PRESONUS DIGIMAX LT- 8 CH.MIC PREAMP w-ADAT LIGHTPIPE OUTPUT

The DigiMAX LT is essential to the modern digital studio. Eight channels of pristine mic
preamplification, inserts on every channel, and an internal power supply set this unit apart
from anything on the market. Each channel features our award-winning, high performance,
dual servo microphone preamplifiers with 48V phantom power, and -20dB pad. Each channel
features a Neutrik?connector that accepts line level or microphone input. DigiMAX LT digital
synchronization is achieved by offering word clock in and out via BNC connectors. The sample
rate can be set on the front panel to 48K, 44.1K, and 32K providing compatibility across multiple
platforms.
The DigiMAX LT provides TRS inserts on every channel to allow external dynamics processors
or equalizers to be placed in the signal chain. The DigiMAX LT is the perfect partner for recording
systems such as DigiDesign 002?, MOTU828, MOTU 2408? as well as numerous digital mixers
and hard disk recorders.

 The OctaMic II provides 8-Channel 192 kHz / 24 bit AD conversion with eight hi-class microphone and line pre-amplification channels, featuring a combination of sophisticated components and approved RME technology.

Lowest distortion, excellent signal to noise ratio and perfectly linear frequency response transmit and amplify the microphone signals truly unchanged.

The OctaMic II includes some significant enhancements compared to the OctaMic:

The balanced TRS inputs of the Neutrik Combo XLR jacks are phantom power-free and can be operated as real line inputs too. The improved design of the input circuits allows for a maximum input level of +21 dBu with a convenient gain range from 6 dB up to 60 dB.
Improved signal to noise ratio (SNR) ADC 107.5 dB
Improved THD, especially at higher gains
Optimised heat dissipation by a new and larger housing with improved convection
Internal wide range power supply with line filter, insensitive to voltage fluctuations
Super-stable, short circuit proof 48 V phantom power


Features

OctaMic II offers 8 balanced XLR mic / line inputs via Neutrik XLR/TRS combo jacks. Each channel contains switches for 48V phantom power, a low cut filter and phase reversal. Amplification can be set between 6 and 60 dB. LEDs for signal, clip, and activated phantom power give a complete overview on the unit's status. When the special Clip Hold mode is activated, any detected clip-state will cause the corresponding LED to flash once per second. With this, the user gets a long-term peak detection, and no longer needs to constantly watch the LEDs. At the same time momentary overloads are still displayed correctly.

Frontside switches include power on/off and output level, for a choice of -10 dBV, +4 dBu or Hi Gain (+19 dBu) as reference level. This unusual feature offers two advantages. First, the reference level can be easily switched to match any of RME's current interface devices, from HDSP 9632 through Multiface up to the renowned ADI-8 series converters. Second, the Signal to Noise ratio is optimized, and the Clip-LED will exactly match the ones of the ADI-8 (2 dB below 0 dBFS).

The balanced line level output signal is available at the back of the unit via 8 stereo TRS jacks. The specially developed, internal hi-performance switch mode power supply lets the OctaMic II operate in the range of 100V to 240V AC. It is short-circuit-proof, has an integrated line-filter, is fully regulated against voltage fluctuations, and suppresses mains interference.

AD-Conversion

The 8-Channel AD-conversion of the OctaMic II operates at up to 192 kHz. The digitized signal is available simultaneously at the double ADAT output (S/MUX, up to 96 kHz), and at a DB-25 connector (4 AES/EBU outputs, up to 192 kHz). The digital part can be clocked internally (master) and externally via word clock, AES/EBU and SPDIF.

RME's outstanding SteadyClock(TM) ensures perfect AD-conversion, as jitter on the external sync-sources is nearly completely removed. All settings are done via DIP-switches on the back of the OctaMic II. Analog outputs and both digital outputs operate fully simultaneously. The choice of reference level affects the analog outputs only, the signal/clip indication and the AD-conversion will react only to the Gain-pots.

The PreSonus HP60 is the most flexible and advanced headphone amplifier system available for professional and project recording studios as well as live sound in-ear monitoring systems. Loaded with six independent,
loud and clear headphone amplifiers, the HP60 features dual stereo inputs as well as external input, for each
channel allowing you to mix between three stereo audio streams (mix A, mix B, and external input). Stereo output is also available on each channel to send line level headphone channel mixes to additional headphone amplifiers or monitor systems. Each channel features headphone level, mix control between A and B inputs, external input volume, mute and mono. The HP60 also features talkback via external XLR microphone input. Common set up of the HP60 in a recording session is to send the main control room mix to input A. Send the click track to input B. Send the each band member direct recording input to each channelʼs external input (more me). This will allow each band member to create a mix between the main mix, the click track and themselves. The HP60 is the ultimate headphone amplification system delivering loud and clear headphone mixes for real-world recording situations.

Features:
-Six independent ultra low noise, high output headphone amplifiers (150 mW per channel)
-Two sets of stereo inputs (A and B) with balanced TRS connectors
-Stereo external input point on each channel for "more me” with trim control
-Mix control between inputs A and B
-Talkback with external XLR microphone with control
-Direct stereo line output on each channel
