| 96i enables you to readily introduce output from third-party
outboard gear - keyboards, samplers, effects, and other
line-level equipment - into your Pro Tools environment. Its
16 analog inputs provide balanced or unbalanced A/D conversion
using tip-ring-sleeve (TRS) 1/4" connectors. A S/PDIF port
capable of 24-bit digital I/O allows you to connect professional
DAT recorders, CD players, and other digital recording devices.
A/D and D/A converters of the same quality as those of the
Digidesign 96 I/O ensure that your signal's fidelity is
maintained going into and coming out of Pro Tools.
