The Digimax features Eight Dual Servo Mic Preamplifiers with two Direct Inputs for instruments. Each channel also features a proprietary Dual Domain limiter to protect the A/D converters from digital clipping. The Digimax also boasts up to 24 simultaneous outputs including: 8 channels of adat lightpipe, 8 channels of AES/EBU or S/PDIF and 8 channels of balanced analog TRS. The retail price of the new Digimax will remain the same at $1699.95. A new digital breakout cable will be available for $29.95 that will allow the Digimax 96kHz to interface directly with Digidesign's 192 I/O Interface.
