RME announces their most versatile PCI Audio Interface -- the Hammerfall DSP 9632. This card features the latest AD- and DA-converters with more than 110 dB signal to noise ratio, simultaneous operation of all inputs and outputs, easy-to-install optional analog expansion boards, TotalMix, a newly developed clock generator with total jitter suppression of external clock signals.
These are some of the features of the HDSP 9632:
- Balanced stereo analog in- and output, 96 kHz/24 bit, > 110 dB SNR
- Optional analog expansion boards with 4 balanced in- or outputs
- 1 ADAT digital I/O, supporting 96 kHz S/MUX operation
- 1 SPDIF digital I/O, 96 kHz-capable
- 1 Breakout cable for coaxial SPDIF
- 1 Stereo headphone output, parallel to the analog out, with independent level settting
- 1 MIDI I/O with 16 channels of hi-speed MIDI via breakout cable
- TotalMix: 512-channel mixer with 40 bit internal resolution
- All analog I/Os capable of 96 kHz, constant number of available channels
The HDSP 9632 comes with two useful software additions:
HDSP Meter Bridge, scalable level meter with Peak and RMS calculation in hardware, and
DIGICheck 3.0 for Windows: Spectral Analyser, professional level meter for 2, 8, or 16 channels, Vector Audio Scope, and various other audio analysis tools.
The optional expansion board contains word clock I/O BNC connections. Compared to the DIGI96/8 series, the HDSP 9632 not only offers a further improved analog interface (like balanced I/Os), but also all the features of the Hammerfall DSP series: all inputs and outputs simultaneously available, MIDI I/O and TotalMix, the DSP-based realtime mixer/router. Hardware updates through software and driver updates are risk-free thanks to the Secure BIOS Technology.
Price has yet to be announced. Expected to ship at the end of 2.quarter 2003.
