Features 8 x 4 analog I/O (up to 192kHz on all outs) 8 x 8 ADAT Lightpipe I/O plus word clock 2 analog inputs have mic/inst preamps and 192kHz sample rate coax/optical S/PDIF with PCM, AC-3 and DTS 1 x 1 MIDI I/O two individually assignable headphone outputs The FireWire 18/14 is an 18-in, 14-out audio interface complete with ADAT Lightpipe for multi-channel communication with other digital devices. It features 8 x 4 analog I/O at up to 24-bit/96kHz, and boasts 192kHz on the first two inputs and all four outputs. Channels 1 and 2 also include high-quality microphone/instrument preamps. S/PDIF optical digital I/O provides 2-channel PCM, as well as pass-through of surround-encoded AC-3 and DTS material. Flexible internal mixing allows input and output routing, including an aux bus for effects send or monitor mix. A front-panel momentary switch allows DJ-style headphone auditioning between two assignable sources. Other features include two headphone amplifiers, assignable level controller, S/PDIF coaxial/optical digital I/O, 1 x 1 MIDI I/O, and BNC word clock connectors for synchronization to other digital devices. -18 x 14 FireWire audio interface -8 x 24-bit/96kHz analog inputs (1/4” TS) -4 x 24-bit/96kHz analog outputs (1/4' TRS/TS) -2 x 4 24-bit/192kHz analog I/O capability -8 x 8 ADAT Lightpipe I/O -digital S/PDIF (coaxial) I/O w/ 2-channel PCM -digital out also supports pass-through of AC-3/DTS surround-encoded content -dual mic/instrument preamps (Neutrik XLR/ 1/4” TS) with -• input level controls -• 20dB pad -• phantom power -• signal LEDs -two independently assignable headphone outputs with individual level controls (1/4" TRS) -flexible software-controlled mixing of hardware and software I/O -aux sends on all channels and aux output assign allows for dedicated headphone mixes and sends to external effects -user-assignable front-panel level control (output, input, software return, aux send) -near zero-latency hardware direct monitoring -low-latency ASIO software direct monitoring -momentary switch for A/B cueing two software-assignable headphone sources or switching ASIO monitoring on/off -1 x 1 16-channel MIDI I/O -wordclock (BNC) for sync to external devices -power on/off switch with indicator LED -powered via FireWire bus* or included DC power adapter -two convenient high-bandwidth FireWire ports -rugged steel construction * requires 6-pin connection line inputs (TS) 1-8 frequency response:-+/- 0.1 dB, 22Hz to 22kHz dynamic range:-105dB, A-weighted signal-to-noise ratio:--105dB, A-weighted THD+N:-<0.00281% (-91dB) crosstalk:--107dB @ 1 kHz nominal input level:--10dBV maximum input level:-+2.1dBV, typical input impedance:-10k Ohms, typical Mic/inst. inputs (balanced) 1-2 at minimum gain- frequency response:-+/- 0.1 dB, 22 Hz to 22 kHz dynamic range:-105dB, A-weighted signal-to-noise ratio:--105dB, A-weighted THD+N:-<0.00281% (-91dB) crosstalk:--105 dB @ 1 kHz --3.8 dBu, typical input impedance:-inst in: 500k Ohms, typical; mic in: 1.8k Ohms, typical adjustable gain:-> 40 dB pad:--20 dB total gain range:-+60 dB line outputs (TRS) 1-4- frequency response: -192 kHz: +/- 1 dB, 22Hz – 80kHz -96kHz: +/- 0.5 dB, 22Hz – 40kHz -48 kHz: +/- 0.1 dB, 22Hz – 22kHz dynamic range:-107dB, A-weighted signal-to-noise ratio:--107dB, A-weighted THD+N:-<0.00301% (-90.5 dB) crosstalk:--106dB @ 1 kHz nominal output level:-+4dBu balanced, -10dBV unbalanced maximum output level:-+10.2dBu balanced, typical; +2.0dBV unbalanced, typical output impedance:-150 Ohm load impedance:-600 Ohm minimum headphone outputs at maximum volume into 32 Ohm load - frequency response:-+/- 1 dB, 22Hz to 22kHz power into Ohms:-16 mW into 32 Ohms THD+N:-<0.04987% (-66.1 dB) signal-to-noise ratio:--96 dB, A-weighted max output level into 32 Ohms:--3.0dBV, typical output impedance:-75 Ohm load impedance:-32 to 600 Ohms word clock - output:-up to 192kHz input:-up to 96kHz pass-through I/O:-up to 96kHz impedance:-75 Ohms analog sampling rates: -44.1kHz to 192kHz for analog input 1/2 and all analog outputs -44.1kHz to 96kHz input on channels 3-8 digital sampling rates (kHz) -44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 for coaxial S/PDIF in and out -44.1 and 48 for optical S/PDIF in & out -44.1, 48, or 88.2, 96 for ADAT I/O in S/MUX mode (all values tested at 48 kHz sample rate unless otherwise stated) |
