Description
_CALYPSO
NG 500 / 500 Series AD / DA Converter
CALYPSO is an audio interface designed to work in 500 series enclosure. It features state of art 8 channels of AD/DA conversion and perfectly integrates with ng500 chassis – _TITAN, through I.A.C. connector. Besides its very convenient integration with ng500 chassis, it still can be used in standard 500 series enclosure using two DB25 connectors.
MAIN FEATURES
Integration with I.A.C. (Internal Audio Connector) inside _TITAN chassis features almost wire-free setup
Standard 500 chassis support!
_CALYPSO is designed to work with standard 500 series enclosures, in that case DB-25 connectors on the front panel can be used to route audio signal to and from chassis.
DB-25 connectors can be also used to route audio signal from and to outboard gear!
Convinient Plug-in for I.A.C. recall and more!
_CALYPSO as all ng500 units is integrated with VST2/VST3/AAX/AU plug-ins. While using with a _TITAN it allows to manage I.A.C. connector in other words it manages input source to each module to be either back XLR “IN” socket, or I.A.C. direct connection to _CALYPSO. This gives You totally recallable solution to route your signal differently based on DAW session. For more information please refer to examples section below! Plug-in supports:
- Convinient metering,
- Full unit control,
- I.A.C. recall and management!
- Sample rate selection based on DAW session
- For more information please refer to manual!
LCD screen with metering!
Calypso LCD screen will allow You to see all configuration options and manage the unit.
- Channel numbers
- Metering – _CALYPSO supports very fast and accurate PPM metering
- Clip indicator.
- Currently active Sample Rate.
- Source of Sample Rate configuration
- Clock Source
- Clock sync status
- H-LINK – indication if DAW plug-in is connected to this particular hardware instance.
_CALYPSO used with _TITAN chassis features extremely convinient connectivity!
