Arturia AudioFuse Studio USB Audio Interface

USB-C Desktop Audio Interface with +71dB Preamps and Bluetooth

18-in/20-out USB-C Audio Interface with 4 Mic Preamps, 8 Line Inputs, 8-channel ADAT I/O, S/PDIF I/O, 2 Headphone Outputs, and Bluetooth Receiver - macOS/Windows

Building upon the success of the original AudioFuse, the Arturia AudioFuse Studio is an 18 x 20 audio interface created for the discerning professional who requires the sound of a high-end analog console with the flexibility of a solid mobile interface. Notable upgrades to the AudioFuse Studio include two additional microphone preamps (or four total), four inserts, and two auxiliary outputs, which double as a stereo reamp channel for rerecording guitar or bass, and an integrated Bluetooth receiver for wireless audio streaming. What's more, the Bluetooth receiver employs the highest codec, ensuring high-quality audio and performance for playback and tracking.

The AudioFuse Studio utilizes DiscretePRO microphone preamps, which rely on a discrete component topology to achieve studio-quality performance. A temperature-compensated oscillator controls the reference clock to ensure jitter-free analog-to-digital conversion and to provide remarkable transparency at sampling rates up to 192 kHz. There are no menus to dive through as every function is a single layer with dedicated knob and button controls.

Inputs 1-4 feature combo XLR/TRS 1/4" connectors for mic pres, line inputs, and instrument inputs, while inputs 5-8 use 1/4" connectors for line-level connections. Additionally, inputs 5 & 6 share a set of stereo RCA RIAA phono preamps with ground for connecting a turntable. Speaker output A and B offer two sets of stereo 1/4" outputs for connecting two sets of monitors, while the two dedicated headphone outputs feature independent volume control and offer both 1/4" and 1/8" jacks. The digital ADAT lightpipe ports add an additional eight channels of input and output, while two coaxial connectors offer S/PDIF and wordclock I/O.
