PreSonus Studio 26c Desktop 2x4 USB Type-C Audio/MIDI Interface
Details:
Offering ultrahigh-resolution conversion, two pro-grade preamps, and a powerful software package, for vocalists, musicians, producers, and podcasters in home studios and mobile setups, the PreSonus Studio 26c desktop 2x4 USB audio/MIDI interface blends studio-quality sonic performance, liberating portability and refreshing ease of use.
With selectable 48V phantom power and two XMAX-L solid-state mic preamps fed via XLR-1/4" combo inputs, the Studio 26c can accommodate any source from condenser microphones and active DI boxes to electric instruments and line-level mixer outputs with clarity and natural tonality. All inputs and outputs feature quality converters that can operate at resolutions up to 24-bit / 192 kHz without sacrificing channel count or interface functionality.
Whether you monitor through speakers, headphones, or both, the Studio 26c provides equally ideal operability with its 1/4" headphone output, two main line/monitor outs, two additional line outputs, and independent main/headphone volume controls. The four line outputs are DC-coupled, so you can send MIDI sync and sequencer data from your DAW as CV (control voltage) to external analog synthesizers and drum modules.
The headphone mix can be sourced from outputs 1-2 or 3-4 via the A/B switch, a simple solution for getting a special cue mix to the artist. A quick press of the Mon button enables direct monitoring, mixing the latency-free analog input signal with the return from your computer. Unlike many budget interfaces, the Studio 26c sports 4-segment LED meters for both inputs and the main outs.
The 5-pin MIDI I/O jacks on the rear panel allow simple hookup with a MIDI controller, synthesizer, or groovebox, making the Studio 26c advantageous for beatmakers, keyboardists, and electronic music producers.
The bus-powered Studio 26c includes USB Type-C and USB Type-A cables for easy connectivity to your compatible macOS- or Windows-equipped computer. The interface is bundled with the robust and versatile Studio One Artist DAW software and the Studio Magic plug-in suite, delivering a host of effects, virtual instruments, and third-party loops, software, and instrument sounds to kickstart your creativity.
