Modular I/O and Multi I/O Recording Solutions
The PHASE 88 is a professional audio and MIDI interface that
transforms any Mac or PC into a professional recording system.
Eight high-quality analog input and output converters process
audio signals (from start to finish and from hardware to software)
with up to 24-bit/96kHz resolution. The PHASE 88’s converters
are housed in a 5
1
4˝ module that can be installed in or placed out-
side the computer. An additional S/PDIF (coaxial) digital
input/output on the PCI bus card provides the perfect interface to
the digital studio environment.
PHASE 88 RACK offers all the ports required for a music
production system. The modular system can be extended to 40
physical inputs and outputs. Based on the PHASE 88 recording
interface, the rack version offers eight analog inputs and outputs
with 24-bit/96-kHz resolution in an external 19˝ rack module.
All inputs and outputs are balanced for noise-free signal routing;
1/4˝ jacks are mounted on the rear panel. In addition to the
(coaxial) S/PDIF digital interface and two separate MIDI
inputs/outputs, PHASE 88 RACK features two balanced
microphone inputs on the front panel.

AMP STUDIO USB
Barely the size of a deck of cards, phono PreAmp
Studio USB lets you professionally edit records and
cassettes on your computer at a level of quality and
then immortalize them on CD via a USB port—
without sound card!
PHASE 88 Rack: Multi I/O recording solution
They Both Feature
Based on proven TerraTec technology, the
PHASE 88 interface features optimized
conversion components and cleverly
designed circuits, enabling recordists to cut
crystal-clear recordings on up to eight
tracks simultaneously and even play back
high-resolution 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound.
To make the most of the 24-bit converter's
excellent dynamic range, they are equipped
with an on-board 20-channel hardware
mixer with 36-bit internal resolution and
20-in-4 routing. Perfect solution for stu-
dios that do without an external mixer.
Every input port features a dedicated ana-
log stage that can be switched from -10
dBv to +4dBv, as well as a variable amp
with up to 18 dB gains. Channel thru mon-
itoring generates zero latency, and latency
introduced by the ASIO 2.0 driver comes
to less than three ms.
Drivers for Windows 98/ME, 2000, XP
(ASIO 2.0, DirectSound, MME with Multi-
Client mode, and ASIO GSIF Multi-
Client), Mac OS 9.1, and OSX (ASIO 2.0).
Phase 88
Up to four PHASE 88 recording systems can
be synchronized and cascaded within a single
computer. This means that systems with up
to 40 physical inputs and outputs and 64
MIDI channels can be configured without
adding to the CPU load.
Phase 88 RACK
Up to four PHASE 88 RACK systems can be
synchronized and cascaded within a single
computer. This means that the system can be
extended to 40 physical inputs and outputs
and eight MIDI I/Os with 128 MIDI channels
without adding to the CPU load.
For all turntables with moving magnet
(MM) cartridges
External housing makes opening up the
computer unnecessary. Simply connect
the record player to the PC through the
phono PreAmp. That’s it! No extra drivers
or even a power outlet required: power is
taken directly from the USB port.
Adjustable three-stage input capacity
Precision RIAA curve equalization for
true-to-life playback
Bundled Sound Rescue software lets you
dramatically reduce or even get rid of
unwanted noise such as crackling and
static in real-time while maintaining the
original, authentic sound quality.
