The Missing Link
Digital Konnekt x32 is every studio's missing link, integrating digital equipment with computer-based recording setups. Digital Konnekt x32 is the utility product fitting the needs of project studios and other digital setups in need of a 'Swiss army knife" in digital signal handling. It features FireWire connection to and from your DAW and it allows efficient routing and conversion between multiple digital formats and sample rates, as well as providing extra features such as analog outputs, scene recall, convenient monitoring and front panel lock.
All the Tools - One Toolbox
Up until now, the pro audio market has only seen single function units such as format and sample rate converters, patchbays and audio interfaces offering digital signal handling. Never before have these essential functions been incorporated in a single platform linking your entire fleet of digital devices to your DAW.
Make your favorite hardware the heart of your DAW
With Digital Konnekt and the new Integrator plug-in, you can now utilize your trusted and favorite digital hardware tools within your DAW system! Featuring TC's plug-in streaming technology, the Integrator plug-in facilitates seamless integration of all external units with your recording setup; once connected, adding the unique sound of your Reverb4000 (or any other digital external hardware unit) is just a mouse click away. And with the built-in latency roundtrip measuring feature and your DAWs latency compensation, your projects will not suffer from latency introduced by the external hardware. Since Integrator operates like a normal VST/AU plug-in it can be inserted on any track, as a send effect or on the master output of your host application.
JET technology ensures rock solid digital signal handling
The TC-developed DICE II chip, running Digital Konnekt x32's super stable clock, is based on JET, Jitter Elimination Technology. With the integrated JET technology the DICE II chip is able to align all digital signals from external digital sources with extreme perfection. The great benefit of this is that all supported digital formats will be automatically aligned and thereby you get maximum digital quality through and through.
Digital Patchbay and Format Converter
Tired of re-wiring over and over again? With Digital Konnekt x32 you connect your digital hardware once, make the wiring that fits your setup requirements and you're good to go. All subsequent routing takes place from the front panel of Digital Konnekt x32. Digital Konnekt x32 provides efficient format conversion between units using ADAT, SPDIF, TOS and AES/EBU digital formats.
