Optional Extensions

An uncompromised digital audio world

The central of a professional all-digital audio studio has been created. With the best components available and only the purest sample rate converters in the circuit, the SERAPH D4 provides an incredible 140dB dynamic range at any point of the signal flow all the way up to a samplerate of 192kHz.

Using the modern PCIe interface along with customized transfer functions, specifically designed and optimized for 32 bit high quality and high speed audio transfer, this sound system can turn a computer into a super-solid digital recorder – but also into a unique signal converter or digital mixer. That is because the 16 channel AES/EBU system offers a full-range MIDI- controllable DSP mixing desk with 64 virtual channels, 5 pre/post aux-sums, up to 4 EQs in every channel and a super-flexible routing – ideal for retaining an all-the way digital and latency-free signal flow. Thanks to its 4 AES/EBU in- and outputs and additional 8 signals via the TDM SyncBus, the SERAPH D4 will be a reliable partner and the right choice for any all-digital studio dealing with multiple digital signals.

The new total recall AES/EBU digital mixer & patchbay!

As the member of the SERAPH series it features the new BEAST DSP, which will make additional mixing or monitoring hardware obsolete. Even a patchbay can be spared….

First of all, it includes a 64-2 channel mixer with one stereo aux and 3 more mono aux sums. These Aux sums are all pre/post assignable and can thus be used for headphone mixes or as effect sends. Furthermore every of the 64 channels provides an advanced filter section with

• one low shelf EQ
• two peak EQs
• one high shelf EQ
