2. Features
24-bit Analog-to-Digital and Digital-to-Analog Converters
Highest quality 24-bit AD/DA converters in U24 provide unmatched
sound quality with exceptionally low noise.
2-In/2-Out Analog Audio Inputs and Outputs and Headphone connector
U24 provides 1/4” phone jacks for use with –10dBV nominal level
consumer audio equipment. Unlike some audio cards that deliberately
boost their output levels to give you a false sense of audio quality, U24
gives you a true indication of your levels. Nothing’s added or taken
away unless you intend to do so. If you need to adjust levels, digital
level adjustment is provided for analog inputs and outputs. You can
also use Analog Out L as Headphone connector.
S/PDIF Coaxial /Optical Digital In & Out
U24 offers S/PDIF digital input and output via Optical or Coaxial ports.
There’s no additional conversion process for signal already recorded.
Multiple Sample Rate Support
Supports all denomination of 44.1kHz or 48kHz standard sample rates
from 32kHz, 44.1kHz and 48kHz. U24 can be used in a variety of
applications.
Real-time Hardware Sample Rate Conversion
Regardless of the type of sample rates, U24 automatically converts the
incoming digital audio signal to the sample rate of your choice in real-
time.
