M-Audio Audiophile 192 Audio Card

M-Audio Audiophile 192 Digital PCI Card Interface--the newest member of the popular Delta line. It continues the legacy of M-Audio's industry-standard Delta audio card line. As one of the world's most popular audio cards, the Audiophile 192 features high-definition 192kHz sampling rate, balanced analog I/O, digital I/O and an amazing signal-to-noise ratio. The digital I/O supports surround-encoded AC-3 and DTS pass-through when used with Windows XP and Mac OS X computers, so you can listen to surround audio from DVDs and encoded tracks from your audio software.

The Audiophile 192 comes with many useful functions. The separate balanced 1/4" TRS monitor outputs can be routed to a mixer or powered speakers, whichever you need in your studio. In addition, input and output routing can be controlled via included software to provide maximum flexibility for your recording setup. The Audiophile 192, as with all Delta cards, offers you rock-solid drivers and seamless integration with your favorite Mac and PC applications - and even the ability to combine multiple Delta cards in one system. And since M-Audio is always ahead of the pack, this world-class card is also compliant with PCI 2.2 and 64-bit audio drivers so you're ready to take advantage of next-generation platforms and software. The M-Audio Audiophile 192 represents a new benchmark in audio performance that's as good as it gets for music production, mastering and critical listening.
