New M-Audio M-track Eight interface 8 I/O for $399.-
I wrote about it within another thread yesterday but as I have found only positive reviews about it
and do think this could be a really interesting 8 micpres/I/O interface for $399.- I decided to additionally open a dedicated thread for it. http://m-audio.com/products/view/m-track-eight The M-Audio M-track Eight is a brand new unit which was introduced at Namm 2014 and has been on the market since summer 2014 and it offers pretty cool stuff for the price like 8 micpres/8 Line inputs 8 balanced Line outputs true zero latency simultaneously recording of 8 channels 24bit/96KHz dual headphone outputs on the front panel phantom power good quality Octane Technology preamps (Dynamic Range 112dB) Class Compliant Mode Mac 10.7.5 and higher/Win7, 8, 8.1 8-channel-mixer standalone mode Waves plugins included (AudioTrack, Eddie Kramer Effect Channel, TrueVerb, L1 Ultramaximizer, Manny Marroquin Delay) It seems to be of good quality and easy to use. Have a listen/look at first reviews. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEyQhcWBpTM http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5840368 Overview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yczrRVY5tjs Articles about it http://www.pro-tools-expert.com/home...interface.html http://www.keyboardmag.com/gear/1183...terfaces/49228 Class Compliant Mode makes it effortless and plain to use with Macs as there are no drivers needed which means no driver issues unlike with many other brands in this price range. What it obviously does not have is Midi but because of all those cheap USB Midi interfaces out there this is no serious problem actually. It seems to be pretty fresh on the market and at many online stores you only can kinda preorder it but there are some places it is already available from. USA http://www.pssl.com/!Kgvy7Kv-DzvBTkZ...udio-Interface http://www.bswusa.com/USB-Interfaces...-8-P10309.aspx http://www.romeomusic.net/m-audio-m-track-eight/ In europe there are more shops already to get it from. UK http://www.thomann.de/gb/m_audio_m_track_eight.htm http://www.amazon.co.uk/M-Audio-M-Tr...-M-Track-Eight http://www.andertons.co.uk/usb-inter...-interface.asp https://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/m-au...interface.html http://www.getinthemix.com/productio...rack-eight.htm Continental european countries (Germany, Austria etc.-Thomann store and Amazon.de deliver to most of the continental countries) http://www.thomann.de/de/m_audio_m_track_eight.htm http://www.amazon.de/M-Audio-M-Track.../dp/B0010SZIQM http://www.recordingladen.de/m-audio-m-track-eight.html http://www.recordcase.de/M-Audio+M-T...IGHT,i2389.htm So IMO this looks quite interesting and seems to be a nice piece of gear in this price range, a good alternative to Focusrite, Presonus etc. All the best everybody, the best of success, VRW Mac Mini i7Quad, 16GB Ram, MBP Mid 2012 2,5GHz i5, 16GB Ram, MacOS 10.10 Yosemite, Apogee Quartet+Duet 2, Genelec Active, Yamaha NS10, Pro Tools 11.2.1, Logic 10.0.7, Waves, MCDSP, Duende Native, Softube, HOFA, IK Multimedia, NI etc. Last edited by VRW; 10-30-2014 at 10:45 PM. |
