Time+Space has announced it is shipping the Gigaport HD+ audio interface by ESI.

ESI Gigaport HD+

With a completely new design, the Gigaport HD+ replaces ESI’s popular Gigaport HD to become one of the best value multichannel playback solutions on the market today.

Providing 8 independent outputs (and full 7.1 surround sound support), 2 independent stereo headphone outputs and excellent audio quality supporting up to 24-bit and 96 kHz, the Gigaport HD+ is perfect for DJs on the move with a compact design that measures just 12cm x 7cm x 2cm.

Simply use your favorite DJ software and Gigaport HD+´s eight outputs as up to 4 different stereo channels, enabling you to mix, cue and add effects! Monitor and pre-listen to your signals via the two built-in headphone outputs.

The Gigaport HD+ provides ASIO 2.0 drivers for professional audio mixing and playback under Windows XP and Windows Vista / 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit). The hardware is also CoreAudio compatible and natively works under Mac OS X even without the installation of a special driver. Gigaport HD+ is of course compatible with all the popular professional audio software applications like Cubase, Sonar or Logic and also works with consumer programs such as DVD playback software.

To get started right away, GIGAPORT HD+ comes bundled with a license of the DJ software Deckadance LE from Image-Line Software.

Gigaport HD+ is now shipping now from Time+Space and authorised UK ESI dealers, priced RRP £142 GBP / 179 EUR.
