APOGEE ENSEMBLE THUNDERBOLT 30X34 THUNDERBOLT 2 AUDIO INTERFACE FOR MAC

Πληροφορίες

Το νέο Ensembel είναι το πρώτο interface ήχου με σύνδεση Thunderbold 2. με 1,1ms latency στο Logic Pro X. Διαθέτει 8 υψηλής πιστότητας προενισχυτές μικροφώνου με step gain, 10 εισόδους line, 16 εξόδους line, 2 εξόδους ακουστικών με ανεξάρτητα ρυθμιστικά ελέγχου, δυνατότητα Talkback με ενσωματωμένο μικρόφωνο, 18 ψηφιακές εισόδους/εξόδους ADAT & S/PDIF, Word Clock. Δυο οθόνες OLED με τα απαραίτητα ρυθμιστικά διευκολύνουν την άμεση ρύθμιση των παραμέτρων του συστήματος. Οι είσοδοι οργάνων εξασφαλίζουν την άμεση σύνδεση τους. Η μηχανή DMA η οποία λειτουργεί στα chip του Ensemble αναλύουν τα ψηφιακά δεδομένα απευθείας από τον υπολογιστή σε 32-bit format, βοηθώντας στην αύξηση της αποτελεσματικότητας των οδηγών να παρέχουν την υψηλότερη δυνατή ανάλυση σήματος. Τα εξελιγμένα και πανίσχυρα DSP σε συνδυασμό με την ταχύτατη σύνδεση Thunderbold 2 παρέχουν με 1.1ms latency στο Logic Pro X στα 96kHz meE 32 buffer setting.

Turn your computer into a powerful digital audio workstation with eight mic inputs. Or add eight high-quality mic/instrument inputs to your current system.

The 8pre FireWire audio interface delivers everything you need to turn your computer into a powerful 24-bit, 96kHz digital audio workstation. The 8pre provides eight microphone/instrument preamps with pristine 96kHz analog recording and playback, combined with 8 channels of ADAT optical digital I/O. Expand your system by connecting additional 8pres or other MOTU FireWire audio interfaces.

Use the included CueMix™ software to mix all 16 inputs from your computer. Eight channels of ADAT optical I/O make the 8pre an ideal companion for a digital mixer. Two ADAT lightpipe connections work together to support a full 8 channels of optical digital I/O at any sample rate up to 96kHz.

Connect all of your studio gear, including microphones, guitars, synths, keyboards, drum machines and even effects processors. Then monitor all of these live inputs via the 8preʼs main outs or headphone jack — with virtually no monitoring latency and no processor drain on your computer. You can even create separate monitor mixes for the main outs and headphones. Control everything, including talk-back and listen-back, from the included CueMix Console™ software, just like a large studio console.

The 8pre includes a 16-channel MIDI interface. Simply plug in your FireWire cable, and both MIDI and audio are ready to go. Connect any MIDI device, such as a controller keyboard, synth module, automated control surface or drum machine. Timing is sample-accurate with supporting software.

The 8pre provides cross-platform compatibility with Mac OS X 10.3 or higher, Windows XP and all of your favorite audio software and host-based effects via WDM/ASIO/Core Audio drivers. Or you can use the included AudioDesk workstation software for Mac OS, with 24-bit recording/editing and 32-bit mixing/processing/mastering.

The 8pre is really two products in one. When it is not connected to a computer via FireWire, the 8pre functions as an eight-channel analog to digital (optical) converter. Connect the 8pre to your MOTU 828, 896, Traveler or even another 8pre via the optical "lightpipe” connection to add eight high-quality microphone pre-amps to your system. Since the connection is digital, 100% pristine sound is maintained, down to the very last sample.

MOTU FireWire audio interfaces are fully compatible with FireWire 800-equipped Macs. All you need is a standard FireWire 400-to-800 cable. Just plug in and go. The FireWire bus operates at 400 Mb/sec, providing the same high speed, low latency and rock solid reliability that MOTU FireWire interfaces are known for.

The 8pre is the perfect way to instantly add eight more mic inputs to any audio interface or digital mixer with optical I/O. If you have a MOTU interface with on-board CueMix DSP mixing, such as the 828mkII, 896HD or Traveler, the 8pre inputs appear directly in the host interface's CueMix mixer to becomes a transparent extension of your system, operating together with your primary interface as a single, integrated unit — even when the host interface is not connected to a computer and is instead operating as a stand-alone mixer.

If you have a 2408mk3, digital mixer or other audio device that supports 96kHz optical and also has two optical inputs, the 8pre connects to it via both optical ports to provide a full eight channels of analog to optical conversion at the 88.2 or 96kHz sample rates.

The UA-1G is a compact 1 x 1 USB Audio Interface that offers excellent-quality sound via multiple connection options and a simple, user-friendly design.
