Audiophile-grade mastering front-end playback conversionDangerous Music set the standard for audiophile-grade D/A Conversion in 2002 when they unleashed their Dangerous Monitor, which provided a new reference for mastering engineers. The DAC-ST, D-Box, and Source followed. Now the company’s Convert series raises the bar further with a new generation of D/A conversion which provides the sought-after qualities that have made Dangerous the choice for tracking, mixing, and mastering engineers worldwide, along with the latest technology in audio electronics. USB port for direct DAW connectivityDangerous Music designed the Convert-8 to integrate into your modern studio, however you have it configured. One feature you’ll especially appreciate is bi-directional USB, which lets you send and receive digital audio. Any signal you’ve jacked to the Convert-8’s AES-2 input, for example, can be concurrently routed to the USB path. This gives you the option of sending digital audio to your DAW from any digital source. Smartly designed, extremely useful, and incredible-soundingThe Convert-8 also rocks a custom volume pot you can use in two ways. Use it as a volume knob, connecting the L-R analog outputs directly to a pair of studio monitors. Turn it fully clockwise, and a switch engages a relay, removing the pot completely from the signal path. This lets you use the Convert-8 with an external monitor controller. Whether you have a home-based project studio, a mobile production rig, or a world-class commercial facility, the Dangerous Music Convert-8 will significantly enhance your sonics, and your workflow.
