Refined title: ESIMaya44 EX PCIe Audio Interface

The MAYA44 eX is a PCIe audio interface with 4 inputs and 4 outputs, supporting 24bit/96kHz. It offers high-definition functionality for various settings, from home recording to professional environments. The interface features two stereo line inputs/outputs, a microphone input with +48V phantom power and preamplifier, a Hi-Z input for connecting guitars, and other optical inputs and outputs. Additionally, it includes a headphone output terminal, making it ideal for music and multimedia content production.

Key specifications include a 102 dB A/D converter and a 108 dB D/A converter, both compatible with 24 bit/96 kHz. It allows for 4 channels of simultaneous input and output, with a microphone preamp offering +48V phantom power supply and Hi-Z input terminals for guitars. The interface also provides S/PDIF optical input and output terminals for full duplex recording.

The MAYA44 eX utilizes the latest PCIe interface technology by ESI, optimized for modern audio streaming and recording playback applications. It fully supports virtual channels through DirectWIRE and features a low latency EWDM driver compatible with MME, WDM, DirectSound, and ASIO 2.0. It is compatible with Windows Vista to 10 (32/64bit) and Mac OS X.

In terms of analog specifications, the interface supports sample rates of 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 kHz for both recording and playback. The analog input terminal includes 4 channels with programmable gain and peak levels, while the analog output terminal offers 4 channels with peak levels and attenuation settings. The microphone preamp provides a gain of +21dB, phantom power, and specific impedance values. The Hi-Z/Guitar input impedance is a minimum of 330K Ω, and the headphone amplifier is optimized for impedance ranges of 32-300 Ω.

For digital capabilities, the A/D converter features a S/N ratio of 102dBA, dynamic range of 102 dBA, and THD of -95dB. The D/A converter offers a S/N ratio of 108dBA, dynamic range of 108dBA, and THD of -97dB. The digital input and output terminals support optical TOSlink format with 24-bit resolution.

Overall, the MAYA44 eX is a versatile and high-performance PCIe audio interface suitable for a wide range of recording and production needs.
