-
Lightweight and robust construction - you can take the Traveler mk3 with you wherever you go!
-
Compact (375 x 228 mm) - fits easily into a backpack, suitcase, laptop bag or under any laptop.
-
Computer-powered* - no power supply required, for total recording freedom.
-
28 inputs / 30 outputs (at 44.1/48 kHz)
-
No sharing of inputs in the Traveler-mk3. Mic inputs, TRS jacks, AES/EBU and S/PDIF digital connectors and headphone output are all managed separately.
-
4 Combo connectors, mixed high impedance 6.35 mm jack / low impedance XLR mic, with highly transparent preamps, phantom power, pad and high gain.
-
Clip protection on mic/guitar inputs, a limiter prevents digital clipping and distortion from input level overload (up to +12dB above 0dB FS).
-
Separate 48-volt phantom powering on each mic input for mixing dynamic and condenser mics.
-
4 analogue 24-bit/192 kHz inputs and 8 outputs, on balanced 6.35 mm TRS jacks compatible with unbalanced.
-
Digital Precision Trim™ - digitally controlled analogue attenuators, allowing input gain adjustment in 1dB steps on all analogue inputs (Combo mic/guitar inputs and 6.35mm TRS line inputs). You can fine-tune the balance of your analogue inputs, and record/recall as many trim configurations as you like, on all inputs.
-
High-resolution recording: the Traveler-mk3 can operate at all sampling frequencies on all analogue inputs/outputs, up to 192 kHz.
-
Highly flexible optical input/output, 2 x 2 optical ports (input/output), switchable to ADAT (16 channels), S-MUX (8 channels at 96 kHz) or TOSLink (2 x stereo) mode. Independent selection on each connector.
-
CueMix FX™ - integrated, 28-input/16-bus, highly flexible digital console incorporating DSP effects(including Classic Reverb, working in send/return, or vintage EQ and compressor modelling, on every input and output.
-
With CueMix FX, you can create several different monitor mixes for the main outputs and headphones. You can also configure send/return loops for external devices, without latency.
-
Sophisticated audio signal analysis tools - CueMix FX software offers real-time FFT and spectrogram ('waterfall') visualisations for analysis of individual signals or complete mixes.
-
Front panel control - you can access any of the Traveler-mk3's mix parameters directly from the front panel.
-
Stand-alone operation - programme your mixes in the studio, then take the Traveler-mk3 with you to your gig - no need for a computer. Simply power the Traveler-mk3 with the supplied mains adapter. Need to change a parameter value? Do it on the spot, using the backlit LCD display and front panel controls.
-
With sample-accurate MIDI timing, connect a MIDI controller and/or expander without the need for an additional interface. MIDI input/output is sample-accurate if supported by the host software.
-
As your needs grow, you can add other interfaces to the Traveler-mk3 to increase the number of inputs/outputs.
-
Compatible with the 8pre mic input expander - which connects to the Traveler-mk3 via an optical port, offering 8 additional mic inputs, working at sample rates up to 96 kHz, and perfectly integrated into the Traveler-mk3's CueMix FX mixing environment.
-
Eight analogue outputs on 6.35 mm TRS jacks, balanced compatible with unbalanced, 24-bit/192 kHz conversion
-
Front-panel headphone socket with independent volume control.
-
AES/EBU stereo input/output, 24 bit/96 kHz
-
S/PDIF stereo input/output, 24 bit/96 kHz
-
Wordclock input/output
-
Built-in SMPTE synchronisation functions - synchronisation and timecode generation. Synchronises directly to Digital Performer timecode, Logic, Cubase, Nuendo and other compatible software without additional dedicated synchronisers.
-
Plug-and-play operation with your Mac or PC via FireWire. Supplied with drivers for Mac OS and Windows, in ASIO, WDM, Core Audio and Core MIDI formats.
-
Compatible with all popular Mac and Windows audio software. 100% compatible with the native processing built into today's audio software.
-
Includes AudioDesk 3, a full-featured, sample-accurate audio workstation software for Mac OS X, with 32-bit real-time recording, editing, playback, mixing, processing and effects, and sample-accurate synchronisation.
-
Plug-and-play operation with your Mac or PC via FireWire - two FireWire 400 ports let you daisy-chain multiple devices without a hub. Compatible with a FireWire 800 port, via a simple adapter or FW400-to-800 cable.
-
Front panel volume control; stereo, quadraphonic, 6.1 and 7.1 listening formats available, as well as user-customisable surround configurations.
-
Level meters or activity LEDs on all analogue, digital and MIDI inputs/outputs, plus SMPTE Sync, Tach and Lock function LEDs.
-
Exhaustive level display: the front-panel LCD screen houses vertical meters, by connector bank (8 channels at a time), or horizontal meters, which are more accurate because they are longer, for each separate channel. The different banks of meters are easily accessible via the dedicated METERS rotary encoder on the front panel.
-
Dedicated clock status LEDs on the front panel.
-
* FireWire bus power supply requires a 6 pin FireWire port, which is not suitable.
