Analog performance is driven by decades of engineering expertise in audio interface technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThunderbolt™ and USB connectivity for Mac, PC and iOS\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 848 delivers cutting-edge Thunderbolt™ 4 and USB4 universal connectivity for Mac, PC and iOS. Connect your host device with the included 40 Gbps USB-C cable and the 848 negotiates the fastest possible connectivity speed, up to 40 Gbps, with backward compatibility for Thunderbolt 3, USB3 and USB2 host connections. Thunderbolt and USB4 connections deliver an astonishing 256 channels of computer I\/O (128 in and 128 out) at sample rates up to 96 kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e60 simultaneous audio channels\u003cbr\u003e\nConnect all your studio gear, including monitors, headphones, microphones, guitars, synths, keyboards, drum machines, outboard processors, optical expanders, and more. All 28 inputs and 32 outputs are available simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUltra-low latency performance\u003cbr\u003e\nOptimized drivers for both Mac and PC deliver renowned, ultra-low latency performance. With a high-performance DAW such as Digital Performer, the 848 delivers an astonishing round trip latency (RTL) of ~1.8 ms (milliseconds) over Thunderbolt and USB at 96 kHz with a 32-sample host buffer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlug and play ease with massive bandwidth\u003cbr\u003e\nDaisy-chain the 848 with up to six other Thunderbolt devices, all connected to your host computer with massive 40 Gbps bandwidth to easily handle hundreds of audio channels, 8K video, terabytes of hard drive storage, and more. Thunderbolt 4-compatible USB-C cable included (length = 2 meters).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTransparent mic channels and hi-Z guitar inputs\u003cbr\u003e\nCapture your recorded material in its truest, most natural form with -114 dB THD+N, 118 dB dynamic range and -129 dBu EIN performance. Each mic channel has individual preamp gain, pad, 48V phantom power and remote control from your computer or iOS device. Each combo jack alternately provides a 1\/4-inch high-impedance TS guitar input for DI tracking and reamping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExtra line inputs when you need them\u003cbr\u003e\nDo you work with compressors and other outboard gear? Mic inputs 3-4 each offer a dedicated analog send\/return loop, allowing for both mono or stereo mic channel outboard processing via fully balanced connections. If nothing is plugged in to a mic input, its return serves as an extra line input with identical signal characteristics to all other line inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eControl up to twelve analog outputs\u003cbr\u003e\nControl your 5.1 or 7.1.4 Atmos surround speaker system with a single fader. The Monitor Group gives you the flexibility to choose any analog outputs you wish to control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA\/B\/C speaker select and talkback\u003cbr\u003e\nTake control of your recording sessions with the front-panel talkback switch. Connect three sets of monitors and check your mixes instantly with front-panel A\/B\/C select buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e64-channel mixing with 32-bit floating point precision\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 848 is equipped with a 64-channel mixer designed just like a large format mixing console. The 64 inputs can take signal from anywhere: the physical inputs on the 848 interface itself, audio channels from host software on your computer, audio network streams, or even mixer outputs. The mixer provides 26 aux busses, plus main, reverb, monitor, and solo buses. All inputs and output buses provide 4-band double-precision parametric EQ and a compressor. Additionally, input channels include a High-Pass Filter and Gate. In essence: capable and transparent mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePoint-to-Point routing and splitting\u003cbr\u003e\nUsing intuitive, virtual patch cords, you can easily route any source signal to any destination. Sources can be analog or digital inputs on the interface, computer channels, mixer bus outputs, or audio network streams from other devices on the network. Destinations include interface outputs, host software inputs, mixer inputs, or any other device (or computer) on the network. You can even split any single source (or stereo pair) to unlimited multiple output destinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMatrix routing, splitting and patching\u003cbr\u003e\nFor complex workflows that involve routing and splitting at scale, the Routing Grid provides a global \"bird's-eye\" view of all the connections in your 848 system. Manage hundreds of audio channels quickly, at a glance. Check for signal with convenienct activity meters. Show and hide audio banks to customize your routing environment. Display destinations on either the right side or left side of the grid, as you prefer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFlexible system expansion\u003cbr\u003e\nAudio networking has come of age, delivering a world of possibilities. The 848 features an integrated AVB switch with two Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing you to daisy-chain multiple 848 and 16A units using standard network cabling. Alternatively, expand your network by connecting an external AVB switch to build a network with multiple interfaces, computers, and ultra-low network latency, even over long cable runs (hundreds of meters). Each 848 can transmit and receive 128 audio channels to and from the network. Stream hundreds of audio channels among devices and computers\u003cbr\u003e\non the network. The 848 is compatible with previous-generation MOTU AVB devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePerformer Lite\u003cbr\u003e\nPerformer Lite provides everything you need to record, edit, mix, process and master your own music tracks quickly and easily.
