FIRESTUDIO TUBE DESCRIPTION
 
A versatile FireWire interface from PreSonus!
With the addition of the FireStudio Tube audio interface, PreSonus expands their successful FireStudio line. The FireStudio Tube is packed with sixteen analog inputs - two tube-based channels, eight XMAX preamps, and six balanced TRS inputs with Neutrik balanced TRS outputs, and also sports MIDI I/O. The FireStudio Tube brings the best of the past (the tube preamp on two channels) and blends it with modern technology (low jitter clock and FireWire) to create an audio interface with a variety of sonic colors. FireStudio Tube is a perfect fit in any studio.

PreSonus FireStudio Tube at a Glance:
  • Analog front end
  • Digital back end
  • Compatibility

Analog front end
On the front end, the FireStudio Tube is equipped with a variety of top-notch analog inputs - 16 in total - to bring source material into your session. The front panel is equipped with a pair of tube-driven preamps that are great for vocals, drum overheads, or acoustic guitar - pretty much any sound source that you want to add a bit of "tube" tone to. The back panel is loaded with eight XMAX solid-state preamps for mics and six balanced TRS line inputs for connecting external preamps or line level gear. Balanced line outputs round out the analog feature set.

Digital back end
D/A conversion is handled by convertors sporting 114dB of dynamic range and clocking being handled by a JetPLL low jitter clock. A single FireWire cable connects the FireStudio Tube to your computer. A 34 x 4 mixer matrix allows for sending latency-free multiple monitor mixes to performers. MIDI I/O rounds out the connectivity of the FireStudio Tube.

Compatibility
The FireStudio Tube is compatible with Mac OS X, Windows XP, and Vista 32, so no matter which system you're running you can fit the FireStudio Tube into your studio. On the application side of things, FireStudio Tube works with Cubase, Logic, Nuendo, Sonar, among others.

“I was skeptical of Presonus but am blown away now that I have done several sessions using the Firestudio Tube. The preamps are exceptional. The tube preamps sound natural and actually out performed some of my other outboard preamps that cost way more than the entire FS Tube. They have obviously upgraded their A/D converters because this sounds 100 times better than my old Firepod. Everything...” Read More
