The Ultimate in Interface Flexibility
As your needs grow or change, you can easily add more analog inputs, analog outputs, or digital I/O by installing an option card.
• HD I/O AD Option: Adds 8 high-delity analog inputs (using DB25)
• HD I/O DA Option: Adds 8 high-delity analog outputs (using DB25)
• HD I/O Digital Option: Adds 8 channels each of AES/EBU (supports 192 kHz single-wire and dual-wire), TDIF, and ADAT
(supports S/MUX II and IV) I/O
Work with Pro Tools and More
HD I/O and all other Pro Tools HD Series interfaces completely integrate with Pro Tools|HD, so you get maximum performance,
dependability, and control of your inputs, outputs, and routing right from your Pro Tools software interface. You’ll also get higher production
quality and greater workow exibility than with previous Pro Tools interfaces. And if you want to use your interface with Pro Tools|HD and
other DAW software, you can do that too, as all Pro Tools|HD systems support Core Audio and ASIO drivers.
