With two symmetrical inputs and eight symmetrical outputs,
MIDI and multipurpose digital I/Os, the PHASE 28 offers a
variety of connection options spanning all directions. All analog
connections are designed for ¼” (6.3 mm) TRS jacks and
produce studio levels.
The finest converter elements and a well-thought-out board
design allow crystal-clear recording in stereo and the
reproduction of high-resolution 7.1 surround productions. All
analog outputs as well as the digital output of the PHASE 28
system process audio signals with a futuristically impressive
24 Bit/192 kHz resolution. The sensitivity of both inputs makes
it possible to adjust to separate analog sources using the gain
regulator on the slot plate. Furthermore, two signal LEDs on the
slot plate indicate optimized recording level of the excellent
preamplifiers.
The coaxial digital interface of the Phase 28 PCI board lets you
receive S/PDIF, AC3 and DTS data streams at all usual sample
rates of up to 32 Bit. Furthermore, the output can process
sampling frequencies of up to 192 kHz meeting absolutely the
best prerequisites for a flexible audio network using Steinberg's
VST System-Link!
ASIO, GSIF, MME, WDM, OSX or XP: on the software side, not
only can you count on the field's most popular abbreviations, but
you can also count on their superior performance. The driver
architecture, which has been fully developed and is often used as
a standard, guarantees lowest latencies and a neat interplay
with the audio platform of your choice.
Multiple connection options, proven technology and outstanding
audio performance for MAC or PC do not need to be expensive:
TerraTec's professional system PHASE 28 combines advanced
audio features with a price that will make both professional and
amateur ears perk up!
Authoritative sound and strong connections: TerraTec's PHASE 28 audio system is the nice
priced way to enter the world of professional studio recording!
