TerraTec AudioSystem EWX24 Product Information

High Resolution Soundcard
AudioSystem EWX 24/96 - High Resolution Soundcard
With the AudioSystem EWX 24/96 TerraTec breaks new ground in the classical soundcard market with a
product utilising progressive 24Bit / 96kHz technology.
Based on the award winning EWS88 MT/D technology you get the pleasure of uncompromised support for
any audio software with ASIO 2.0, GSIF (GigaSampler) and DirectSound drivers. Thanks to the switch
design and the new 24Bit/96kHz converter technology, a signal to noise ratio of more than 100 dB/A is
reached - satisfying the highest demands. To gain the best high-end audio performance the standard
soundcard (gamer) characteristics like hardware 3D acceleration or the dreaded sample rate conversion
(SRC) have been deliberately left out.
In addition to the analog stereo In and Outputs (cinch!) there is an optical digital In and Output (TOS link)
for all standard formats up to 24Bit und 96kHz at your disposal. These operate without any sample rate
conversion and thereby deliver a 1:1 (bit-true) perfect recording. And DTS or AC3 streams can also be
transfered in the so-called non-audio mode over the digital Out from a software DVD- player to an external
Dolby-Digital-receiver. The digital Input on the EWX 24/96 also allows itself to be configured so that a
digital audio Out (TTL) from a CD drive can be connected.
And to facilitate a well rounded impression of the powerful abilities of the EWX 24/96, we have taken care
to include a comprehensive software packet to carry you far into your new music life. Create and edit
recordings with Steinbergs praised sample editor WaveLab Lite and then convert them into MP3 files with
Musicmatch Jukebox - or arrange complete songs professionally using Emagics audio/MIDI sequencer
MicroLogic Fun – just to name a few possible applications.
The real heavy hitter is without a doubt "GigaSampler LE" from Nemesys and turns your system into a full
value sampler with support for countless sounds in GIG, WAV and AKAI format! What makes it so special:
the sounds are played directly from the hard drive. That way the samplers's memory capacity is immense.
Alone for the Giga-Piano there is close to 1 GB (Gigabyte!) of sound material, which you – thanks to the
direct hardware support via the GSIF driver – can play practically live!
Beside Arturia's Storm - in a special EWX 24/96 edition – awaits the FruityLoops Express, an extremely
intuitive, easy to use compositions tool inclusive drum-computer, synthesizer and effects processor.
