High-performance 24-bit/192kHz A-D and D-A conversion with 119dB dynamic range A-D and 121dB dynamic range D-A (A-Weighted)
Seamless multi-platform workflow enables switching between different DAWs in seconds, using the front panel or control software
Two Red Evolution remote-controllable mic preamps provide up to 63dB of ultra- clean gain, with phantom power, high-pass filter, phase reverse and Air mode
Latest implementation of Thunderbolt 3 ultra-low-latency drivers for Mac and PC provide the flexibility to use DAW plug-ins in real-time
Dual Thunderbolt ports as standard enable daisy-chaining of devices such as plug-in accelerators, hard drives and external 4K displays
Twin mini-DigiLink ports provide connectivity directly to Pro Tools | HD cards, with no need for device expansion
Dual Dante ports enable connection to the industry standard Audio-over-IP protocol, for easy expansion and interoperability with other digital devices
Monitor control supports mono, stereo and multi- channel monitoring environments up to 10 channels, including 7.1.2
Extensive analogue I/O provided by eight line inputs and outputs on DB25; independent L/R monitor outputs; independent Red Evolution mic preamps, plus two stereo headphones outputs
Three LCDs provide highly accurate level metering for any input or output block, as well as for main monitor and headphone outputs
RedNet Control allows quick setup of complex monitoring and routing configurations, and control of the preamps remotely
High-fidelity dual headphone outputs are powerful enough to deliver loud audio on high-impedance headphones
Dual front-panel instrument connections ensure immediate access to instrument inputs, even when racked
New Windows 10 Thunderbolt drivers make Red 8Line compatible with PC-based audio systems
Focusrite software bundle includes the Brainworx bx_console Focusrite SC channel strip from the original Focusrite Studio Console, plus Red 2 and Red 3 EQ and Compression plug-ins, which accurately reproduce the sonic qualities of the original Red hardware. Focusrite Plug-in Collective membership provides access to frequent free downloads from the most innovative music software brands
