DirectOut is a German pro audio manufacturer based in Mittweida, Saxony, specializing in audio connectivity, networking, and format conversion for broadcast, live sound, installation, and recording applications. Founded in 2008 by a team of sound engineers led by Stephan Flock, the company builds bridges between disparate audio ecosystems — its devices routinely translate between MADI, Dante, RAVENNA, SoundGrid, AES67, and SMPTE ST 2110-30/31.

The product catalog centers on three families: the PRODIGY series of multifunction audio platforms (including the PRODIGY.MP mainframe and PRODIGY.MC monitor controller), the modular EXBOX range of format converters and bridges, and the MAVEN series of audio processors. DirectOut also makes the USB.MADI multichannel soundcard and Milan-certified network interface cards, alongside a broader line of MADI tools such as the ANDIAMO converters.

The brand is oriented toward system integrators, broadcast engineers, and front-of-house and monitor engineers working on large-scale productions, where its gear is commonly used for redundancy, protocol conversion, and high channel-count I/O between consoles, stage boxes, and recording rigs. DirectOut operates a U.S. subsidiary, DirectOut LLC, in addition to its German headquarters.

DirectOut has 45 products cataloged on Equipboard, including A-D & D-A Converters, Converters, and Audio Interfaces. Their gear is featured by 1 artist, with the strongest followings in Electronic. Notable users include Deadmau5.
