The Pulse16 AE is a 1U 19-inch rackmount format AD/DA box with premium ESS converters that provide up to 32-bit 192 kHz conversion. On the front panel, the dual display system gives you a complete I/O metering overview, while the RemoteFish desktop software lets you manage routing and adjust levels.
With 16 TRS inputs and 16 outputs, you have enough channels to route a wide range of signals in and out of your DAW. Whether you plan to do hybrid mixing with a small analogue console or simply use a range of hardware units as software inserts, the Pulse16 AE can be configured to suit your particular workflow.
On the digital side, the Pulse16 AE offers a bank of four ADAT inputs and four outputs, which can be configured for up to 32 channels at 48 kHz, 16 channels at 96 kHz (SMUX2), or 8 channels at 192 kHz (SMUX4). This allows the Pulse16 AE to be used as a high-quality channel splitter for either analogue or ADAT input signals.
Overall, the versatility of the Pulse16 AE is undeniable, with professional-grade conversion, easy-to-use management software, and optional DSP expansion via the DSP stick port. What’s more, there is a built-in headphone preamplifier that gives you crystal clear monitoring when you need it.
