<h3>Use With or without DAW</h3>
Crimson is designed to operate with your Digital Audio Workstation. Crimson can operate without a USB connection too. Everything is fully functional except for USB, MIDI and SPDIF in/out. You can use Crimson as your studio preamplifer to monitor your audio sources and to rehearse and play or sing along with the DAW
<br /><br />
Mix your own monitor signal with playback or guide tracks from any source – including your smartphone. What you are playing is not bad? Turn on the DAW and record it.<br /><br />
<h3>iPad Recording</h3>
Crimson has built-in USB Audio Class 2 drivers for hot-plugging and recording with an iPad. Do note that the original Apple Camera Adapter is required.
<br /><br />
<h3>A new concept with phenomenal value</h3>
At SPL we design audio equipment in all price ranges – except cheap gear. Therefore each SPL unit provides professional quality. The Crimson leaps forward and sets a new sound quality benchmark in its price range: We have re-designed proven circuitries and created a new, fully integrated design. Together with new production methods we are able to break through usual price limits.
<br /><br />
So with the Crimson interface and controller you have a boutique standard recording and monitoring device at a fraction of the price we used to know from traditional engineering and manufacturing.
