The Hybrid OPAL22 is a dual-channel USB audio interface designed to connect analog audio signals to a computer for recording and monitoring. It features two professional-quality mic preamps and 24-bit/96kHz analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters, ensuring high-resolution and pristine signal quality. The device is bus-powered via USB 2.0, making it convenient for portable setups, though users should ensure their PC can supply sufficient power, especially when multiple bus-powered USB devices are connected.
The OPAL22 allows users to pre-amplify and record two analog audio signals into a connected PC using a USB 2.0 connection, leveraging low-latency ASIO technology (PC only) for efficient performance. It includes branded converters that contribute to its high resolution and sampling rate, ensuring clear and untainted signal quality. Before recording, input signals can be directly monitored, and a dedicated monitoring level control is provided for precise adjustments. The interface also integrates a MIDI interface, allowing for the connection of compatible MIDI equipment to send and receive MIDI information from and to the connected PC.
The OPAL22 offers a range of features for flexible audio input and output:
The OPAL22 is built with robust components to ensure reliability. However, certain parts common in audio products, such as potentiometers, faders, and switches, are subject to wear over time due to operation cycles.
