Arturia AudioFuse 16Rig Studio Audio Interface

Descrizione

If you're working with a wall of synthesizers or have a small army of always-on instruments set up in the studio, then the Arturia AudioFuse 16Ri provides a solid solution. This audio interface supplies the full array of connection options to support everything from line-level equipment to microphones, so everything can stay connected and ready to start recording. This hardware-focussed system serves as a sort of central hub for your studio, making sure that your equipment remains synchronised and is always ready for work.

A Computer-Free, Stand-Alone Mixer

What makes the AudioFuse 16Rig interface truly unique is that it can also operate as a 100% stand-alone unit, removing the need to hook it up to a computer, so you can record directly without the middle-man of a DAW, or even live-mix via an out-of-the-box configuration. All of this is made possible by two internal low-latency mixers that process both audio and MIDI without needing a computer. When working in stand-alone mode, custom presets can also be made and saved to be called up later - all via the AudioFuse itself.

Advanced Audio-Routing & A/B Monitoring

The multiple sends and returns provided for adding effects, and the fast A/B switching between monitor pairs is just a small slice of the mass of functions this audio interface has to offer. Via the included AudioFuse Control Center, access is granted to a real matrix, giving you a clear and fast overview of the ins and outs of 'connecting everything to everything'. All of that, and we haven't even touched on the level of audio quality which, all thanks to superior components, including 24-bit ESS and Cirrus Logic AD/DA converters, more than cuts it - especially when you add them to an outstanding set of digitally-controlled preamps optimised to support precise monitoring.

Connection Options & Included Software

Via the two banks of ADAT inputs and outputs, a potential sixteen extra in and/or outs can be added, so external preamps can be linked up to record a drum kit or full band. The AudioFuse 16Rig has also been kitted out with sixteen analogue line-inputs and eight analogue DC-coupled line-outputs, including two mounted on the front panel so they can be used for re-amping or plugging in two extra sets of headphones. This vast unit can also be used as your master clock device: simply connect all of your digital equipment to the wordclock I/O to ensure flawless synchronisation.
