Dual Independent Headphone Monitoring Output: Equipped with two independent Headphone Output ports, allowing recording engineers and performers to monitor simultaneously and independently control monitoring content via the software mixer.
-
Zero-Latency Hardware Monitoring and Mixing Control: Provides a powerful software control center with a built-in 12-channel input mixer, 8-channel DAW channels, and 6-channel LoopBack virtual channels, enabling complex zero-latency monitoring routing and mixing, making it a powerful tool for live streaming and podcast production.
-
High-Resolution Recording Specifications: Utilizes a high-performance XMOS chip, supporting high-resolution audio recording and playback from 44.1kHz/24bit up to 96kHz/24bit, capturing every sound detail.
-
Professional Digital Expansion: Features two optical outputs (ADAT/S/PDIF) and an independent Word Clock output, allowing easy integration into larger recording systems and ensuring the stability of multi-device synchronization.
-
LNRD Low-Noise Reference Voltage Module: Topping's exclusive LNRD technology ensures a clean and stable power supply, enabling the ADC/DAC's Dynamic Range (DNR) to reach 115dB and minimizing distortion.
Ultra-Linear Mic Preamps
- Equipped with eight Topping self-developed Mic Preamps, designed specifically for capturing clean, uncolored audio.
- Equivalent Input Noise (EIN) as low as -130.5dBu, offering outstanding performance among products in its class and effectively suppressing background hiss.
- Each input supports independent +48V Phantom Power, capable of simultaneously driving multiple Condenser microphones or active DI boxes.
- The ultra-linear design ensures signal integrity from input to output, providing transparent, faithful sound reproduction.
NFCA-LE Professional Headphone Amplifier
- NFCA-LE headphone amplification technology transplanted from Topping's Hi-Fi product line, providing powerful output power of 580mW x 2 (@32Ω).
- Features ultra-low noise of 0.9uVrms and an Output Impedance of only 1 Ohm, perfectly matching high-sensitivity IEMs or high-impedance studio headphones.
- Offers two-stage gain adjustment, up to +17dBu, ensuring any headphones can achieve sufficient volume and dynamics.
- Dual Headphone Output design allows two users to perform independent monitoring simultaneously, improving collaboration efficiency.
Zero-Latency Hardware Monitoring and Independent Mixing Control
- Achieves powerful zero-latency hardware monitoring capabilities through the dedicated Topping Control Center software.
- Built-in flexible digital mixer, including 12 input channels, 8 DAW channels, and 6 LoopBack virtual channels.
- The LoopBack function can mix internal computer audio (e.g., games, background music) with microphone input, making it an ideal choice for streamers and online educators.
- Allows setting independent mix ratios for different outputs (main output, Headphone Output) to meet complex monitoring needs.
Digital Expansion and Clock Synchronization (ADAT & Clock I/O)
- Equipped with two optical outputs, supporting S/PDIF and ADAT formats, allowing easy connection to external digital devices.
- In ADAT mode, it can additionally transmit 8 channels, expanding the system's output capabilities.
- Features an independent Word Clock output, which can act as a master clock to synchronize multiple digital devices, ensuring the stability of the recording system.
