AES3/SPDIF/USB/AVB-TSN audio interface with DSP and mixing The 8D provides four channels of professional AES3 (AES/EBU) digital I/O, plus four channels of standard S/PDIF digital audio I/O, with sample rate conversion on all inputs.The 8D provides universal connectivity to your Mac or PC through USB or AVB/TSN. Renowned drivers deliver industry-leading ultra-low latency and proven, rock solid performance.High-performance computer connectivity:
New, optimized drivers for both Mac and PC deliver ultra-low latency performance. With a high-performance DAW such as Digital Performer, the 8D delivers an astonishing round trip latency (RTL) of 1.70 ms (milliseconds) on OS X and 1.71 ms on Windows over USB (at 96 kHz with a 32-sample host buffer).A flexible digital converter, router, and splitter:
Send any input to any output, or split to multiple output channels. Convert any format to any other (AES3, S/PDIF, AVB-TSN and USB). Includes routing to and from the computer, plus any devices on the AVB-TSN network.DSP mixing and effects processing:
The 8D's 48-input digital mixer delivers 7 stereo aux busses, 3 groups, access to 64 network inputs, and DSP effects, including classic reverb, EQ modelled after British analog console EQs and compression modelled after the legendary LA-2A compressor. If you know your way around a large-format mixing console, you'll feel right at home. With 32-bit floating point processing, the 8D's DSP engine delivers virtually unlimited headroom and the utmost in sound quality.Stand-alone operation with wireless control:
Connect an Apple Airport or other Wi-Fi router with a standard Ethernet cable for wireless control of device settings, powerful 48-channel mixing and DSP effects.Web app control:
The software that you use to control the 8D doesn't reside on your hard drive. It's a web app served from the hardware itself. This means you can control the 8D's on-board DSP, mixing, and device settings from the web app software running in your favourite web browser on the computer, or even a tablet or smartphone on the same Wi-Fi network as your computer.Word Clock:
Standard word clock input and output allows you to resolve the 8D to other digital audio gear or house sync. Convenient headphone monitoring:
Use the assignable front-panel headphone output with volume control to monitor any stereo channel pair.Features Compact audio interface with 8 channels of digital I/O (S/PDIF, AES/EBU)Offers standalone operation, plus wireless control via Wi-Fi (requires router, not included)Built-in DSP to apply studio-quality EQ, compression, reverb and more48-channel console-style mixer with 7 stereo aux buses, 3 stereo groups, and access to 64 network inputsConnects to your Mac or PC via USB 2.0 (supports USB 3.0 and iOS)Connects to your AVB network via EthernetDaisy-chain multiple interfaces via Ethernet to add more I/OBuilt-in headphone output for monitoringUltra-low latencySpecifications Inputs 2x Coax (S/PDIF), 2x XLR (AES/EBU) Outputs 2x Coax (S/PDIF), 2x XLR (AES/EBU), 1x 1/4" (headphones) Power Supply Mains Adapter Weight (g) 900 Dimensions (mm) 220 x 177 x 45
