Professional Audio Interface
Combines audio conversion, computer connection, routing, mixing, and monitoring in one studio unit.

Flexible Signal Routing
Routes audio between analog, digital, computer, mixer, and monitor paths through a clear control panel.

High Quality Conversion
Captures and plays back audio with detailed sound and a wide stereo image.

Clocking Support
Locks to internal, external, or atomic clock sources for stable studio synchronization.

Control Panel Software
Gives easy access to settings, routing, mixing, metering, monitoring, and presets from one application.

Front Panel Control
Allows key settings, routing, metering, volume, mute, and preset recall directly from the hardware.

Virtual Mixing
Provides built-in mixers for creating monitor mixes and routing audio without relying only on a DAW.

Built In Reverb
Adds AuraVerb reverb for live monitoring and performance use.

Surround Monitoring
Supports surround and immersive monitoring setups with speaker control and calibration tools.
