ART TUBEOPTO 8

Light up your audio interface with this input/output expander

FOR: Tube-driven input/output (I/O). If you’re looking to expand the I/O on your ADAT-compliant interface, ART’s TubeOpto 8 features eight channels of top-class tube-driven mojo sure to cure what’s ailing you. Each of the Opto 8’s channels feature gain and output controls as well as pad, low cut and phase switches for lots of useful functionality. You can dial in as much tube clipping as needed with the gain control, which in turn feeds the output control for setting the channel level before hitting the A/D converter. The back panel sports eight XLR/quarter-inch combo inputs, ADAT and word clock I/O. And if you just want to jump in and start tracking your favorite axe without having to explore the back of your rack, you’ll love the two Hi-Z quarter-inch inputs on the face of the unit.

NOT FOR: Interfaces without ADAT I/O.
