The interface can connect to any Mac or PC via USB 2.0, and is compatible with most DAWs. Additionally, it can function independently from a computer as a mixer, meaning it can handle additional duties well beyond the demands of a recording studio. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalancing levels is a synch, as each input has its own volume control, which can be conveniently access from the front panel. This feature is especially handy when using the Audio Express as a live mixer. Users can also route inputs to any output pairing, giving each its own unique mix: main outs, line outs, S\/PDIF, and headphones. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen operating as a standalone mixer, the interface maintains control over its four mix busses, with volume, mute, and solo available per input. This means that each mix can be sent to a different destination. For example, consider a PA setup for a basic live event; using the Audio Express, one mix can be routed to the primary PA while another is routed to personal monitors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAUDIO EXPRESS FEATURES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-input, 6-output audio interface for Mac and Windows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 x 8 physical input\/output channels - all channels are available simultaneously and operate independently\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHybrid FireWire\/USB 2.0 connectivity - connect to your Mac or PC via either bus-powered FireWire or high-speed USB2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-bus digital mixer routes and mixes all six inputs to any output pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour separate mixes - each output pair (main outs, line outs, S\/PDIF out, and phones) can have a completely different mix of all six inputs, with or without computer tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo microphone\/guitar combo jacks provide hi-Z 1\/4\" guitar input or XLR microphone input with phantom power, 20dB pad, Precision Digital Trim, and plenty of gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo analog inputs on line-level, balanced TRS quarter-inch jacks - great for keyboards or other line level-input signals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo main outs on balanced TRS quarter-inch jacks -connect directly to powered speakers (or other line-level analog destination)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo 24-bit\/96kHz S\/PDIF digital in\/out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo headphone output on quarter-inch jack with independent volume control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport for standard sample rates up to 96 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision Digital Trim - digitally controlled analog trim on all inputs provides adjustments in approximately 1.0dB increments - fine-tune the balance of your inputs and then save\/recall trim configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-panel mixing and control with each input having its own dedicated volume knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl multiple mixes with clear feedback from front panel LEDs and metering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCueMix FX cross-platform mixing software - attractive on-screen graphic mixing with an instrument tuner and audio analysis tools including real-time FFT display, spectrogram \"waterfall\" display, oscilloscope, X-Y plot and linear or polar phase analysis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStand-alone operation - bring the Audio Express to your gig, with or without a computer - just plug in the included power adapter and you are ready to go - need to tweak the mix?
