Barix Audio Product Matrix

Barix audio products are a combination of HW capabilities versus SW functionalities. Almost any SW version can be loaded on any HW device. The attached tables help you to find out which combination best fits your requirements. First look at what HW device provides the right capabilities and then look at what SW version enables the required features.
