Lavry Engineering 4496-18 2-Channel Mic Preamp /Lavry Blue 449618

Advantages of the modular design:
Ideal for multi-channel systems.
Independent operation of the AD and DA converter clocking. Each MDA824 stereo DA converter module clocks from the incoming digital audio steam. This allows recording and playback at different sample rates with devices that are not synchronized; for example- record to a DAW at 96kHz while playing back a CD from a stand-alone CD player. Multiple MDAs can also operate either independently for playback of unsynchronized sources at different sample rates, or sample-accurately in multi-channel systems.
Minimal systems can contain one AD, one DA, or one of each for stereo applications. Another popular configuration is one AD and two DA modules for looping a signal out of a DAW and monitoring the re-encoded signal; as in Mastering systems with analog and digital processing.
Microphone preamplifiers can be used independently of the converters, or with analog processing inserted between the MicPre and AD input.
Digital AES/XLR inputs and outputs are compatible with most SPDIF/RCA I/O using simple adapters or adapter cables.
Field expandability allows the system to grow as your needs change or budget allows.
