NAMM: Patch Analog Signals with Digital Control

(Click for a close-up)

Violet Audio's UPM88 is a new breed of patch matrix hardware that represents a new approach to the marriage of the latest technology and audio signal integrity. It features a combination of software and hardware designed to simplify the implementation of small, medium and large-scale audio routing environments.

Whether for complex studio matrix design or a modest patching solution for smaller setups,the UPM88 provides a new level of freedom and flexibility. Your pure analog audio patching system can be built and controlled from either a simple matrix front panel switch matrix, or via the onscreen computer software matrix GUI (graphical user interface) via a USB connection.

All audio routing through the UPM88 is handled using the latest high-quality Analog Devices multiplexer chips available. The audio signal never leaves the analog domain, is not amplified, or driven in any way. The UPM88 has true whisper quiet 'all analog circuitry', and carries the full analog signal between patching destinations.

Features:

• Remotely controlled patchbay matrix (USB required)
• Analog multiplexer technology
• Pure analog signal path
• Digital switching via front panel or USB
• 8 inputs, 8 detinations
• System link connector pins (max 2 x units)
• XLR balanced connections
• RTAS plug-in remote control under development

MSRP is $2095.
