Signal routing paradigm
Horus is quite possibly the most flexible audio interface
ever designed. Users can literally ro

inputs can also be sent via the MADI outputs and included in the RAVENNA stream.
RAVENNA IP Audio
Using RAVENNA IP audio,
Horus can connect to a standard network, using off the shelf swit
technology to become a node on a LAN. From that point, any other RAVENNA node can re
