A Host of Routing Options with the ProFire 2626!
With a sleek black look, the ProFire 2626 is true to its name, delivering 26 x 26 channels of simultaneous I/O. No matter what connections you need to make, the Pro Fire2626 has you covered, offering eight analog inputs, complete with M-Audio's acclaimed Octane preamps. You can use the ProFire 2626 directly as a standalone FireWire interface, or you can hook it up to your 003 or any ADAT-ready interface, using it as an eight-channel lightpipe mic pre! M-Audio has a hit with the ProFire 2626!

M-Audio ProFire 2626 at a Glance:
  • Eight Octane preamps for great sound
  • Onboard DSP mixer for flexible routing
  • FireWire interface that doubles as an ADAT mic pre
  • High resolution sound with multiple ins and outs
  • M-Powered compatible

Eight Octane pre-amps
Great sound depends on the quality of your preamps, and the ProFire 2626 delivers a whopping eight of M-Audio's award-winning Octane preamps. Each preamp has a generous 75dB gain range, a -20dB pad, and phantom power that you can switch on channels 1-4 or 5-8. Whether you're using your favorite dynamics, ribbons, or condensers, you can get great sound for the whole band through the ProFire 2626.

Onboard DSP mixer for flexible routing
M-Audio understands that not every recording situation is the same. With an onboard DSP router, you can select from up to 52 streams of audio and then send them to any of the 26 hardware outputs by routing in stereo pairs. Select from any of the 26 hardware inputs and 26 software returns and make them sources for any of the ProFire 2626's 18 input channels and create up to eight stereo mixes. With the ProFire 2626, you can create favorite presets and recall them whenever you like.

Highly versatile
You can use your ProFire 2626 as a standalone eight-channel preamp, an eight-channel A/D-D/A converter, as well as a digital format converter. When in standalone mode, the eight analog inputs route to the ProFire 2626's frist eight ADAT optical output channels, making it easy to use line, instrument, and mic ins with other digital gear! By accepting optical ADAT input, the ProFire 2626 can route those eight channels to its eight analog outputs, providing D/A functionality as well. Adding even more flexibility, the ProFire 2626 can convert coaxial S/PDIF to optical S/PDIF.

High sound quality with tons of ins and outs
With high-quality converters, the ProFire 2626 delivers sampling rates up to 192kHz. Acclaimed JetPLL technology provides stable synchronization and works to eliminate jitter that can otherwise reduce audio quality. the ProFire 2626 allows master or slave operation via its internal clock, and its internal drivers deliver ultra-low latency. With ADAT lightpipe in and out, 2 x 2 S/PDIF digital I/O, on top of XLR and 1/4" TRS line inputs, with 1/4" instrument jacks on the front panel, the ProFire 2626 is readily equipped to handle your recording needs.

M-Powered compatible
With Pro Tools M-Powered and an M-Audio interface, like the ProFire 2626, you can work anywhere, anytime with the industry standard in music production software. You can open sessions created in Pro Tools M-Powered software with any Windows XP or Mac OS X Digidesign Pro Tools TDM or LE system, giving you unprecedented production options for your music. The latest version of Pro Tools M-Powered streamlines MIDI production with the introduction of Instrument Tracks, support for multi-processor use with RTAS plug-ins for increased performance, and a load of other performance-enhancing upgrades.

“Very Nice!

My very first Firewire interface. I have used the 002 and others when I lived in Nashville. For me, this is WORTH every dollar and every hour of research. I was thinking of getting two other company's products (Pre Sonus and MOTU) but considering the Pro Tools compatibility, I certainly made the right choice.
