The Echo AudioFire2 is an extremely small FireWire audio interface that's packed with lots of features. AudioFire2 has two audio channels with fully balanced I/O, headphone jack with volume control, S/PDIF I/O, and MIDI I/O, all in a 3.5" x 4.25" interface.
Power is provided directly from the FireWire bus or from the supplied power source. MIDI and S/PDIF are available via a removable dongle for compact flexibility. With the AudioFire2 you can record 24 bit 96kHz audio with low latency monitoring on any Windows XP or Mac OS X computer (desktop or notebook) with a FireWire port.
Echo Digital Audio is proud to use only specifications of production units. While other companies quote specs of their converters alone in laboratory settings, the numbers you see on this page represent the actual unit in your hands. Since people often rely heavily on specs when deciding what gear to buy, we like to bring you numbers that really mean something.
