RUBIX 44
Roland Rubix Audio Interfaces
Roland has launched the Rubix line of audio interfaces for Mac , PC , and iPad . The new audio interface line consists of the Rubix 22 , 24 , and 44 . Each multi-platform interface is engineered to have extremely low noise from input to output .
The interfaces feature transparent , low noise mic preamps and support for audio resolutions up to 24-bit / 192 kHz . Indicators show the presence of a good signal or overloading input , even from a distance . Extensive shielding and ground lifts help ensure clean , quiet operation in a variety of venues , and the compact metal construction means Rubix can perform in most environments .
The Rubix 22 is a 2-in / 2-out model with dual mic preamps . When coupled with an iPad , it creates a portable recording or performance rig . Rubix 24 adds two extra outputs and a hardware compressor / limiter for controlling highly dynamic sources . Rubix 44 adds two additional mic preamps for a total of four inputs and four outputs .

Dynaudio M5P Evidence Monitoring System
Dynaudio has launched the M5P Evidence passive floor-standing studio monitors , specifically designed for mastering applications .
The M5P Evidence is the first studio monitor to feature Dynaudio Directivity Control ( DDC ), which reduces reflections from floors and ceilings . DDC builds on a vertical , symmetrical drive unit array and an elaborate series of crossovers to create a controlled sound radiation . With two 28 mm tweeters , two 5-in . mid-range drivers , and four 7-in . woofers per loudspeaker , each drive unit complements its counterpart with regard to frequency response and phase relationship in such a way that an accurate and defined sound radiation characteristic is achieved . The energy radiated to the room ’ s floor and ceiling is also reduced by approximately 75 per cent , according to the company , making the M5P less roomdependent and its positioning less critical .
