These new products, MAVEN and USB.IO, promise to enhance the capabilities and flexibility for audio professionals.

MAVEN: Compact and Powerful DSP Engine

Building on the PRODIGY series, MAVEN features DirectOut’s robust DSP engine within a compact 1RU platform. This addition increases integration possibilities for sound engineers, system designers, and AV professionals, suitable for both fixed locations and mobile setups.

Features and Compatibility

MAVEN delivers the same power as the PRODIGY series and is fully compatible with the PRODIGY.MP. This compatibility increases flexibility while ensuring maximum reliability. MAVEN supports various audio network formats, including Dante, AVB/MILAN, RAVENNA/AES67, and SoundGrid, making it ideal for live sound, installation, remote production, studio recording, and broadcast applications.

CEO’s Statement

Jan Ehrlich, CEO of DirectOut, stated, “With MAVEN, we can now offer the unlimited DSP feature-set, uncompromised reliability, and flexibility initially introduced by PRODIGY.MP on a smaller footprint of just 1RU. Our customers’ demand for a more compact and even more granular platform in terms of software plugins and budget, has encouraged us to set new limits.”

USB.IO: Collaboration with RME

Alongside MAVEN, DirectOut has unveiled the USB.IO, developed in collaboration with RME. Visitors to Stand #C9464 at InfoComm can see both these innovative products and gain valuable insights from DirectOut experts.

Performance and Compatibility

The USB.IO module, based on RME’s USB 3.0 core and low latency technology, offers 128 channels I/O at standard sample rates (1FS) and supports a range from 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz. It can be used in Class Compliant mode or with RME drivers, expanding usability to any USB-C computer or handheld device. The inclusion of RME’s TotalMix FX software provides extensive mixing and routing options.

EARS Technology Integration

The USB.IO extends DirectOut’s unique EARS technology into any DAW used on a connected computer, enhancing the redundancy that engineers rely on in high-end venues globally. This module further solidifies DirectOut’s commitment to providing reliable and versatile audio solutions.

DirectOut’s new products, MAVEN and USB.IO, demonstrate the company’s dedication to innovation and meeting the evolving needs of audio professionals. These additions to the DirectOut family promise to enhance audio production capabilities and offer new levels of flexibility and reliability.
