Audiophile USB is the affordable, no-hassle USB audio and MIDI interface for Mac and PC. The Audiophile USB builds on the success of our popular Audiophile 2496¡ªawarded Best Soundcard by Computer Music magazine¡ªdelivering 24-bit/96k quality with great dynamic range and noise specs. That¡¯s because it uses AC-powered components that deliver better fidelity than bus-powered circuitry. The included Mac and PC drivers let you independently scale bit depth and sample rate (up to 96k) to deliver the lowest USB latency anywhere¡ªwhether you¡¯re on stage or in the studio.
