Presonus FireStudio Lightpipe 
[FSLIGHTPIPE012345]

More Details:

The PreSonus FireStudio Lightpipe is a 32 input, 32 output, 24-bit/96k lightpipe to FireWire computer recording system for professional-quality digital audio recording. Compatible with both Windows and Macintosh computer systems, the FireStudio Lightpipe allows you to convert up to 32 channels of ADAT or SMUX optical lightpipe input/output via FireWire providing a multi-channel computer interface for digital mixers, AD/DA converters or ADAT recorders. FireStudio Lightpipe features JetPLL jitter elimination technology for ultra tight synchronization and improved imaging and clarity along with a 34x4 DSP matrix mixer allowing you to create dual zero-latency stereo monitor mixes. Fast-acting input/output LED meters are located on the front panel for quick and easy visual monitoring of all signals. The FireStudio Lightpipe is the perfect interface for expanding and enhancing your music production!

DSP Mixer/Router The FireStudio Lightpipe also includes the FireControl Mixer - a 34x4 DSP mixer for creating up to two zero latency stereo mixes for monitoring during recording and playback.

JetPLL Syncronization Tight synchronization between the FireWire chipset and the computer are essential for clarity and stabilization. The FireStudio Lightpipe uses patented JetPLL jitter reduction technology to virtually remove all audio band jitter resulting in better stereo separation and clearer more transparent audio. JetPLL delivers ultra-fast locking to any digital format through a wide range of frequencies and is extremely robust and tolerant of wide variations in clock frequencies. JetPLL ensures near perfect clock performance when networking audio devices, thus creating the most stable and robust synchronization to the computer.

**System Requirements **

Windows

OS Microsoft Windows XP Peripherals IEEE 1394 FireWire port CPU/Clock Pentium, Athlon with 900Mhz or higher (1.5GHz recommended) Memory (RAM) 256 MB (512 MB recommended)

Macintosh

OS Mac OS X ver 10/3/7 or later (Tiger 10.4.2 recommended) CPU/Clock PowerPC G4/800Mhz or higher (G4/Dual 16 Hz recommended), all Intel/Mac models Memory (RAM) 256 MB (512 MB recommended)

Note that the speed of your processor, amount of RAM and size and speed of your hard drive will greatly affect the overall performance of your recording system. Also, a more powerful system (faster processor with more RAM) will allow for lower latency (signal delay) that you might experience while monitoring audio or MIDI signals.

Not recommended for use with NEC, RICOH, and AGERE chipsets.
