Speck Electronics via Fader 16  From Speck

Outboard Fader System designed to connect your 500-Series Units and audio gear. 

Speck Electronics

Manufacturer's Description from Speck

When you need Faders but don't really need a console.

The via Fader is a brand new way to connect your 500 series racks and audio gear. This product is more than just 10 or 16 slide faders. Each fader channel has the necessary input and output electronics to allow the via Fader to interface to any balanced, unbalanced, transformer, or transformer-less line level signal. But most importantly... no additional mixer or audio interface is required.

With its clean, uncluttered layout, the via Fader can be placed in a convenient desktop location or installed in your 19" rack. This gives you more choices when it comes to the studio layout.

 

Not exclusively for 500 rack systems, the via Fader can be used for external DAW summing or as a line mixer for synths and samplers. In many cases, the via Fader can eliminate the need for a mixing console in your studio. The four via Fader models give you lots of possibilities.

 

Features 

 ♦ Sixteen - 100mm Fader channels.

 ♦ All fader channels have active-balanced inputs and outputs on DB25 style connectors.

 ♦ 100% analog signal path.

 ♦ Ultra-low distortion transparent signal path with +28dBu maximum input and output.

 ♦ 10dB gain boost select available for each fader channel.

 ♦ Two mounting choices: Place on your desktop or install in a standard 19" rack.

 ♦ 120V or 230V external power supply included.
