The Flock Audio Switch is an advanced audio routing system designed for audio engineers, musicians, and creators, enabling seamless switching between eight mono or stereo inputs and a pair of stereo outputs, with zero latency, no AD/DA conversion, and 100% sonically transparent routing, all housed in an ergonomic desktop design with innovative manual and software control options.
Effortless Input and Output Management
The Flock Audio Switch redefines audio routing by providing eight TRS/TS inputs, compatible with both mono and stereo configurations, alongside two XLR outputs. This design supports both analogue audio and AES/EBU signal levels, ensuring versatility across a wide range of professional audio setups. Users can easily manage inputs and outputs using a large rotary encoder knob or remotely through the SWITCH App, available for macOS and Windows.
Customisation and Control
The device incorporates a high-resolution LCD display, which allows users to customise colours, images, and text for an intuitive and personalised interface. Additionally, an under-glow ambient lighting feature lets users adjust the knob's colour to match their studio or stage aesthetic. This extensive customisation ensures that the Flock Audio Switch integrates seamlessly into any professional environment.
SWITCH App: The Ideal Software Companion
The SWITCH App provides powerful remote control capabilities, eliminating the need for direct access to the hardware during operation. This routing software offers precise input-output management, enabling users to configure signal paths with ease and speed. Whether adjusting settings or muting individual channels, the SWITCH App enhances workflow efficiency without compromising creative flexibility.
Advanced Signal Management
The Flock Audio Switch maintains pristine audio quality through innovative engineering that eliminates noise and switching artefacts when toggling between channels. Users can bypass or mute individual input channels or mute all channels entirely with a simple short or long press of the rotary knob. This hands-on functionality ensures smooth transitions, making the device ideal for both studio and live performance scenarios.
Design and Connectivity
The ergonomic desktop design ensures ease of use, featuring compact dimensions of 2" x 9" x 6" and a weight of 24 lbs. It connects via USB-C, which serves both as the power source and the interface for software control. The included 10 ft USB-C to USB-C cable ensures a flexible setup, whether in a studio or live environment.
Uncompromising Performance
By avoiding AD/DA conversion entirely, the Flock Audio Switch delivers latency-free performance while preserving the integrity of the audio signal. This design guarantees professional-grade sound quality, making it an indispensable tool for professionals who demand precision and reliability.
With its unparalleled combination of functionality, flexibility, and sonic transparency, the Flock Audio Switch stands as a cutting-edge solution for modern audio routing needs.
