Unsurpassed Clocking and Jitter Rejection

Prism Sound’s history in developing test and measurement equipment for the audio industry has allowed its engineers to gain a deeper understanding of digital clocking and its associated issues.

Digital Mixer with Flexible Monitoring

Atlas has a powerful built-in digital mixer that can be configured to provide a multitude of ultra-low latency feeds, including foldback to performers, stereo, and surround outputs.

Mic Preamps

The Atlas boasts 8 ultra-clean, low-noise microphone preamps that perfectly complement its transparent A/D conversion. Each channel includes software-controllable phantom power, -20dB pad, and Overkiller limiter switches.

Future Proof Connectivity

With a standard USB connection, Atlas can connect to the widest range of computers today and for the foreseeable future. Add to this the option of ProTools HDX and Dante modules for the most flexible and professional solution.

MDIO

Multi-channel I/O Expansion

Atlas and Titan support Prism Sound’s MDIO expansion cards, which provide alternative “host” connections. The “host” is usually a computer, and the Atlas or Titan interface provides a means of connection between the host and the external analogue and digital audio I/O ports.

The MDIO expansion slot provides an alternative host connection. It does not necessarily disable the USB port, but in the case of the Pro Tools interface MDIO-PTHDX, the USB port is switched off when the Pro Tools interface is to be used.

Software

Atlas’ front panel provides continuous visual indication of the unit’s main settings and levels, but in-depth control is managed from the Atlas Controller applet. This runs on the DAW computer, and can be popped up whenever adjustments are needed.

The applet shows ‘Global’ settings for the entire group of connected interfaces and ‘Unit’ settings assignable to each connected unit. Global settings include parameters such as sync source, sample rate, metering, and buffering modes.
