The S8 lets your signals be in two places at once. It's an 8-channel splitter in a 1U rackmount enclosure, with one direct output and one transformer-isolated output per channel. The passive design doesn't require power, but the direct outputs will pass phantom power for use with active microphones. Each channel also features a switchable ground lift on every channel to reduce noise due to ground loops, and an input pad to accommodate line level sources. When two outputs are better than one, use the S8 to connect to both the front-of-house and monitor mixers, for creative parallel processing, or to record safety tracks at lower levels in case of clipping. Need more outputs per channel? Check out the S8-3Way.
