24-bit/192 kHz
The premium converters used in IXO series interfaces deliver great audio quality, thanks to a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz with 24-bit resolution. High-quality analog to digital conversion is a crucial first step for any sound production, so Steinberg’s hardware designers carefully chose the best combination of components for optimum results. Accurately capturing every detail of the signals they record, IXO interfaces ensure audio fidelity throughout the recording process is maximized.

Loopback function for streaming
The IXO interface Loopback function offers an easy way to stream performances live to the internet. Ideal for hosting live online broadcasts, incoming audio signals (such as a microphone, musical instrument or line source) are merged with content coming from playback software, such as Cubase or another DAW, on your computer. The merged signal is then broadcast online via your choice of streaming software.
