Equipped with a SoundGrid DSP server, the DiGiGrid IOS-XL offloads plug-in processing from your computer, so you can instantiate more instances of your favorite plug-ins, including CPU-hungry effects that can slow down your system. Plug-ins give you an incredible opportunity to audition effects and processors and endlessly tweak our sound sources, but, sometimes, committing to a tone while recording can inspire creativity. With the DiGiGrid IOS-XL, you can track through SoundGrid compatible plug-ins in real time with ultra-low latency for an experience not unlike recording through outboard gear.
Power and flexibility of networked audio
Many large-scale professional studios and moderate and small project studios are embracing networked audio because of its ability to interface numerous pieces of equipment for streamlined and centralized workflows. Networked audio setups, such as DiGiGrid, are ideal for multiroom studios, providing stable connections between rooms while minimizing the number of cables needed. You can outfit each recording station with its own interface, headphone amps, and more — all unified in a single system. Additionally, networked audio excels at integrating MIDI devices, making it easier than ever to coordinate your cadre of analog synths, drum machines, and modular gear.
Eight high-quality preamps and more
The DiGiGrid IOS-XL includes eight premium combo mic/line preamps with a clean, uncolored tone. Using SoundGrid studio, you have control over preamp gain input, polarity flip, and digital input trim for each channel to make on-the-fly adjustments in live sound situations or to dial in settings during a studio recording session. The interface sports eight 1/4” analog line outputs (with an alternate DB-25 balanced connector eight-channel output) for sending multiple monitor mixes, analog summing, hardware integration, reamping, and other creative applications. Other connections include 5-pin DIN MIDI I/O, USB, AES I/O, Word Clock, S/PDIF, and four ethernet connections to expand your DiGiGrid system.
