M-Audio Delta 1010LT Digital Recording Interface

Delta 1010LT Digital Recording Interface description:

The M-Audio DELTA 1010LT Digital Recording Interface. 10 in/10 out 24bit 96kHz audio card with mic preamps, digital I/O, MIDI I/O and more.

The M-Audio DELTA 1010LT delivers much of the same universal connectivity, high fidelity and seamless performance as the popular Delta 1010 on a single PCI card-and at a fraction of the price. Multiple analog I/O, MIDI, S/PDIF and surround sound support are all here. Two inputs even have mic/line preamps on XLR connectors, saving the expense of outboard preamps. It’s all on a compact, half-size PCI card with two color-coded breakout cables. Combine up to four Deltas in your system for a maximum of 32 analog and four stereo S/PDIF inputs and outputs. The Delta 1010 LT offers all of the interface features you need to record music on your computer, including: eight analog inputs and outputs, including 2 XLR microphone inputs with pre amps, S/PDIF in/out, MIDI in/out, and wordclock in/out. Audio from a variety of sources can be connected to the 1010-LT inputs, and the comprehensive Delta Control Panel software can set and even fine-tune the input line level. Inputs 1 & 2 on XLR jacks can be set to receive a balanced line or a mic level signal, eliminating the need for an outboard mic preamp. The S/PDIF input will interface with gear from pro DAT players to CD, DVD or Minidisc, and offers control over the SCMS copy protection protocol
