HOLOPHONIX 64, Offering Up to 128 Inputs, and 64 Outputs

The HOLOPHONIX 64 processor was the result of several exciting years of research, development and industrial design. As the first mass-produced processor capable of handling the most diverse challenges, it is being used in the most ambitious projects around the world.


The HOLOPHONIX 64 is now discontinued. However, they are still supported, compatible with the latest software updates, and available for rental. HOLOPHONIX Ultra is the current product model available.

Dante Spoken !

The HOLOPHONIX Audio over IP protocol is Dante-based and can be integrated with a wide range of standard commercial Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) and Dante-enabled devices, providing an additional layer of control.

A Sound-breaking Design

HOLOPHONIX 64 revolutionized the industry with its style and manufacturing process. Embodying HOLOPHONIX's precision and functional craftsmanship, this machined aluminum processor features a structure inspired by modern architecture and the intricate patterns of scientific diagrams. Its compact dimensions conceal a powerful and optimized electronic design.

Reliable Support

The HOLOPHONIX support team is available to assist professionals in solving any problems they may encounter with our products. If necessary, a Service Mode feature can be activated, enabling our support team to remotely access the HOLOPHONIX Ultra processor for control or repair purposes at any time (requires an Internet connection).
