With its 16 channels, the Clara D is the perfect entry to pure digital signal processing. HD audio quality with 24 Bit and sample resolutions of up to 192 kHz guarantee a pristine sound. High-quality sample rate converters ensure flexible clock management while maintaining a full dynamic range of 144 dB.

Precision Clock

The internal clocking of the Clara sound system has an amazingly low jitter of less than one nanosecond. This is beneficial to the audio quality of the system and that of any connected digital device. Often the clock of the Clara D is many times more precise than the internal clock of the connected device and thus makes the purchase of a separate clock generator unnecessary.

Switchable Samplerate Converter (SRC)

The SRCs, which can be switched on via software, allow any digital input signal to be fed into the sound system regardless of samplerate and clock settings. Thus, even without separate synchronization lines, any digital devices may be connected effortlessly.

Realtime Routing, Mixing and EQ

Each input signal of the sound system can be adjusted in volume and routed latency-free to any output. The BEAST DSP mixer also sums up to 64 signals to 8 different busses and plays them back on any number of outputs without delay. Furthermore, the BEAST Mixer adds playback signals from any DAW. All mix sums can be fed back to an application for recording. In each channel of the BEAST mixer there are 4 parametric EQ available for sonic processing.

Sound system with a +

The “+” version includes an extension that adds a word clock output and 2 MIDI inputs and outputs to the sound system. This expansion card is connected to the sound card via a ribbon cable and can therefore be freely positioned in one of the slots of the computer housing.

Expansion options

If several Clara D are installed in one computer, they are synchronized via the TDM SyncBus and appear as a combined sound system to an ASIO application. In the Beast Mixer, up to 32 audio signals can be exchanged with other Clara sound systems and thus also be integrated for the use with ASIO.
