Entrée (pronounced [ɑ̃.tʁe], french for input) is a Component to RGB colorspace converter and Luma Processor with the following features:

Decodes SD/HD Component (YPbPr) to 1V RGBY outputs.
Y signal is normalized to the processor input which features an attenuverter (contrast) and offset (brightness), plugging a jack in the processor input will break the normalization to allow the processing of another signal.
Y pass-through RCA at the rear of the module to sync the sync generator/encoder to the external video signal.
It is an update of VU003B with a couple improvements:

Low noise switching power supply
Active attenuverter in the processor part
75R output impedance on the 1V output jacks to increase the bandwidth, resulting in a sharper picture in HD formats.
Some of those improvements can be applied to VU003B (both DIY and production versions), the modifications are detailed in this document VU003B_Modif.pdf
Get in touch by email if you’d like to have your VU003B modified.

The module is powered through standard Eurorack connector or DC barrel.
