USB Audio/MIDI Interface With Digital I/O!

M-Audio's Audiophile USB joins the quality and value of the Audiophile 2496 with the convenience of a USB connection! The Audiophile USB delivers great frequency response, dynamic range and noise specs. Plus, it's compact enough to go anywhere.

M-Audio Audiophile USB at a Glance:
  • High-quality audio with 24-bit/96kHz capability
  • Flexible I/O with 2 pairs of line inputs plus S/PDIF
  • AC powered for high-performance AD/DA conversion

High-quality audio with 24-bit/96kHz capability
M-Audio has been building affordable interfaces with surprising performance for years. And the Audiophile USB is no exception! This 24-bit/96kHz audio/MIDI interface builds on the wildly popular Audio 2496 but offers an easy USB connection so you can use it with laptops, desktops - any PC or Mac computer!

Flexible I/O with 2 pairs of line inputs plus S/PDIF
It's easy to connect audio gear to the M-Audio Audiophile USB. Two pairs of line-level inputs (1/4" TS and RCA) are perfect for hooking up keyboards, drum machines, samplers, and just about anything else. Plus, The Audiophile USB features stereo S/PDIF inputs and outputs, so you can connect devices with digital outputs as well. The S/PDIF port can also pass AC3 and DTS surround-encoded material when connected to a compatible source. The Audiophile USB's RCA line outputs have an independent level control, making monitoring easy.

AC powered for high-performance AD/DA conversion
The M-Audio Audiophile USB delivers great frequency response, dynamic range and noise specs. That's because it uses AC-powered components that deliver better fidelity than bus-powered circuitry. Compact enough to go anywhere, the Audiophile USB has the audio quality to satisfy the most discriminating ears.

Includes Ableton Live Lite software
M-Audio's Audiophile USB also comes with a special limited edition of the amazing Ableton Live software specifically for M-Audio customers. Live's revolutionary concept of elastic audio sequencing lets you record, import, arrange and process multiple audio clips and loops into complete songs regardless of their pitch or tempo - all in real time while the music continues. With great audio quality, USB convenience, a built-in MIDI interface, and bundled software, the M-Audio Audiophile USB is a computer musician's dream!
