And if you don't love me now...
Chain multiple UF8s together to create your unique mixing system; build your perfect 16-24 channel music creation hub, or connect 4 UF8s within a single system to create a 32-channel controller ideal for large post production or mixing sessions. (Image shows 3 units / 24-channel system).
The rear panel of UF8 features a USB 'C' type port for easy connection to the host computer ('C' to 'C' and 'C' to 'A' cables included with UF8), two jack sockets offering standard foot-switch connections and a socket for UF8's auto ranging external PSU. The USB 'A' port on UF8 can be used to daisy-chain USB communication between UF8s, or, it can be used to plug in any USB dongles you have.
