Flexible and transparent 24-bit/192kHz audio interface using the same RAVENNA / AES67 connectivity as the Horus, base unit includes 8x AES/EBU I/O (4 pairs on 1 DB25), Ravenna/ AES67 I/O, 8 ADAT, or 2 SPDIF I/O and 2x analogue slots

MERGING+HAPI has been a hugely popular networked audio converter and instrumental in introducing so many to the exciting world of RAVENNA/AES67. Its economical form factor made it the ideal local stagebox or studio rack unit for any application. Now is the time to build on that success with new technology and new features that still allow full interface card compatibility with the original Hapi and Horus products.

Hapi MKII utilizes the ZMAN technology introduced with Anubis and this powerful processor allows some very meaningful performance upgrades. The recent introduction of the ADA8S and ADA8P cards improved the headroom of the mic-pre inputs and effectively doubled the analog I/O count to 16 in/16 out in DSD, all in 1U rack mountable box.

Merging's range of audio device options make Hapi the optimum interface for any DAW, regardless of OS.

Next level resolution

Blown away by how good this interface is, paired with an ADA8P premium AD/DA card that can do DSD/DXD.
We use it for mastering and have brought resolution and convenience to the next level, compared to other high end converters we've used over the years (Apogee, DAD, Lynx, etc.)
The only small complaint is that it may take some time to tweak your system architecture / settings (ethernet / permissions, etc.) to get everything running smoothly. Read more

Transparent and highly flexible, very sweet and focused

My use case: mastering

This is my favorite interface by a lot, having used many others in the past, including from Avid, Antelope, Grace Design, Prism Sound, DAD, Meitner, MOTU, Apogee.
The sound is incredibly open, detailed, and effortless. Sweetness emanates from its delicate resolution. Read more
