Product Description
The Horizon 16 is a 34 in / 34 out Thunderbolt 3 audio interface and converter built around 16 channels of line I/O over four DB25 connectors and 32 bit conversion at 133dB dynamic range. With a dedicated stereo mix bus path and 0.99ms round trip latency, the 16 keeps an entire outboard rack patched and printing to the DAW without sacrificing inputs — designed for the engineer integrating analogue hardware or instruments into a hybrid mixing workflow

Why the HORIZON 16?
The 16 is built to sit at the centre of a hybrid studio. Sixteen channels of line I/O over four DB25 connectors keep a full rack of compressors, EQs and a summing box permanently patched, while a dedicated stereo mix bus path lets you print your master back to the DAW without unplugging a thing. With 32-bit conversion at 133dB dynamic range your outboard returns exactly as it left, uncoloured, and 0.99ms round trip latency keeps native plugins lag free. Horizon Control handles routing, monitoring and metering from one panel — and when a session outgrows a single unit, you can daisy chain up to four for 200 in and 200 out on one driver
