DS2416 Digital Mixing Card with AX44 Expansion Interface.
Allows 4 channels of analog signal to be recorded (another ax44 can plug in
for 4 more, and another ds2416 with 2 more ax44s can be added for 16 channel
simultaneous recording.
I won't bore you with details that you can get off yamaha's website.
Yes its old, but it was ahead of its time and still kicks butt. I just
haven't recorded in a year, and I'm tired of the thing hanging around collecting
dust. It worked flawlessly last time it was used, but like all my Ebay
auctions, it is being sold ASIS.
Included: DS2416 Mixing card/Interface
AX44 Interface that includes 4 analog ins an outs and 2 mic preamps.
Original box for 2416
Ribbon cable that connects ax44 to 2416
NOT included
driver disk (which is downloadable all over the net)
support of any kind
a warranty. (the interface card is 6 to 8 years old. It is in cosmetically
very good condition, but buy at your own risk)
Here are pics of the actual card and its components. Starting the
bidding low, and I have NO RESERVE.. Good luck
This is material off of yamaha's site. I got it today (8-20-06) but its
probably dated. If you know what this is, you will buy it. If you don't
then why are you looking at approximately 7 year old computer hardware?
Good luck and happy bidding!
| DS2416 Digital Mixing Card: |
| At the heart of the DSP Factory is
the breakthrough DS2416 Digital Mixing Card with powerful recording,
mixing and sound processing engine built right in. |
| The DS2416's mixer provides the power
of the industry standard Yamaha 02R digital mixer - and much, much more
- on a desktop platform. This includes 24 channels of digital mixing
with a full range of on-board digital effects and dynamics processors,
along with everything else professionals need, including a generous 16
tracks of 32-bit hard disk recording. |
| A built-in audio-streaming engine
provides 8-tracks of simultaneous recording and 16 tracks playback of up
to 32-bit audio to and from the computer's disk drive. On-board effects
include 12 reverb types, 11 modulation types, 2 distortion types, 3
dynamics types, and 12 special combination types. |
| What's more, unlike most other audio
cards, the DS2416 runs on its own power and not the computer's CPU,
which ensures that all functions of the card are available
simultaneously, to provide a level of flexibility and performance
previously not possible. And certainly not at this price. |
| Easy installation and operation |
| The DS2416 Digital Mixing Card
supports the Windows® 95/98 and Macintosh® platforms and quickly
installs in the PCI card slot of a standard personal computer. Yamaha
supports the Windows® NT platform. |
| Operated from the CRT, keyboard and
mouse using appropriate control software available from the world's
leading developers of hard disk recording applications, the DS2416
system lets you either stay with the interface you're already familiar
with, or select one which best suits your personal composing, recording
and mixing style. |
| The DS2416 card has stereo digital
and 20-bit analog inputs and outputs which let you record and mix to and
from a wide range of digital and analog two-channel sources. Two DS2416
cards can be linked to create a larger system, and expansion hardware
components are separately available which permit multiple-channel
digital and analog input and output options. |
| All in all, the DS2416 is the most
convenient and affordable way for musicians, sound designers and audio
production professionals to add top-performance non-linear recording -
with its inherent creative advantages of easy editing and instant access
to audio data - to their systems. |
| In fact, it's a truly viable
replacement for conventional recorder, mixer and separate component
systems |
| FEATURES & CAPABILITIES: |
| Full scope of DS2416 capabilities
depends upon control software specifications. |
| MIXER |
