Comprehensive I/O and Transparent Preamps

Equipped with eight discrete 6-transistor mic preamps providing up to 65 dB of gain each, the Discrete 8 Synergy Core is ready for any microphone, instrument, or line-level source. Each preamp features dedicated phantom power, ensuring clean and transparent recordings with minimal noise. On the output side, you'll find two independent headphone outputs, balanced monitor outs, eight line outputs, and two reamp sends for guitar pedals or external processors, allowing you to manage multiple mixes and monitoring setups simultaneously. Expand your system further with ADAT and S/PDIF digital I/O, perfect for integrating external converters and digital gear. A dedicated wordclock input and outputs maintain tight synchronization with other interfaces and clocks.
