New Power in a FireWire Audio Interface! Recording bands? The PreSonus FireStudio is a complete 26x26 24-bit/96k professional recording system combining eight Class A PreSonus microphone preamplifiers, up to sixteen channels of optical ADAT input/output, S/PDIF and MIDI input/output, along with the Control Console - a 36x36x18 zero latency mixer/router. The FireStudio also comes with award-winning recording and production software, virtual instruments, plug-ins, drum loops and samples to get you started making music immediately. PreSonus FireStudio At-a-Glance: PreSonus Preamplifiers Ins and Outs JetPLL Control Console - Zero Latency DSP Mixing/Routing Optional Monitor Station Remote (MSR) ProPak Complete Software Suite PreSonus Preamplifiers The FireStudio starts with eight on-board custom-designed Class A microphone preamplifiers. Many other companies offering recording interfaces add the cheapest possible microphone preamplifier as an afterthought to the interface. PreSonus knows that every major component in the signal path from the audio source to the hard drive are extremely important and the preamplifier is a key component. The job of a microphone preamplifier is to boost microphone level signals to line level so that the signal can be converted from analog to digital. This mic to line boost is generally an preamplification of over 400 times the voltage of the original mic level signal. This preamplification stage is one of the most important stages that the signal will go through before converted to digital, and is why a high performance preamplifier is important to achieving great results. A cheap "off the shelf op-amp" type mic preamp that is found in most interfaces translates into thin, noisy and harsh results. A PreSonus preamplifier which operates in Class A mode and at higher voltage/current ratings than off the shelf op-amps, is designed for high headroom, low noise, wide dynamic range and wide frequency range, and most importantly, musicality and transparency - smooth highs, solid deep lows, and everything in between. Ins and Outs The FireStudio is loaded with I/O for an extremely flexible and expandable recording system. The FireStudio starts with eight Class A customer designed PreSonus microphone preamplifiers. You can add additional preamplifiers or analog inputs via the dual optical light pipe ports on the rear panel. You add up to two DigiMax FS, for a total of twenty-four microphone preamplifiers all in only three rack spaces! Additionally word/clock I/O for ultra tight synchronization, MIDI I/O and SPDIF I/O are on the FireStudio for further expandability. JetPLL The sycronization of the FireStudio is handled by patented JetPLL jitter reduction technology. JetPLL incorporates noise shaping to virtually remove all audio band jitter. JetPLL ensures the highest converter performance possible, resulting in better stereo separation and clearer more transparent audio. JetPLL delivers ultra-fast locking to any digital format, through a wide range of frequencies and is extremely robust, and tolerant of wide variations in clock frequencies. JetPLL ensures near perfect clock performance when networking audio devices thus creating the most stable and robust synchronization to the computer and all devices synchronization with the FireStudio. Control Console - Zero Latency DSP Mixing/Routing The FIRESTUDIO also includes the Control Console - a 36x36x18 DSP mixer/router for flexible mixing and direct routing any input to any output including the headphone output, with zero latency. The Control Console software application lives between your FireStudio interface and your DAW software enabling the mixing and routing of input streams coming into your FireStudio interface and playback stream coming from your DAW software. The Control Console is capable of creating up to nine stereo mixes and then routing to the outputs of your FireStudio for headphone mixes and various aux sends. This way everyone in the band and the recording engineer can have a custom mix. Optional Monitor Station Remote (MSR) The optional MSR (monitor station remote) for the FireStudio is a complete surround/stereo speaker manager, input switcher and communication system delivering a more efficient and flexible work flow. The MSR connects to the FireStudio via standard Cat 5 Ethernet cable to keep your work space as clean as possible. There are also two headphone outputs on the FireStudio for even further flexibility and convenience. ProPak Complete Software Suite The PreSonus FireStudio also comes with the new ProPak Complete Software Suite, which includes more than 20 real time plug-ins, a number of virtual instruments and over 2 GB of drum loops and samples including: Steinberg - Cubase LE; Propellerheads Reason Adapted PreSonus Edition; IK Multimedia - Amplitube LE; FXpansion - BFD lite; Drumagog LE; Sonoma Wire Works-Riffworks Jr.; Wave Arts - TrackPlug LE, MasterVerb LE and more!

Customer Reviews  Great   by Tim from Philadelphia, PA, January 10, 2008 Music Background:  Recording, Live Sound, and Musician “Wow what a great product. You can't beat this package at this price point at all. The mic pre's are great as are the converters. I was blown away when i started doing projects with it. Im waiting for something to go wrong with them because of how little they cost. Everytime I use them they are perfect. If you are considering jumping into recording I couldn't think of a better package to get.” • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review Sweetwater Expert Advice     "We have a winner! With its combination of eight great sounding mic preamps, reliable performance, surprisingly good sounding converters, ultra-flexible analog and digital signal routing, DSP zero latency monitoring, great bundled software package, scalability, and optional monitoring controller, the FireStudio comes closer to the dream of a complete FireWire solution than any previous product. With so many great products these days, we don't get too many "no brainers", but this is one of them!" Derek Senestraro   "Amazing. Pristine sound quality meets incredible usability. PreSonus has struck gold with the FireStudio. Right out of the box, you've got a phenomenal interface with eight quality preamps and converters. Add the remote, and you can handle all your monitor management and have talkback as well. Need to expand later? Just add up to 16 MORE preamps with the DigimaxFS!! Top that off with the internal DSP routing, and you've got several latency-free headphone mixes. You'll be hard-pressed to find a better deal than this."
