The Focusrite Clarett 8PreX ThunderboltDefinition:
A computer interface port or cable that multiplexes PCIe and DisplayPort data lines into two serial signals (along with DC power), which is then demultiplexed into separate PCIe and DisplayPort ports by the Thunderbolt controllers at receiving devices. audio interfaceDefinition:
A device to convert audio signals into digital code suitable for use by a computer; typically communication occurs through a port such as USB, Thunderbolt, FireWire, etc. offers 26 inputs and 28 outputs, including 8 analogDefinition:
A signal that is continuous in nature, as opposed to being defined as a series of discrete numbers (or elements) as found in digital signals; electrically "analogous" to an acoustical signal in the air. inputs, 10 analog outputs, stereoDefinition:
A two channel signal simulating a sound space, typically played through two speakers. S/PDIFDefinition:
(Sony/Philips Digital Interconnect Format) A protocol for a stereo digital audio connection, based on AES3, that uses coaxial cable or TOSlink optical cables. I/ODefinition:

A signal or data expressed as series of the digits 0 and 1, typically represented by values of a physical quantity such as voltage or magnetic polarization. mic pre or an external D/A for additional line outputs. The 2RU rack-mount unit combines 8 Clarett mic preamps with class-leading dynamic rangeDefinition:
1. Range in dB between a device's noise floor and its maximum available headroom. 2. The difference between the maximum and minimum volume levels that occur in a musical performance. conversion and extraordinarily low round-trip latencyDefinition:
The amount of delay a signal, data, sound, video, or control signal acquires within a device, system, or long-distance connection. – so low that plugins can be used, in real time, while monitoring recordings through the DAWDefinition:
DAW (Digital Audio Workstation): A computer program or stand-alone device that provides digital audio recording, editing, and mixing..
