Thunderbolt Audio Interface – Thunderbolt to USB-C Adaptor Included – Windows (PCI Card Included) – Mac (Intel Only). With the VRS8, Slate Digital delivers a Thunderbolt audio interface with eight Ultra Linear VMS One microphone preamps, with the help of which slate microphone and preamp emulations can be used on each input. The integrated LLN (Low Latency Native) hard-wired converter chipset impresses with 0.7 milliseconds latency at 96k (32 sample buffers), while “real-time auditioning” with effects is possible at any time. Combined with AKM mastering-quality converters, 124dB dynamic range on all inputs, XTC clocking technology including four temperature-compensated crystal oscillators, and Native MIDI I/O for accurate MIDI timing, the VRS8 is a high-quality audio interface at an affordable price. Furthermore, a full licence for Slate’s Virtual Preamp Collection software is provided, allowing you to integrate various software preamps. Also on board is a 1-year licence for the Everything Bundle, so you can test Slate’s plug-ins extensively. The professional ensemble is rounded off by the intuitive design, two headphone outputs and the practical 19 housing for rack applications. Slate Digital VRS8 Overview.
