Audient Expands EVO Range with SP8 With 8-Channel Smart Mic Preamp

Audient expanded its EVO range of USB-C audio interfaces with the EVO SP8 8-Channel Smart Mic Preamp ada AD/DA converter, a compact unit combining 8 microphone/line inputs, 8 line outputs, and two ADAT I/O connections, allowing it to handle multi-mic recording sessions with ease. Building upon its successful EVO range of audio recording equipment, Audient designed the EVO SP8 to expand the possibilities of its EVO audio interface range for bigger multitrack sessions.

Prism Sound introduced a new Dante Module for its Atlas and Titan professional audio interfaces. The new Dante module allows multiple Titan or Atlas units to be connected directly to a Dante-equipped Ethernet network, providing another important option for users to continue to benefit from the excellent sound quality of the units' A/D and D/A converters, and their equally well regarded on-board microphone preamplifiers.

Probably because it was designed to sit on a rack and doesn't need bus power, PreSonus made the announcement that it is now shipping the Quantum 4848 24-bit, 192 kHz, Thunderbolt audio interface. Not a Thunderbolt 3 solution, as common-sense would dictate for a product launched at the end of 2018, but a Thunderbolt 2 product which will require an adaptor. Otherwise, the professional recording solution includes the company’s excellent Studio One Professional recording, mixing, and mastering software for macOS and Windows and is extremely affordable for the specs.

Dutch company Cymatic Audio introduced the uTrack 24, a universal hardware recorder / player / interface in 19" format, designed for people who want to do high-quality recordings without the need of a computer. The uTrack 24 also turns into a powerful and comprehensive audio interface when used under OS X, Windows and iOS and Cymatic promises the uTrack 24 will be able to playback standard MIDI data.
