Analogue > Digital > Analogue

These remotely controlled Mic/Line Input and Output cards are 3rd generation Dual Gain topology designs, inspired from the Anubis’ outstanding Preamps, that show zero tolerance to any compromise on the audio quality.

Available in two models that operate up to 192kHz (ADA8V3S) and DXD/DSD256 (ADA8V3P). Both the ADA8V3S and its premium variant can be added to a HAPI MkIII to achieve up to 16 channels of analogue in/out.

Features

  • 8 exceptionally transparent pre-amplifiers
  • Remote/Local switch to Line Level on a per channel basis
  • Completely accessible remotely for all parameter changes
  • Phantom Power/Polarity Invert/Low Cut/Impedance switchable per channel
  • Dynamic range of 139dB (A-weighted, typ) on the Line inputs
  • Auto-mute circuitry for “no-pop” power cycling
  • Digitally controlled output trims for line up procedures
  • Dynamic range of 124dB (ADA8S), 125dB (ADA8P) (A-weighted, typ.) on the Line outputs

Compatibility With HAPI

All analogue I/O V3 cards are compatible with the HAPI MkIII and the HAPI MkII but not compatible with the Horus or original HAPI.
