Sporting two inputs and eight outputs, a MIDI interface, and digital I/Os designed for a variety of uses, PHASE 28 features plenty of ports for all audio applications on a specially shielded break-put cable. Configured as balanced 6-3 mm (1/4") jacks, all analog connectors are designed to accept studio levels and signal resolutions of up to 24 bits / 192 kHz. Selected converters and cleverly designed circuitry enable recordists to make crystal-clear stereo recordings and play back high-resolution 5.1/7.1 Surround productions. Gain knobs serve to adjust input sensitivity individually to match analog signal sources. Two signal LEDs make it easy to dial in suitable levels for the premium quality preamp.
The PHASE 28's coaxial digital ports accept S/PDIF, AC3, and DTS data streams with all standard sampling rates up to 32 bits. What's more, the output is designed to handle sampling frequencies up to 192 kHz.
Be it ASIO 2.0, GSIF, MME, WDM, MAC OS9, MAC OSX, or Windows XP, the PHASE 28's software integrates seamlessly into all prevalent systems and programs. Often cited as a benchmark reference, its driver architecture ensures lowest latency, top performance, and flawless compatibility with the audio platform of your choice.
Offering a variety of ports, proven TerraTec technology, and transcendent audio performance on all Mac and PC systems, the PHASE 28 packs a powerful one/two punch - sophisticated studio features at a remarkably affordable price.
