Compact audio interface with on-board effects and mixing
$549

100 words:

The sturdy, full-featured UltraLite-mk3 10 x 14 Firewire audio interface turns a laptop or desktop Mac or PC computer into a mobile recording studio with on-board DSP-driven mixing, EQ, compression and reverb. You get 2 mic/instrument inputs with individual phantom power, three-way pad, 6 TRS analog ins, 10 TRS analog outs and 192 kHz recording in a compact, bus-powered, fully portable half rack I/O. Advanced features include front-panel LCD metering for all I/O, 14-bus CueMix FX on-board mixing with effects, front-panel programming, SMPTE time code sync and MIDI I/O. Effects include Classic Reverb, modeled vintage EQ, and classic compression modeled after the legendary LA-2A™.

Many words:

The UltraLite-mk3 provides flexible and mobile bus-powered operation, professional audio quality at samples rates up to 192 kHz and plenty of I/O, including two mic/instrument inputs, six line-level analog inputs, ten channels of analog output, stereo S/PDIF and a discrete stereo headphone output.

Housed in a rugged, compact enclosure you can take anywhere, the UltraLite-mk3 is equally well-suited for studio and stage, with or without a computer. As an interface or standalone mixer, the UltraLite-mk3 provides 10 separate inputs and 14 separate outputs.

Connect all of your studio gear, including microphones, guitars, synths, keyboards, drum machines, effects processors and even MIDI devices. Record, monitor, route and process all of these live inputs using the professional on-board CueMix FX digital mixer — with no latency and no processor strain on your computer. Apply hardware DSP-driven effects processing to inputs, outputs, and busses independent of your host computer. Add Classic Reverb™ with lengths up to 60 seconds. Further sculpt your sound with 7-band parametric EQ featuring filter types carefully modeled after British analog console EQs. Choose between two forms of compression: a conventional compressor and the Leveler™, an accurate model of the legendary LA-2A™ optical compressor that provides vintage, musical automatic gain control.

After programming the on-board mixing in the studio, unplug the UltraLite-mk3 from the computer and take it on the road for operation as a stand-alone mixer with effects. All mixing and effects parameters are adjustable using the front panel backlit LCD.

The UltraLite-mk3 provides cross-platform compatibility with Mac and Windows and all of your favorite audio software and host-based effects via WDM/ASIO/Core Audio drivers. Or you can use the included AudioDesk workstation software for Mac, with 24-bit recording/editing and 32-bit mixing/processing/mastering.
