November 25, 2000TC Electronic has announced the upcoming release of
it's new AES-8 digital expansion card for System 6000. The AES-8 I/O card
expands the Audio Mainframe to a maximum 16 AES/EBU inputs and outputs, all
running at sample rates up to 96kHz. "This is a big upgrade for digital
studios", said US Managing Director, Ed Simeone. "You can now freely route
16 digital ins and outs to take full advantage of the System 6000's
powerful multi-channel DSP engines. Two stereo AD-DA cards can also be
installed in the same audio frame bringing the total to 20 I/Os, with any
16 inputs and 20 outputs active simultaneously."
AES-8 will have a retail list price of $1,995, bringing the price of a
System 6000 with 16 digital ins and outs to $11,395. Existing System 6000
owners can retrofit the AES-8 I/O card in one of the System 6000 I/O slots.
"This is a valuable product for the 5.1 digital surround environment",
continues Simeone, "for along with top quality 5.1 reverb, you also get 5.1
Room Simulation, 8-channel Pitch, and numerous stereo algorithms on the
same platform".
Upgrade information is available for System 6000 owners through TC
