iConnectivity PlayAUDIO12 USB Audio and MIDI Interface

The iConnectivity PlayAUDIO12 is a USB audio interface designed to provide seamless switching between two computer setups for musicians, bands, and audio engineers in concert venues and live stage applications. It supports resolutions up to 24-bit / 96 kHz and is class compliant. By offering two USB Type-B ports for simultaneous connection of two computers, it enables easy system redundancy. Switching can be done manually via the touchscreen LCD or a footswitch connected to the Control In port, or automatically for instant use of a backup system.

The PlayAUDIO12 features ten balanced mono 1/4" TRS outputs and one stereo 1/4" TRS headphone jack. A front-panel USB Type-A port allows for easy connection of keyboard controllers and sound modules. MIDI is supported via USB and Ethernet connectivity. MIDI and audio routing is preserved when switching between computers.

The PlayAUDIO12 ships with a power supply, one USB Type-A to USB Type-B cable, Ableton Live 9 Lite, and a collection of Big Fish Audio samples and loops.
