There are three models of Nomad available to fit individual needs – Nomad Lite, Nomad 10, and Nomad 12. All versions of Nomad feature 10 analog inputs with 6 mic preamps featuring NeverClip. Nomad 10 and 12 has 3 pair of AES digital inputs with sample rate conversion. One pair can be configured as an AES42 input. All inputs can be mixed into 6 output busses over 4 XLR connectors and 3 TA5 connectors (two busses per TA5). Each output connector can be individually configured as line, mic, and consumer output levels. There is also a mono and tape output. Nomad also has 4 balanced camera returns that double as balanced line-level inputs. Nomad can record 10 or 12 tracks (model depend) on dual Compact Flashcards. Files can be recorded up to 24 bit / 96KHz with a dynamic range of 137 dB. Nomad 10 and 12 have ZaxNet compatibility. Nomad 12 has the ability to record to a USB flash drive, and the ability to record MP3 files.
