8PRE DESCRIPTION |
|
16-channel, 8-preamp 24-bit/96kHz FireWire Audio Interface The MOTU 8pre is a handy multipurpose solution for the modern DAW user. For starters, it's a powerful 24-bit/96kHz FireWire audio interface, boasting a full complement of eight microphone preamplifiers. Better yet, the MOTU 8pre has two banks of ADAT optical ports, so you can easily connect it into your existing interface system, to beef it up with eight more preamplifiers. And, beyond all that, it has MOTU's CueMix DSP functionality, so you can flexibly route audio to create separate monitor mixes and headphone mixes on the MOTU 8pre - with no latency. MOTU 8pre 24-bit/96kHz FireWire Audio Interface at a Glance:
Fully featured interface for any recording setup The MOTU 8pre is designed to serve as the centerpiece of any DAW-based recording studio. With its eight quality microphone preamplifiers - on XLR/TRS combo jacks - you'll have enough inputs to handle nearly any recording situation. Add to that its excellent 24-bit/96kHz resolution and fast FireWire connectivity (two ports available), and the MOTU 8pre is all you need to achieve great-sounding recordings, whether that's in your studio or out in the field. If you need more inputs, the 8pre features two banks of ADAT optical I/O - you can easily pipe in any ADAT-output-equipped audio interface and record more channels through the MOTU 8pre. Give your existing rig eight more preamplifiers If you already have a working studio setup, you can easily expand your rig with the MOTU 8pre. Because it offers ADAT output, you can connect it up to your unused ADAT port and take advantage of 8pre's eight stellar microphone preamplifiers - it's a great way to turn your rig into one that can handle miking an entire band, including professionally miking the drums. And, the great part is, that because the 8pre can operate as a standalone audio interface, you won't be locking yourself into getting "just" an 8-channel microphone preamplifier. So, if your needs require, you can always leave the rest of your studio connected at home, while you take the 8pre out to a friend's house or to a live show, to record on a smaller scale. CueMix DSP lets you create effective monitor mixes - with no latency Connect up all your gear to the MOTU 8pre, then use its onboard CueMix DSP to create complex monitor mixes - without hitting up your computer for processing power. With CueMix and your 8pre, you can create up to four separate stereo monitor mixes, assigned to any digital or analog output pairs. Each mix can support all 16 of the 8pre's inputs - its 8 XLR/TRS analog inputs and its 8 ADAT optical digital inputs. Just blend in whatever amount of them you like, then let CueMix DSp do all the work. CueMix DSP supports talkback and listenback, as well, so you and musicians can communicate between the live rooms and control rooms. 16 channels of MIDI I/O The MOTU 8pre features an integrated 16-channel MIDI interface, delivering sample-accurate timing to software hosts that support it. The FireWire signal carries your MIDI signal to your computer. SMPTE time code synchronization Beyond its robust I/O and routing capabilities, the MOTU 8pre features onboard SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) time code synchronization, so you can slave your 8pre to SMPTE, without a synchronizer. MOTU 8pre Features:
The 8pre adds eight great-sounding MOTU preamplifiers to any interface or computer DAW!
