LAYLA 3G

12-in 12-out, 24|96 PCI Audio/MIDI interface

Layla3G is the third generation of our flagship PCI based multitrack digital recorder. The original Layla premiered seven years ago to critical acclaim, including a TEC award nomination. Since then we've been perfecting the art of making high quality recording products at affordable prices. Now you can get all of the features of the Layla24 for a new low price, and with dual mic preamps!!

Layla3G is the perfect center for any professional studio. It has 2 universal inputs with mic preamps, 6 balanced analog inputs, 8 balanced analog outputs, and a stereo headphone output. ADAT lightpipe, optical and coaxial S/PDIF, and MIDI are included as well. Layla3G comes with a 15' cable and PCI card that connects to the audio interface. Layla3G is compatible with PCI-X (3.3 or 5 volt) motherboards and Power Mac G5 computers, as well as older systems.

Software console for monitoring, metering, and setting levels Low-latency drivers support all major pro audio software: Low Latency ASIO 2.0 GSIF 2.0 (Gigastudio 3 w/ low latency MIDI) WDM kernel streaming mode CoreAudio & CoreMIDI Surround sound support: 5.1 & 7.1 output w/ delay management AC3, DTS, & WMA9 output over S/PDIF SuperChannel™ resource sharing: Split I/O between multiple applications PureWave™ mode for bit accurate digital I/O Specifications

Echo Digital Audio uses 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.
