ULN-8 MkIV Digital Audio Processor

The ULN-8 3d is an eight-channel mastering, mixing, and recording interface with high quality preamplifiers as well as A/D D/A converters. It also includes network interconnectivity with modular expansion of up to 128 inputs with exceptionally low latency and ultra-high bandwidth audio, clock and data over gigabit ethernet through MH link. 

The third generation upgrades include these features:

• MH EdgeBus: Ultra-high-bandwidth programmable and pluggable modular audio expansion slot. Allows you to effortlessly extend your system to be exactly the interface you need at any given moment
• MH Console: Modern, 64-bit application to control your entire system with a simple, lightning fast and flexible routing model and a redeisgned interface
• MH Mixer: 128 input x 64 bus multi-box unified zero-latency mixer
• MH MonitorControl: Integrated surround capable monitor controller with system processing capability. Includes Analog Domain level control on ULN-8/LIO-8 hardware
• MH Record: 128 input ultra-reliable multitrack recorder with deep hardware integration
• MH DSP Engine: Enhanced processing power and massive memory in the hardware. All third gen hardware includes the +DSP license with over a hundred plug-ins and the unique Metric Halo Graph environment
• MH Link Audio: Direct Ethernet CoreAudio driver (with support for up to 128 channels of I/O @ 192k)
• USB Audio: USB-C Class Audio Interface

By implementing all the functions of a complete audio front end in a single package, the ULN-8 3d provides power and quality in a lightweight, low-power consumption, single RU hardware unit. This integration allows for reductions in cabling, weight, power consumption, and cost, while not harming the performance. 

With everything you need to record, mix, process, and master audio (just add your DAW of choice and transducers), the ULN-8 3d is your one-stop solution for recording, editing, mixing and mastering suites. The unit’s standalone operation and standard AES and analog interface allow you to use it as the Audio Front End and Monitor Controller for Pro Tools, standalone, or PC-based recording systems. 

The ULN-8 3d offers archival quality conversion at multi-channel prices. It's  a complete mastering toolkit with transparent converters and transparent reciprocal processing. The ULN-8 provides a load-in, monitoring and processing interface for any mastering suite. Eight channels of conversion and AES interfacing allow for multiple analog and digital processing signal chains as well as monitoring and processing in surround. If more analog processing chains are required, additional ULN-8 3ds may be added to a system. 

The same quality standards apply to the preamps provided for the ULN-8 3d. The ULN-8 3d are boutique pres that just don’t require extra power, weight or cabling to be used.  The ULN-8 3d can also be combined with 2882 and ULN-2 units in a complete recording system. 

The integrated mixer in the ULN-8 3d is a complete digital console with mono to 7.1 bus support, monitor control section, instantiable delay-compensated processing with full delay-compensated send and return support in the mixer. Not only can you provide monitor mixes for performers with essentially zero latency, you can also mix the show live for an immediate stereo reference. 

At mixdown time, utilize the acclaimed mixing and processing engine in the ULN-8 3d as your ultra-high-quality digital outboard summing system. Or, if you are an analog-summing aficionado, you can use the exceptional converters in the ULN-8 3d to drive your analog summing bus and capture the results or use its built-in analog summing bus.
