Your Portal to the Digital Domain
The FCA Series allows you to converse with your computer in a language it understands - digital. When you connect line-level devices, such as synthesizers or the outputs of an audio mixer to the FCA1616, internal 24-bit A/D (Analog to Digital) converters then swing into action, turning the audio signal into digital data. Now you can record and play back your masterpiece through a pair of active studio monitors or listen in the privacy of your favorite headphones.
Getting Connected
On the rear panels of the FCA1616 and FCA610, you'll find ports for FireWire and USB 2.0. Inputs are balanced 1/4" jacks that accept a wide range of line-level devices. Outputs accept both balanced and unbalanced 1/4" connections. The two headphones jacks are conveniently located on the front panel, with a dedicated volume control.
