Hapi MKII utilizes the ZMAN technology introduced with Anubis and this powerful processor allows some very meaningful performance upgrades. The recent introduction of the ADA8S and ADA8P cards improved the headroom of the mic-pre inputs and effectively doubled the analog I/O count to 16 in/16 out in DSD, all in 1U rack mountable box.
Merging’s range of audio device options make Hapi the optimum interface for any DAW, regardless of OS.
Able to carry the same AKD8D/AKD8DP and DA8/DA8P or ADA8S/P analog cards that fit in the Horus option slots and connect to any RAVENNA or AES67 network the HAPI provides a more cost-effective solution than the Horus without having to make a single compromise in quality. The big news is that the introduction of the ADA8S and ADA8P has turned this into a 16 in and 16 out capable device. Hapi MKII also takes advantage of recent technology improvements that are being rolled out across the Merging range of Networked Audio Interfaces.
