The unit provides 8 line inputs and 8 line outputs on DB-25 connectors, a 128-channel by 64-bus mixer, and resolution support up to 192 kHz, with the option to add up to 8 channels of ULN-R mic preamps in 4-channel blocks.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA Mobile Studio in One Rack Space\u003c\/h3\u003e\nField work — live concert tracking, remote sessions, production on the road — calls for gear that fits in one case and doesn't depend on mains power. The LIO-8 mkIV closes the entire signal chain into a single rack space, stays lightweight, and can run directly from DC power (16-30V), removing the need to carry a mains supply. USB-C class-compliant connectivity means it connects to Mac, iPhone, iPad, Windows 10+, or Linux without installing a driver, cutting setup time before a session down to almost nothing.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA Monitor Controller Built Into the Converter\u003c\/h3\u003e\nImmersive mix and mastering sessions usually call for a dedicated monitor controller as a separate rack unit. The LIO-8 mkIV integrates a full multi-source, multi-destination controller supporting up to 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos, analog gain control, and relay hard mutes directly inside the converter. DSP\/FPGA processing runs at zero added latency, and a bundle of over 100 plug-ins lets an engineer build EQ, compression, and other processing into the monitor path without loading the host computer or introducing delay in the listening chain.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 line inputs and 8 line outputs on DB-25 connectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e128-channel mixer with 64 busses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConversion resolution up to 192 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonitor controller up to 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos with relay hard mute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpandable to 8 channels of ULN-R preamps in 4-channel blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMHLink for chaining Metric Halo units with no added latency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDC power 16-30V, single rack space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel number: 000-50047\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLine I\/O: 8 x 8 on DB-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComputer connection: USB-C, driverless class compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolution: 44.1-192 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMixer: 128 channels x 64 busses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessing: hybrid DSP\/FPGA engine, 100+ zero-latency plug-ins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI I\/O: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: DC 16-30V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approx. 2.7 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Metric Halo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54336243663185,"sku":"46181","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/MetricHaloLIO-8mkIV1.jpg?v=1784569315","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de-fr\/products\/metric-halo-lio-8-mkiv","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
