True Analogue Control
Volume8’s true analogue attenuation offers considerable advantages over most built-in volume controls from modern converters and sound cards. The majority of these devices forego analogue volume potentiometers and instead control volume at the conversion output stage.

The result is a varying signal level from the converter causing a net loss of audio quality and lower bitrates disrupting monitoring accuracy.

Volume8 offers attenuation at the analogue level without touching bit-rate or conversion, thus offering a truer canvas on which engineers can build and judge their mix.

Expansive Channel Count
Extending the scope of the smaller Volume2 volume controller, Volume8 harnesses the power of DB25 (commonly known as D-Sub) to offer 8 simultaneous channels of inputs and outputs. D-Sub connectors are a popular choice for larger scale interfaces from brands such as Metric Halo, making connecting multiple channels via a single pin configured multicore cable a breeze.
