Roland S-0808: 8 x 8 Input / Output Unit
- 2. New possibilities in multi-channel audio distribution The S-0808 weighs around 6.6lbs making it portable and easy to setup. Rugged construction with steel handles withstands the rigors of live applications and frequent use. Fan-less design enables quiet operation in any environment. S-4000R Remote Controller Dedicated remote controller for the Digital Snake series. Gain level, pad and phantom power are remotely controllable. S-4000RCS Remote Control Software Dedicated remote control software for the Digital Snake series. Monitor all 40 channels and control gain levels, pad, and phantom power from your PC. All channels equipped with superb quality preamps. Eliminate the need for direct boxes with inputs 5 - 8 supporting balanced TRS and as well as 7 and 8 supporting Hi-Z from guitars. DC input for External Battery. Power supplied over REAC (REAC Embedded Power).
- 3. Superb Quality, Fully Discreet Preamp All inputs employ a high quality preamp with fully discreet circuit design resulting in outstanding sound. Eliminate the need for direct boxes by using the TRS or Hi-Z inputs. Control input gain (-65 to +10dBu), Pad and Phantom Power via a dedicated S-4000R Remote Controller or using the PC Remote Control Software (S-4000RCS). When using as part of a V-Mixing System, these parameters are controlled directly from the M-400 or M-380 V-Mixer.
- 4. Power Options The S-0808 is powered by REAC Embedded Power, External Battery Options or Power over Ethernet (PoE)*. Choose the type of power conducive to you location and application. Having not to rely on AC power opens up a world of convenience and flexibility. V-Mount (IDX) and Gold Mount (Anton Bauer) battery systems and mounts are supported using the included universal adapter plate. * Note that if using third-party PoE swtiches or injectors, ensure they can supply a minimum of 25W.

- 15. Part of The V-Mixing System Total Integrated Solution REAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) technology is the cornerstone of the V-Mixing System. REAC is Roland’s original technology for low latency, high quality digital audio transfer. REAC is an Ethernet based technology that enables multiple components to be easily integrated using lightweight Cat5e/6 cable. With just a single inexpensive cable, 40 input x 40 output channels of 24-bit uncompressed audio data (including level and control information) are transferred. Digital Snakes Enjoy superior clear sound, great intelligibility with minimal latency and the freedom to split or extend your audio sources anywhere. Bridging The S-MADI REAC Bridge enables connectivity b e t w e e n M A D I - e q u i p p e d d i g i t a l a u d i o mixers/systems to any REAC-based devices. Personal Mixers The M-48 is the “next generation” live personal mixer that offers musicians the flexibly to control exactly what they want to listen to during their performances. REAC Driver The REAC driver enables users to capture up to 40 audio channels from a Digital Snake or V-Mixing System directly into most ASIO-based DAWs via Cat5e/6 cable. Recording Multi-channel recording and playback, including virtual rehearsal is accomplished with reliability and stability using the dedicated R-1000 48-Track Recorder/Player.
