Combining ten inputs, ten outputs, and eight VS
PREAMPS with transparent 24-bit/192 kHz audio quality, the Roland
OCTA-CAPTURE sets a new standard for portable USB 2.0 audio interfaces.
High-level audio production is made possible with this fusion of premium
components, Roland-quality engineering, and proprietary preamp and
streaming technology. OCTA-CAPTURE is not only a great interface for
multi-channel computer-based production, but also a perfect solution for
expanding the I/O capability of the V-STUDIO™ 700 and V-STUDIO™ 100.
Eight Premium Mic Preamps
OCTA-CAPTURE boasts eight premium-grade digitally controlled mic preamps
(VS PREAMPS), built with the same high-grade components as the preamps
in the V-STUDIO 700 and M-400 V-Mixer. Eight XLR inputs are provided for
the preamps, plus independent phantom power, low-cut filter, phase
invert, and digital compression for each channel.
Auto Input Level Adjustment
Simply activate the AUTO-SENS feature with the push of a button, play
your connected instruments, and OCTA-CAPTURE automatically sets the
ideal recording level for each input. It's great for quick, fail-safe
audio capture when recording either a fully mic'd drum kit or an entire
band.
Extreme Low-Latency Driver
OCTA-CAPTURE offers stability and industry-leading low-latency USB
performance via Roland's proprietary VS STREAMING technology. All
current Mac and PC DAW platforms are supported through ASIO 2.0/WDM
(Windows) and Core Audio (Mac) drivers. Thanks to VS STREAMING, you can
use multiple devices (two OCTA-CAPTURE units or one OCTA-CAPTURE plus a
V-STUDIO 100 or V-STUDIO 700) on the same USB bus without compromising
stability, performance, or audio quality.
Four Flexible Monitor Mixes
OCTA-CAPTURE offers four independent Direct Mixers for creating
software-controlled monitor mixes. Each mix can be routed to any of the
analog outputs and can take advantage of the internal 40-bit DSP
processing — perfect for sending custom monitor mixes to headphones,
speakers, or recording devices.
