The Mobile I/O 2882 is a best in class FireWire interface that provides 18 inputs and 20 outputs of comprehensive, simultaneous I/O. The 2882+DSP is the only unit in its class with an on-board processing chip, allowing you to use world renowned Metric Halo signal processing effects without sacrificing your computer's processing power.This one rack space audio interface has the ability to run entirely from the FireWire bus of a laptop computer or from any DC power source (9V-30V), making it truly and completely mobile.

All Mobile I/Os have a SHARC DSP chip onboard that powers the versatile MIOConsole 80bit WIDE mixer, router, and control application. Use MIOConsole to route any input to any output, giving you more powerful mixing possibilities than any unit on the market. All channels have 24 bit, 96kHz converters, making this the perfect tool for digital recording. Add even more power to your rig with +DSP, Metric Halo's revolutionary approach to taking your processing plugins with you to rehearsals, the big show, or to the studio.
