This Unit is one of two i bought to record live shows last summer. this is my main uni, i hate to let it go but need cash right now. it is in like new condition and has Velcro on the bottom where it attached to the rack tray while the power supply has some sticky residue where the Velcro that held it to the rack tray was attached . drivers and support can be found on the direct out technologies website under "legacy" product support.     ONLY THE CONVERTER, and POWER SUPPLY ARE FOR SALE The EXBOX.UMA interfaces MADI and ADAT or S/PDIF signals with USB Audio to enable a connection with any audio software application on a computer  system. Appropriate USB audio drivers are available for Windows and OS X  A remote control application is used to control system settings, signal routing and to operate an internal mixer with eight stereo busses. The USB interface is capable of transmitting 32 channels (@1 FS) in both directions for simultaneous recording and playback. Without USB connection the device can still be used as a stand-alone format converter between ADAT, S/PDIF  and MADI signals. The routing is stored internally. Applications The EXBOX.UMA can be used for recording, basic mixing, signal routing and format conversion. Typical applications include: •Mobile recording •Monitor mixes (latency-free) •Signal distribution •Assembling a MADI stream •Conversion between ADAT, S/PDIF and MADI how it works All physical inputs are organized by a FPGA. The signal processing is performed inside the device avoiding latency introduced by buffering.  The USB audio driver interfaces the device with the  operating system - an audio device with MIDI port is supplied. The device is controlled by MIDI data which is transmitted via the USB connection or via the MADI line (‘MIDI over MADI’). Using the MADI line allows for remote  control over large distances.
