ART Debuts the DIO AD/DA Converter
February 17, 2000
Applied Research & Technology (ART) debuts its
AD/DA converter, the DIO.
The DIO offers full 24-bit conversion and features sample rates from
44.1kHz to 96kHz. The DIO also features intelligent synchronization allowing
for automatic sync with outboard equipment. ART integrates this with their
trademark tube technology. The ART tube warmth circuit offers the addition
of a dual triode tube allowing the AD/DA signal path to vary from clean
to warm. This new stereo unit provides superior audio dynamic range in
the same compact package as ART's best selling Tube MP and Single Channel
Tube Compressor.
The DIO can be used in a variety of applications, including recording,
project, and home studios, and will help eliminate system noise in any
computer based workstation. The DIO features ¼" stereo analog
in and out, 24-bit S/PDIF digital I/O, switchable 44.1, 48, 88.2, and
96kHz sample rates, and variable tube character control that will add
warmth and musicality to the typically "sterile" digital signals
of hard disk recordings.
ART's DIO will have a suggested retail price of $249.00.
