimal additional shielding, operating without instability or induced noise. Our performance claims are not based on lab prototypes, but are field-proven by more than 4,000 units sold to broadcasters worldwide over the last 15 years—making it one of the most reliable and trusted stereo encoders on the market today.

Integrated System Design & RF Shielding

The latest iteration of the Veronica® Stereo Coder is manufactured on a high-grade, double-sided PCB featuring a maximized ground plane. This design provides an integrated electromagnetic screen, ensuring rock-solid stability and noise-free performance even in the most demanding high-RF environments.

To streamline studio-to-transmitter integration, we have incorporated a 16-way IDE interconnection system. This interface manages DC power, discrete Left/Right audio inputs, Multiplex (MPX) output, and the 19KHz pilot signal. This standardized pinout allows for a direct, "plug-and-play" connection to our Audio Limiter modules, enabling broadcasters to build a complete, professional air-chain using a single 16-way IDE ribbon cable.

High-Fidelity FM Stereo Accessibility

Professional-grade FM stereo is now accessible for any mono transmitter without the need for expensive external processors. The Original Veronica® Stereo Coder Kit includes a high-spec PCB, all precision components, and high-quality phono (RCA) input/output sockets for immediate integration with your audio source and transmitter air-chain.

Designed by engineers for field reliability, this module is strictly "plug-and-play." The quartz-controlled architecture ensures that no specialized test equipment, such as oscilloscopes or frequency counters, is required for the initial setup—delivering a broadcast-ready stereo image right out of the box.

Who Can Benefit from the Veronica® Stereo Coder?

User Category Primary Benefit & Application
Professional FM Broadcasters Existing mono stations looking to upgrade to high-fidelity stereo with a quartz-stable 19KHz pilot tone and 35dB of separation.
Analog Audio Purists Engineers who prefer 100% hardware-based encoding over digital DSP to avoid aliasing artifacts and maintain a "warm," transparent sound.
Community & Regional Stations Small-to-medium broadcasters needing a low-cost, reliable "set-and-forget" solution that works in high-RF environments without noise.
LPFM & Kit Builders DIY enthusiasts seeking a proven, crystal-controlled coder that requires no complex test equipment for initial setup.
Third-Party Transmitter Users Operators using non-Aareff transmitters that accept a standard MPX input and require a high-quality external stereo generator.
