Track 16 Personal Recording Studio
Turn your laptop or desktop computer into a powerful recording studio with
plenty of I/O and DSP-driven mixing, EQ, compression and reverb
-=-=-=-
The Track16 connects to any Mac or PC laptop or desktop computer via
bus-powered FireWire or high-speed USB 2.0, with professional audio
quality at sample rates up to 192 kHz. Track16 provides plenty of I/O for
a well-equipped studio, including two mic inputs, two guitar inputs, two
stereo line-level inputs, four channels of analog output, optical digital
I/O (stereo TOSLink or 8-channel ADAT) and an independent stereo headphone
output.
Track16's compact size is perfect desktop studio operation, with one-touch
volume control of any input or output channel pair. Four pairs of
7-segment ladder LEDs provide level metering for all analog inputs and
outputs at a glance. Housed in a rugged, compact enclosure you can take
anywhere, the Track16 is equally well-suited for studio and stage,
providing 16 separate inputs and 14 separate outputs, plus 16-channel MIDI
input and output.
Connect all of your studio gear, including microphones, guitars, synths,
keyboards, drum machines, effects processors and even MIDI devices.
Record, monitor, route and process all of these live inputs using the
professional on-board CueMix FX digital mixer — with no latency and no
processor strain on your computer. Apply hardware DSP-driven effects
processing to inputs, outputs, and busses independent of your host
computer. Add Classic Reverb™ with tail lengths up to 60 seconds. Further
sculpt your sound with 7-band parametric EQ meticulously modeled after
British analog console EQs. Use two forms of compression: a conventional
compressor and the Leveler™, an accurate model of the legendary LA-2A™
optical compressor that provides vintage, musical automatic gain control.
Use Track16’s on-screen CueMix FX software to tune your guitar and other
instruments. Analyze and scope your audio with advanced diagnostic tools,
including a full-screen real-time FFT display, spectrogram “waterfall”
display, full-featured oscilloscope, X-Y plot, and rectangular/polar phase
analysis graphs.
The Track16 provides cross-platform compatibility with Mac and Windows and
all of your favorite audio software and host-based effects via industry
standard WDM/ASIO/Core Audio drivers. Or you can use the included
AudioDesk workstation software for Mac OS X, with 24-bit recording/editing
and 32-bit mixing, processing and mastering.
