Echo MiaMidi

If you're serious about digital audio, you shouldn't settle for anything less than a truly professional audio interface.... and now with Echo MiaMidi you don't have to. Echo MiaMidi offers a pair of balanced 1/4 inch analog inputs and outputs and operates at the +4dBu levels used by pro-audio gear. It combines this with 24-bit/96kHz converters and 106 dB of dynamic range for the quality your recordings deserve. Also included is an S/PDIF digital audio interface for connecting to other digital audio equipment, and MIDI input/output jacks on a custom molded cable.

A unique feature of Echo MiaMidi is the use of "virtual" outputs. Echo MiaMidi appears to software as if it has eight separate outputs, which are digitally mixed down to the physical outputs using Echo MiaMidi's "console" software and its on-board DSP. This makes Echo MiaMidi compatible with all popular multi-track software. And, with Echo MiaMidi's "multi-client" drivers, more than one application (such as an editor and software synth) can be playing back through Echo MiaMidi at the same time.

Please note that the MIDI functions of MiaMIDI only work under Windows ME/2000/XP/Vista and Mac OS X.
