Hello there !
After six successful years since the first RIFF Box hardware was released, we’re proud to introduce our new v2 RIFF Box hardware. We did our best to develop a reliable, marvelous, yet functional device.

Below you can read the basics about it. Of course, this is preliminary and just a start. RIFF Box v2 hardware is designed so that it can accommodate a large variety of communication protocols, including those of highest importance for starters.
