1. Overview
Thank you for choosing MAYA. At last, here we are presenting a
versatile audio card you have wished to have for a long time.
MAYA is a professional quality PCI digital audio card for IBM PC and
compatibles. MAYA can record and/or playback through stereo analog
line input/output (RCA), a mono MIC input (1/4” Phone jack) and
S/PDIF digital output (Optical) with exceptional audio quality.
Through laborious research and development, AUDIOTRAK has built
its reputation as a world class Audio/MIDI interface manufacturer. Now
AUDIOTRAK launched to provide versatile audio cards for wider range
of users. For the start, AUDIOTRAK introduces MAYA.
Affordable and versatile MAYA can give you the total solution for
desktop music production environment. MAYA fully supports the
music applications with its low latency ASIO 2.0 driver, MME driver
and DirectSound driver supporting.
MAYA will give you best compatibility with all the application you
have been using with conventional sound cards. In addition, various
drivers supporting will give you a chance to work beyond the limitation
of conventional sound cards.
Maximize your creativity with MAYA. From now on your creativity
will be the only limitation!
FEATURES
20-Bit D/A converter and 18-bit A/D convert er.
3
Highest quality AD/DA converters in MAYA provide unmatched
sound quality with exceptionally low noise.
2-In/2-Out Analog Audio Inputs and Outputs.
MAYA provides RCA type jacks for use with –10dBV nominal
level consumer audio equipment. For the cleanest possible audio
signal paths, you’ll never need to adjust levels. Unlike some audio
cards that deliberately boost their output levels to give you a false
sense of audio quality, MAYA gives you a true indication of your
levels. What you hear is what you get. Nothing’s added or taken
away unless you intend to do so. If you need to adjust levels, digital
level adjustment is provided for analog inputs and outputs.
2 Channel Recording and 2 Channel Playback
-Full Duplex
You can record analog input source and play them back
simultaneously as well.
S/PDIF Coaxial Digital Out
MAYA provides Coaxial type digital output port. It can be used for
transferring audio signal in digital domain. You can use the digital
output while you are recording/playing back through analog I/O.
CD-ROM Audio Input Port
MAYA provides for an on-board 4-pin port that can be used to
connect directly with CD-ROM’s that have analog audio output
pins. This allows you to transfer CD audio directly to your PC with
ease, and you can playback your CD audio with MAYA’s 18-bit
AD converter.
Multiple Sample Rate Support
Supports denomination of 44.1kHz or 48kHz standard sample rates
and 32kHz. Sampling rate will be automatically detected and
applied for the situation. MAYA can be used in a variety of
applications ranging from multimedia to audio production.
Internal Mixer for Analog Monitoring
CD audio, analog input and MIC input can be selected for
monitoring. Input sources can be monitored simultaneously with
4
wave output controlled by the digital mixer of MAYA. You can run
two audio programs simultaneously and assign independent outputs
without changing the device driver. You can use both analog and
digital output simultaneously as well.
Uses 32 Bit PCI Slot for PCI Bus-mastering Support
MAYA use only small amount of system resources. Other
audio/sound cards can use quite large amount of system resources,
which ties up the computer’s CPU. MAYA operates independently
from the CPU, which allows you to use more software plug-in
effects without placing a heavy burden on the CPU.
Provides MIC Pre-Amp
MAYA even provides TRS 1/4”, mono MIC input port with 12V
Phantom Power. By choosing “Phantom Power” on the MAYA
control panel, phantom power is activated. To boost up the input
level, click the “+20dB” pad over the Phantom Power button.

the PCI card first and make all audio and header pin connections
before
you follow the instructions on this section in the sequence that it
is written, you will have properly installed all components.
use MAYA on virtually any Pentium based system. Your first
consideration should be the system requirement of audio
application of your choice. If the audio application’s system
requirements are met, then MAYA will run without any problem.
you install MAYA Driver and Control Panel software. If
SYSTEM REQUIREMENT
Because MAYA’s dependence on CPU is very low, you can
1. PCI 2.1 compliance Motherboard
