for quick access to all features in one window. Also
provides full-screen real-time FFT display,
spectrogram "waterfall" display, oscilloscope, X-Y
plot and linear or polar phase analysis.
With a variety of I/O formats, mic preamps and
no-latency mixing and processing of live input, the
UltraLite-mk3 is a complete, portable "studio in a
box" when used with a Mac or Windows computer.

(TRS) analog outputs (with 24-bit 192 kHz
converters)
Six gold-plated, balanced quarter-inch (TRS)
■
analog inputs (with 24-bit 192 kHz converters)
One combo XLR/TRS mic/instrument input
■

■
10 inputs and 14 outputs
All UltraLite-mk3 inputs and outputs can be used
simultaneously, for a total of 10 inputs and 14
outputs when operating at sample rates up to
96 kHz:
Connection
Analog 24-bit 192 kHz on bal/unbal TRS
Mic preamps 24-bit 192 kHz on XLR/TRS
combo
SPDIF 24-bit 96kHz digital
Headphone output
Total
10
All inputs and outputs are discrete and can be
active simultaneously.
The headphone outputs can operate as an
independent output pair, or they can mirror any
other UltraLite-mk3 output pair, such as the main
outs.
Mic/guitar inputs with preamps
The two mic/instrument inputs (front panel and
rear panel) are equipped with preamps and
"combo" XLR/TRS jacks, which accept XLR
microphone inputs or quarter-inch guitar/
instruments inputs. Individual 48 volt phantom
power and a 20 dB pad can be supplied
independently to each mic input. The Precision
Digital Trim™ knobs on the front panel for each
mic/instrument input provide 60 dB of boost for
the XLR mic input and 32 dB of boost for the TRS
instrument input in precise 1 dB increments.
Analog
All six quarter-inch analog inputs are equipped
with 24-bit 192 kHz A/D converters. All eight
analog outputs have 24-bit 192 kHz D/A
converters. All audio is carried to the computer in a
24-bit data stream.
All ten analog outputs and six quarter-inch analog
inputs are on balanced TRS +4dB quarter-inch
jacks. All of these jacks can also accept unbalanced
plugs.
Precision Digital Trim™
All of the UltraLite-mk3's analog inputs are
Input Output
equipped with digitally controlled analog trims
6 10
that allow adjustments in 1 dB increments. The
2 -
mic/guitar input trims can be adjusted using front-
panel digital rotary encoders that provide feedback
2 2
in the front panel LCD with 60 dB of adjustment
- 2
for the mic input and 32 dB for the TRS input. All
analog inputs, including six rear-panel TRS analog
10 14
inputs, can be trimmed using the front panel LCD
or using the UltraLite-mk3's included CueMix FX
