Description of MTRACK8:
Add a professional edge to your studio
Add a professional edge to your studio with the M-Track Eight from M-Audio. This
eight-input USB 2.0 audio interface enables you to track large music ensembles,
record the band, or mic an entire drum set with pro-grade audio components and a
myriad of connections. Eight combo XLR+1/4" inputs accommodate nearly any
source, from phantom-powered microphones to your favorite guitar, and eight
dedicated outputs offer versatile playback options. The XLR inputs are designed
to work with microphones and other Lo-Z sources, and the phantom power switch
enables you to use condenser microphones by delivering 48v phantom power to the
XLR inputs (Channels 1-4; 5-8). M-Track Eight also has two conveniently located
inputs on the front panel that can be switched to allow instrument-level
signals, so you can plug your electric guitar or bass directly into M-Track
Eight and start recording. Individual gain knobs with meters help ensure the
proper input level by providing real-time visual feedback.
Pro-Grade Audio
M-Track Eight features pristine and precise audio recording with up to 24-bit/96
kHz resolution. Each input channel is equipped with a high-headroom input that
features M-Audio's sought-after Octane Preamp Technology. The result is a robust
signal path for clean, professional sound. In addition, each input comes with
dedicated line-input circuitry so you can record and track with your favorite
external preamps.
Improved Monitoring for Better Recording Sessions
M-Track Eight offers ultra-low latency monitoring of the input signal—either
through the speakers or via headphones. The USB/Analog Direct Balance knob
adjusts the balance between the direct inputs and the playback from your
computer software for accurate monitoring during tracking and recording
sessions. Flexible output routing lets you send signals to outboard gear or
analog mixers for summing or processing. Additionally, two headphone outputs,
located on the front panel, have their own level and selectable-source controls
for creating custom headphone mixes.
Immediate Studio Integration
In addition to outstanding audio performance, M-Track Eight connects to your
computer via USB 2.0 and easily integrates into your studio with its standard 1U
19” rack size. With a single USB cable, M-Track Eight creates a two-way audio
connection with your Mac or PC, enabling you to record directly into your
favorite DAW or playback audio to mix and master your tracks. Plus, Cubase 7 LE
comes bundled with M-Track Eight for out-of-the-box music creation and gives you
a powerful software environment to record, edit, and bounce down your songs.
Professional Sound With Waves
The M-Track Eight software suite also includes an impressive selection of plugin
effects from Waves Audio Ltd. TrueVerb delivers a broad, natural reverb with an
easy-to-use interface. AudioTrack offers a remarkable EQ, plus gating and
compression. Plus, you can add a professional touch with the Eddie Kramer
Effects Channel, created with legendary audio guru Eddie Kramer. World-renowned,
L1 Ultramaximizer offers look-ahead peak limiting, level maximization, and high
resolution re-quantization in one powerful plugin. Add depth & dimension while
enhancing the groove with Manny Marroquin Delay.
