PreSonus AD192


The new AD192 Digital Option Card for the Eureka Pro Recording Channel features Word Clock I/O, both AES and SPDIF outputs, 24-bit word length and sample rates of 44.1k, 48k, 96k and 192k. In addition, both Professional and Consumer digital formats are support for further flexibility and compatibility. Balanced TRS line input (RIGHT INPUT) is also included so that only one AD192 is needed for using two Eureka's in dual mono or stereo applications.Minimize


Echo MiaMIDI Sound Card


MiaMIDI offers a pair of balanced 1/4 inch analog inputs and outputs and operates at the +4dBu levels used by pro-audio gear. It combines this with 24-bit/96kHz converters and 106 dB of dynamic range for the quality your recordings deserve. Also included is an S/PDIF digital audio interface for connecting to other digital audio equipment, and MIDI input/output jacks on a custom molded cable. A unique feature of MiaMIDI is the use of virtual outputs. MiaMIDI appears to software as if it has eight separate outputs, which are digitally mixed down to the physical outputs using MiaMIDI's console software and its on-board DSP. This makes MiaMIDI compatible with all popular multi-track software. And, with Echo's multi-client drivers, more than one application (such as an editor and software synth) can be playing back through MiaMIDI at the same time.Minimize
