We always quote 'real world' performance figures (measured to the AES17 standard). Some companies choose to quote chipset performance, which is misleading, and
here's why.
Microphone Inputs 1-2
• Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz +/- 0.2 dB
• Gain Range: +13dB to +60dB
• THD+N: 0.001% (measured at 1kHz with a 20Hz/22kHz bandpass filter)
• Noise EIN: 124dB analogue to digital (measured at 60dB of gain with 150Ω termination 20Hz/22kHz bandpass filter)
• Input Impedance: 2kΩ
Digital performance
• A/D Dynamic Range > 109dB (A-weighted), all analogue inputs
• D/A Dynamic Range > 106dB (A-weighted), all analogue outputs
• Clock Sources:
- Internal Clock

Line Inputs (Inputs 1-2)
• Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz +/- 0.2dB
• Gain Range: -10dB to +36dB

• Noise: -90dBu (22Hz/22kHz bandpass filter)
• Input Impedance: >10kΩ
Line Inputs 3-4
• Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz +/- 0.2 dB
• Gain Range: Switch-able between +16dBu or -10dBV for 0dBFS (balanced inputs)

• Noise: -100dBu (22Hz/22kHz bandpass filter)
• Input Impedance: >10kΩ
Instrument Inputs (Inputs 1 and 2)
• Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz +/- 0.1dB
• Gain Range: +13dB to +60dB
• THD+N: 0.004% (measured with 0dBu input and 20Hz/22kHz bandpass filter)
• Noise: -87dBu (20Hz/22kHz bandpass filter)
Analogue Audio Outputs (Outputs 1-4)
• 4 Electronically Balanced Outputs
• Maximum Output Level (0dBFS): +12dBu

Crosstalk (Channel Isolation)
• Any input to input: > 100dB
• Any output to output: > 100dB
• Any input to output: > 100dB
Dimensions (W x H x D):
