BIAMP Audia Expo 8 Channel Audio Output Expander

$29.00

The Biamp Audia Expo 8 Channel Audio Output Expander is a professional audio device designed to expand the number of output channels in a sound system. It receives eight channels of digital audio via CobraNet, a robust digital network audio protocol. The unit converts these digital signals to analog with 24-bit digital-to-analog converters operating at a 48 kHz sample rate, ensuring high-quality audio output. Outputs are delivered as line-level analog signals on rear panel plug-in barrier strips for easy integration with amplifiers or processors. The front panel features level controls for precise output adjustment and a rotary encoder with an LCD screen for programming and system setup. The device is rack-mountable, built to professional standards for installed sound systems that require flexible audio expansion.

About the BIAMP Audia Expo 8 Channel Audio Output Expander

The BIAMP Audia Expo is an 8-channel audio output expander module designed to extend the analog output capacity of a BIAMP AudiaFLEX or AudiaSOLO digital signal processor (DSP). It connects to the host DSP unit via a dedicated digital audio bus (CobraNet or similar), allowing for a seamless and high-fidelity expansion of the system's output channels. This module is essential in larger-scale installations where the base DSP unit lacks sufficient physical outputs to drive all the required loudspeaker zones, amplifier channels, or recording feeds, such as in corporate campuses, large houses of worship, performing arts centers, and distributed audio systems.

Each of its eight outputs provides a balanced, line-level analog signal, maintaining the audio quality and processing transparency of the main Audia DSP. The module is typically housed in a compact, rack-mountable enclosure and draws power directly from the host processor or an external supply. Its operation is fully integrated and transparent; once connected and configured within the Audia software environment, the Expo's outputs behave exactly like the native outputs of the main DSP, allowing engineers to assign processed audio signals, apply gain, and manage delays across all outputs from a single, unified software interface.

Built for reliability in commercial installations, the Audia Expo exemplifies BIAMP's modular system philosophy. It enables system designers to start with a core DSP and expand I/O as project needs grow, protecting the initial investment and providing scalability. By offering clean, expanded output capacity, this module is a critical component for building sophisticated, multi-zone audio systems that require precise, independent control over numerous audio destinations.
