MOTU Track16 Desktop audio interface with effects and mixing
ออดิโออินเตอร์เฟส MOTU Track16 16-in/14-out Hybrid USB 2.0 and FireWire 400 Compact Desktop Recording Interface with Onboard DSP, Pre-DAW Latency-free Effects and Processors, and Comprehensive Hands-on Controls
The MOTU Track16 Track16 Desktop Studio FireWire/USB 2.0 Interface is a versatile and compact unit that offers a wide range of inputs and outputs, as well as effects, mixing, and monitoring. It’s equipped with eight channels of analog ins and outs including mic, line, and high-impedance instrument inputs. The analog connectors come on a 44-inch breakout cable, which gives you flexibility for setup and connections (an optional breakout box is also available). For digital I/O, the unit’s optical ports support either eight channels of ADAT, four channels of SMUX optical, or two channels of optical S/PDIF on TOSlink connectors. MIDI in and Out jacks are also included.
Housed in an aluminum-alloy chassis, Track16 supports professional-quality 24-bit recording at sampling rates up to 192 kHz, and has a user interface that was designed to be simple and intuitive. The large knob in the center of the unit can be set to control levels for any of the inputs or outputs with just a single tap on one of the front panel buttons. User-assignable LED meters make it possible to see levels from any of the units inputs or outputs.
Track16 gives you the choice of either USB 2.0 or FireWire connection. If you choose the latter, the unit can be powered via the FireWire bus. Track16 is compatible with Mac OS X and Windows 7/Vista, as well as any audio software that supports WDM, ASIO, and Core Audio.
The included MOTU CueMix FX software gives you low-latency hardware monitoring, and lets you create up to eight separate monitor mixes. You get reverb, modeled analog EQ, and modeled vintage compression, all of which can be used strictly for the monitor mix or printed into your host software. Talkback and Listenback features make it easy to communicate from the control room to musicians in the live room. CueMix FX also offers comprehensive metering for all the inputs and outputs.
Features:
- This personal desktop 16-in/14-out desktop recording interface gives you all of the I/O and advanced mixing options you need to make professional-quality recordings
- Slim desktop form factor keeps your work surface clear and your controls handy
- Hybrid high-speed USB 2.0 and FireWire 400 connectivity
- FireWire 400 supplies bus power (AC power supply provided for USB 2.0 operation)
- Supports up to full 24-bit/192kHz HD audio
- All analog I/O connects via a single DB-25 breakout cable for maximum versatility
- 2 x MOTU microphone preamplifiers provide you with low-noise, high-headroom performance
- Each mic pre features switchable +48V phantom power and a switchable -20dB pad
- 2 x dedicated instrument inputs allow you to record guitar and bass direct
- 4 x line-level inputs (in 2 x stereo pairs) are perfect for keyboards, drum machines, and outboard gear
- Top-panel controls provide one-touch control over all input and output levels
- CueMix FX lets you assign a separate pre-computer input mix to each output pair including the main outputs, the line outputs, the headphone outputs, 4 x optical pairs, and the return bus
- CueMix FX also lets you apply effects and processing to your input channels including Classic Reverb, a 7-band British style parametric EQ, a conventional compressor, and the Leveler (an accurate model of the legendary LA-2A optical compressor)
- Precision Digital Trim technology on all inputs provides adjustments in approximately 1/4dB increments, which you can store and recall later
- 8-bus mixer also functions in standalone mode
- Time code support directly resolves to or generates time code via any quarter-inch input or output, without the need for an extra synchronizer
- Direct Digital Synthesis DSP-driven phase lock engine and internal clock source produces imperceptibly low jitter characteristics (below the noise floor), even when the Track16 is resolved to an external clock source via SMPTE time code
- DC-coupled TRS outputs can be used with MOTU’s Volta (sold separately) to manipulate and sequence voltage-controlled modular synthesizers from a host DAW
- Mac and PC compatible on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms
