24-bit 96kHz AD/DA with 32-bit Internal Resolution
Waveterminal uses 24-bit 96kHz AD/DA converter with 32-bit internal resolution.That means your original analog audio sources retain their sonic integrity with full dynamic range and frequency response. You will notice a striking difference in the sound quality when you compare Waveterminal with other PCI sound cards.
32-bit PCI Bus Mastering Support
With PCI Bus Mastering support, Waveterminal works faster and more efficiently than other audio cards - allowing your CPU to allocate more resources to your audio programs. Typically, Waveterminal uses only small amount of your system resources, compared to 20~30% for other audio cards.
+4 dBu Balanced Analog I/O
After you've spent all the time and money for the advantages of digital audio, you don't want to let it go to waste with mismatched impedance. If you know anything about analog audio, you'd never hook up professional audio equipment with consumer audio gear. All pros use +4 dBu balanced I/O's.
Full Duplex Recording & Playback
Waveterminal can record and playback 4 channels of analog and/or S/PDIF digital audio simultaneously. For example, you can record digital audio from your CD-ROM and analog stereo audio simultaneously, while you playback some other digital audio samples through S/PDIF and analog outputs ? all at the same time.
The Professional's Choice with Entry-level Price
Just check out the specs, and you will understand why more professionals choose Waveterminal. Yet, you will be surprised how affordable it is. You simply get more performance and quality workmanship.
Waveterminal 2496 also supports Mac OS for ASIO 2.0 and Apple Sound Manager drivers.
