An ideal "on-the-go" audio interface

With its compact size, you can pop the MOTU MicroBook II into a backpack on your way to the club or studio. It's the ideal interface if you're always on the go - and proof that the "smart devices" in our lives are indeed getting smaller, more feature-laden, and better-sounding!

Engineered for sound quality

MOTU has been at it for a while, now - since 1980, in fact - and knows what they're doing when it comes to pro audio. With support for 96kHz recording and playback, the sound quality of the MicroBook II rivals that of audio interfaces costing a whole lot more. That's amazing value.

Control CueMix with your iPad

MOTU's CueMix FX software, the mixing software that drives the powerful routing of the MicroBook II, can be controlled from your iPad. MOTU created CueMix templates for the TouchOSC controller app, giving you complete control over your MicroBook II's mixing and effects processing over a Wi-Fi network. This means that when you're recording in your studio, you don't need to keep going back to your computer to adjust gain levels, change monitoring effects, or virtually anything else you rely on CueMix for.

The features you need

In the design of the MicroBook II, MOTU took their popular Microbook and re-engineered it based on what pros were asking for: adding hands-on volume control, an XLR mic input, and six simultaneous outputs - and just about eliminating latency altogether. You also get a jack for your guitar, a stereo line-level analog input, CueMix FX no-latency mixing, and so much more. The sound, featureset, and form factor of the MicroBook II make an unbeatable combination.

MOTU MicroBook II USB Audio Interface Features:
  • 6 x 8 physical input/output channels
  • 8-bus digital mixer for routing and mixing live inputs with computer tracks
  • XLR pre-amp input, precision digital trim, 48V phantom power, 20dB pad
  • hi-Z guitar input with precision digital trim
  • Stereo line-level analog input (balanced 1/4" TRS or stereo mini)
  • CueMix FX no-latency mixing and monitoring with EQ and dynamics processing
  • 7-band parametric EQ and compression
  • Test tone and white/pink noise generator
  • Support for 96kHz recording and playback
  • Includes AudioDesk DAW software, USB cable, and mic cable adapter

The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
