10x More Isolation Power
Synapse MAX is a UAC2 compliant galvanic isolator with 10x more output power capacity than Synapse. It's built to eliminate ground loop noise from bus-powered audio interfaces and DACs without compromising USB sampling rates. Its ISOUSB211 enhances performance by cancelling USB signal loss and optimizing the USB timing diagram, while supplying super clean, transformer isolated power to your DAC, mixer, interface, or other UAC2 device. Synapse MAX features USB C inputs and outputs, housed in a sleek glass-topped, CNC-machined aluminum enclosure. For your convenience, Synapse MAX includes all accessories you will need to connect to standard USB ports.

Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Ella R. ★★★★★

Plugged this in between my interface and speakers, and the 10x isolation power completely killed the buzzing I couldn't fix with different cables. It's a simple fix that just works without any extra power supply or software.

Victoria ★★★★★

My little USB interface kept humming through my monitors no matter what I tried, and this box finally killed it stone dead. The thing that sold me was the UAC2 compliance — plugged in, zero drivers needed, and the extra power headroom means my bus-powered gear still runs full tilt without a whisper

Miles ★★★★★

The 10x power capacity made a huge difference with my bus-powered interface—the hum is totally gone, and the noise floor is silent now. I’ve tried cheaper isolators before, but this one actually handles the full audio chain without choking. Money well spent for clean recording.
