Description of STUDIO 68C:

Professional quality for small and mid-sized studios.
An excellent choice for small bands, producers, and small and mid-sized studios, the Studio 68c 6-in, 6-out, USB-C™ compatible audio interface records at up to 192 kHz. You get two mic/line/instrument and two mic/line inputs, all with PreSonus® XMAX mic preamps, plus DC-coupled line outputs and MIDI I/O. A complete, all-in-one recording studio, the Studio 68c comes with PreSonus’ award-winning Studio One® Artist music production software for macOS® and Windows® and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 3.0 connections.

World-class recording software included.
Seamlessly integrated with the included PreSonus Studio One Artist music production software, the Studio 68c interface works with virtually all macOS and Windows recording software. Easy to learn, Studio One enables you to compose, record, and produce without getting distracted by the tools. Need a new loop or sample for your latest production? Studio One lets you shop, audition, and purchase new content right from your production environment.

Take the tour.
The 6-in, 6-out Studio 68c audio interface features USB-C™ compatible computer connectivity and includes 2 combo mic/instrument/line inputs and 2 combo mic/line inputs with +48V phantom power for condenser mics, plus S/PDIF digital I/O. All four ¼-inch TRS, line-level outputs are DC coupled, enabling them to send control voltages. A Cue Mix A/B function lets you toggle between two mixes while monitoring through headphones—perfect for DJs and to listen in on a performer’s monitor mix. The Studio 68c’s built-in MIDI interface enables connection to a keyboard, sound module, or control surface.

Superior sound.
The Studio 68c operates at up to 192 kHz for ultra-high-definition recording and mixing. High-quality converters on every input and output and PreSonus’ professional-grade XMAX mic preamps deliver incredibly high headroom, deep lows, smooth highs, and a rich overall sound.

Whether you need a high-quality audio interface for DJing, are a veteran producer, or both, the Studio 68c will give you the ultra-high-def sound and versatile connectivity you need to make state-of-the-art recordings and perform them live. While it’s a perfect companion for any recording software, the Studio 68c and included Studio One Artist provide you with a complete, affordable, mobile recording studio.

How To Set Up Your ROCKSHIELD 4:

Video of ROCKSHIELD 4:

Includes:

• 2 Panel Microphone Isolation Shield
• Hardware to Mount unit to your mic stand
• 5/8” Mic Adapter
• Attachment to connect a desktop mic

Description:

Rockville’s Rockshield 4 studio microphone isolation shield is the latest addition to our ever growing line of Pro Audio studio accessories. Featuring 2-inch-thick high-density acoustic foam; the RockShield 4 keeps unwanted outside audio waves and vibrations from affecting your recording. This model uses a vertical slot design that will increase the surface area of the foam and it will also allow for better sound absorption. 

The panels are set up in such a way that creates a 2-way level of protection. Sounds coming from in front of the foam will be absorbed while sounds coming from the back will be deflected away.

By creating an acoustic boundary around the mic the vocal audio flow is improved and your voice is redirected to the microphone while room reflections are prevented from directly entering the recording area.

This is the perfect accessory to turn any room into a recording booth. The result is you will achieve crisper and cleaner sound. This shield can be mounted to any microphone stand or it can be used on a desktop.
