From Our Research Team:Rugged, Affordable, and Portable - a "Do-all" FireWire Interface!The M-Audio ProFire 610 is a potent FireWire interface. To start, you get a ton of I/O - 6-in/10-out - including two of M-Audio's renowned Octane microphone preamplifiers. The ProFire 610's eight TRS outputs and onboard DSP mixing technology allow you to create custom artist headphone mixes and route your audio to suit any set up. Dual headphone controls, an assignable master volume control, and standalone functionality add even more flexibility. Looking for a compact, "do-all" interface? Here it is: the M-Audio ProFire 610.M-Audio ProFire 610 FireWire Audio Interface at a Glance:
6x10 simultaneous analog/digital I/O The ProFire 610 from M-Audio delivers a wealth of I/O packed into its portable form factor. There are four analog inputs, eight analog outputs, and stereo digital S/PDIF, for a 6-in/10-out configuration. Two XLR/TS combo jacks are conveniently located on the front panel, for quickly patching in a microphone or hooking up a guitar. Then, there are two 1/4" TRS inputs on the rear for your line-level gear. Outputs come in the form of 1/4" TRS and there are eight outputs in all. What's more, there's even a built-in 1x1 MIDI interface on the M-Audio ProFire 610. Two premium Octane microphone preamplifiers Microphone preamplifiers are a huge factor in your sound. And fortunately, the ProFire 610 is loaded with two of M-Audio's premier Octane preamplifiers. They deliver clean sound with exceptionally low distortion and an extremely high signal-to-noise ratio, so you know your audio sounds incredible going in. Each preamplifier also has a tremendous 73dB gain range, a 20dB pad, and 48V phantom power. Flexible onboard DSP mixer The ProFire 610 is designed to be your recording partner. Thanks to its onboard DSP mixer and flexible TRS outputs, you can create up to five unique stereo mixes to give each artist in the band his or her own headphone mix. In fact, you can source the mixes from any of the hardware inputs and software returns simultaneously - and it's all easy to do in the ProFire's interactive software control panel. Plus, you can save any of your setups, so you can return to them later - perfect for ongoing mobile recording applications, house of worship environments, and quickly recalling your own favorite settings for recording yourself.

I was in the market for a high quality audio interface, and it all came down to the duet, and the Profire 610. I'm happy to say i choose the Profire 610 due to the fact you can use it with windows. ... read more [+]r />
February 7, 2011 Music Background: Producer, Engineer Unlike previous M-audio products the pre's and A/D/A converters are quite premium, i will say the duet's are better, but only by a couple of inches, everything else it wins in, the number of outputs are insane at this price. The ability to have two different headphone mixes are great as well. In the manual it states that you should not use the included AC adapter if your using bus power. That for this particular unit is a misprint in the manual. It is confirmed with M-audio engineers, that using the AC adapter plus bus power will yield more dynamic range on the mic pres. Bus power is just enough to get the unit to work, this bad boy is a bit power hungry to say the least. In conclusion it seems M-audio has decided to become a bit more serious in the pro-audio field, and this interface is making the right kind of noise for them. If your on a budget and need to be able to use a windows and mac machine, but don't want to sacrifice quality i grant you the Profire 610, its one of the few Swiss army knives of audio interfaces. close [-] AMAZING!!

I've been using the ProFire 610 since 2/2010. And for the most part, it's been rock solid. Used it originally with PC, and since Spring of 2010, I've been using it with Mac. No issues on either.

I owned an RME ADI-2 and I felt the difference in AD/DA conversion wasn't enough to warrant keeping the RME unit. I'll likely use this ProFire unit until it dies or I need to replace it because of compatible issues at some point in the future. Built quality is top-notch, and two years later the knobs all turn as smoothly as they did the day I pulled it out of the box. close [-]

For 400 bucks, it sounds very good. Substantially better than my fast track pro. No major complaints. You can customize master knob controls for whatever inputs you want btw.

I had this pitted against an E-MU 1616m which boasted ProTools HD 192 converters, and all I can say is I can't hear any significant difference in the sound.March 5, 2009 Music Background: Serious hobbyist For the price, its really 'u... read more [+]p there'. It's simple to use, easy to operate, mobile, good looking, and is a perfect solution for the home studio / mobile musician who does not need too many I/Os. close [-] Also popular
