Product Title: Merging+HAPI Network Audio Converter
Product Description: The MERGING+HAPI networked audio converter is a popular and economical solution for local stageboxes or studio rack units, introducing users to the world of RAVENNA/AES67. The new Hapi MKII features the powerful ZMAN processor, allowing for performance upgrades and compatibility with interface cards from the original Hapi and Horus products. Recent introduction of the ADA8S and ADA8P cards improved mic-pre inputs and doubled the analog I/O count to 16 in/16 out in DSD. With Merging's range of audio device options, Hapi is an ideal interface for any DAW regardless of operating system.
