Winter NAMM 2002: MOTU 896

By Sweetwater on January 28, 2002

MOTU gave us the rundown on their new 896, a 96k FireWire audio interface for Mac and PC. We may have mentioned this one in InSync a short while ago, but this was the first time we had a chance to get the full scoop. Essentially, the 896 is a two rack-space 96 kHz FireWire audio interface with 8 channels of 24-bit analog I/O, 8 channels of ADAT optical digital I/O, 8 built-in mic pre-amps, AES/EBU digital I/O, word clock sync, and sample-accurate ADAT SYNC. Up to four 896s can be daisy-chained to a single computer for 72 channels of I/O.
