Product information "Hear Technologies Switch Back PLUS"
A Dante audio interface, mixer, and MIDI control surface in a single device. Simply connect via a Cat6 Ethernet cable to a PoE+ network switch and route audio to and from your Dante-enabled devices – whether it’s a front-of-house console or a laptop running Dante Virtual Soundcard.
Add multiple PLUS units to scale and decentralize your audio inputs or provide each band member with their own personal monitor mixer.
The device can also be used as a MIDI controller, allowing you to adjust parameters of external instruments and effects with precision.
From studio environments to live stage setups, the Switch Back PLUS integrates effortlessly into a wide range of workflows.
With seamless Dante connectivity, setup is simple and audio performance remains crystal clear in any application.
