Overview
The iBox 48-TA shares the stunning, sculpted look of the latest generation Soundscape units: Soundscape 32, Soundscape 16, Apogee I/O 896 and other new iBox models. And, just as you would expect from Sydec Audio Engineering, it combines superlative sonic quality with the legendary Soundscape build quality.

Yet, there is a lot more to this unit than great looks and great sound… with a TDM expansion port, three TDIF ports and twenty-four balanced analogue inputs and outputs, it takes the iBox concept to a new level of versatility:

Soundscape digital audio workstation users can connect the TDIF ports to their Soundscape 32, Soundscape 16, R.Ed or SSHDR1-Plus system for analogue/TDIF conversion.
PC native system users can connect the TDM expansion port to a Mixpander for the ultimate input, output, DSP-powered mixing and processing solution (“Mixpander Bundle”), or the TDIF ports to their Mixtreme or Mixtreme 192 card(s). For instance, the “Mixtreme Power Pak 24” combines two Mixtreme 192 and one iBox 48-TA.
When the expansion port is linked to a Mixpander, the TDIF ports may also be used for connection to a second iBox. For instance, two iBox 48-TA could be linked via TDIF to provide 48 analogue inputs and outputs to and from a single Mixpander. Alternatively, the TDIF ports can be used to connect other units including:
- The Apogee I/O 896 for ADAT, AES/EBU or extra analogue connectivity with Apogee AD/DA conversion.
- The Soundscape ADDA 2408-R, jointly designed by Digital Audio Denmark and Sydec Audio Engineering, featuring eight high-quality mic preamps with digitally controlled analogue gain and remote control from the software.
- An iBox 2-Mic, iBox 2-Line, iBox 8-Line or iBox 4-AES.
And of course, the appeal of the iBox 48-TA is not limited to Soundscape users. Its front panel controls allow it to be used as an audio converter for any other equipment compatible with either one of its supported formats.
