The New Generation of the World-Renowned UltraLite!
Fantastic Audio Quality
The UltraLite mk5 features the renowned ESS Sabre32 DAC technology with the ES9026PRO DAC for a measured dynamic range of 125 dB and a THD + N of -114 dB. The fast drivers guarantee outstanding performance with extremely low latency.
Ultra-Low Latency
Optimized drivers for Mac and PC deliver performance with extremely low latency. With a high-performance DAW like Digital Performer, the UltraLite mk5 offers an amazing round-trip latency (RTL) of 2.4 ms (milliseconds) over USB (at 96 kHz with a host buffer of 32 samples).
Built for Studio and Stage
The UltraLite mk5 comes in a compact steel housing you can take anywhere. It’s equally suited for studio and stage use, with or without a computer. Connect all your studio gear and produce state-of-the-art recordings with your computer, or take it to your next gig to mix live without a computer.
40 Simultaneous Audio Channels
As an interface or mixer, the UltraLite mk5 offers 18 inputs and 22 outputs for a total of 40 independent I/O channels simultaneously. It features 2 mic/line/instrument inputs, 6 line inputs, 10 line outputs, headphone output, and optical 8-channel I/O. The optical ports alternatively support stereo TOSLink (optical S/PDIF).
iOS Compatibility
The UltraLite mk5 is USB Class Compliant and offers plug-and-play compatibility with iPad and other Apple iOS devices. Record directly on your iPad on the go or play backing tracks during a performance, perfectly mixed with your live inputs via the UltraLite mk5’s integrated mixer. Control everything via the CueMix 5 app on your iPad.
Loopback
The UltraLite mk5 provides loopback channels for your host computer or iOS device, allowing you to conveniently route computer output together with a mix of live inputs from the UltraLite mk5 back to the computer. You can record this or stream live online. Streaming and podcasting have never been easier—or sounded better!
Comfortable Stereo Headphones
The KH-238 delivers a full, balanced sound with rich bass response and clear highs. It offers plenty of volume while maintaining clean and precise stereo imaging. The softly padded, wide headband is length-adjustable with 12 steps per side for an optimal fit. For even more comfort, the ear cups are mounted on two-axis pivots. The thick, soft padding of the circumaural cups also provides good external noise isolation. The integrated volume control on the cable is always within reach, simplifying use with a PC or mp3 player. The 3.5 mm stereo jack offers excellent transmission quality, and a 6.3 mm stereo adapter is also included.
