CEntrance DACport Pro
The DACport Pro offers a pro solution for keyboard players, who use Virtual Instruments, as well as DJs who play live. Both types of artists rely on the laptop to create their sound on stage. DACport Pro simplifies the connection to the professional audio equipment, making it easy to use a laptop on stage, during a live performance.
Compact USB Audio Interface
DACport Pro is a compact USB audio interface providing high-quality output from a connected PC or Apple Mac computer. It features a headphone output and balanced stereo outputs with options for line and mic-level. The balanced outputs may be fixed, or variable, with their level controlled with the level knob. This turns the product into a Studio Monitor Controller. The device also includes a pair of LEDs indicating power and audio streaming status, and a USB-C connector for computer connectivity.
Calibrated VU Meters
DACport Pro features calibrated LED VU meters, so you can monitor signal levels even without your headphones. LED meter brightness is gradually adjustable from pitch-black to daylight visible. Set it to match the ambient light of the venue and enjoy a comfortable work environment.
