Clara Dmaj - 8 x AES/EBU I/O PCIe card, 24 bit 192KHz

In the space of just one PCIe slot width, the Clara Dmaj provides the connection for 32 audio channels. The AES/EBU inputs and outputs 1 to 4 as well as a word clock input are located on the motherboard. Connectors 5 to 8 break out on a D-Sub connector which has no active electronics. Consequently, it can freely be placed in the computer’s case, separated from the motherboard. Or it may take any place next to other PCIe components with the slot bracket.

Precision Clock
The internal clocking of the Clara sound system has an amazingly low jitter of less than one nanosecond. This is beneficial to the audio quality of the system and that of any connected digital device. Often the clock of the Clara D is many times more precise than the internal clock of the connected device and thus makes the purchase of a separate clock generator unnecessary.

The highest Audio Quality
The Clara Dmaj is the elegant partner for pure digital signal processing of many AES/EBU signals. HD audio quality with 24 Bit and sample resolutions of up to 192 kHz guarantee a pristine sound. High-quality sample rate converters provide flexible clock management while maintaining a full dynamic range of 144 dB.

Switchable Sample rate Converter (SRC)
The SRCs, which can be switched on via software, allow any digital input signal to be fed into the sound system regardless of sample rate and clock settings. Thus, even without separate synchronisation lines, any digital devices may be connected effortlessly.

Sound system with a +
The “+” version includes an extension that adds a word clock input and output and 2 MIDI inputs and outputs to the sound system. This expansion card is connected to the sound card via a ribbon cable and can therefore be freely positioned in one of the slots of the computer housing.

Expansion options
If several Clara D are installed in one computer, they are synchronised via the TDM SyncBus and appear as a combined sound system to an ASIO application. In the Beast Mixer, up to 32 audio signals can be exchanged with other Clara sound systems and thus also be integrated for the use with ASIO.

Fast and Reliable Multi-Client Treiber Suite
The continuously enhanced driver includes multi-client support for ASIO 2.2 as well as multichannel WDM audio / WASAPI with the lowest latencies in all software environments. This ensures that multiple audio applications can access the sound system simultaneously via the same or different driver interfaces.

Realtime Routing, Mixing and EQ
Each input signal of the sound system can be adjusted in volume and routed latency-free to any output. The BEAST DSP mixer also sums up to 64 signals to 8 different busses and plays them back on any number of outputs without delay. Furthermore, the BEAST Mixer adds playback signals from any DAW. All mix sums can be fed back to an application for recording. In each channel of the BEAST mixer there are 4 parametric EQ available for sonic processing.
