Neumann MT48 Premium Audio Interface
Neumann MT48 DSP USB Audio Interface, Class-Leading AD/DA Converters with Huge Dynamic Range
Premium Audio Interface
Neumann - MT48
THE NEW BENCHMARKThe Neumann MT 48 is an audio interface made without compromise. Featuring huge dynamic range, superior converters, preamps and headphone amplifiers, it sets a new standards in audio quality. Internal DSP power allows for monitor mixes with sophisticated EQ and dynamics processing – all controlled using an intuitive touchscreen.
The MT 48 brings Neumann quality to the digital workflow, and is the first audio interface in its class that is able to capture the full dynamic range of Neumann microphones and is optimally matched to the KH-Line of studio monitors and Neumann headphones. The result is an pristine signal chain with uncompromising sound quality from the microphone diaphragm to your ears.
Amazing Features
• Class-leading AD/DA converters with enormous dynamic range
• 4 independant mixers with integrated talkback
• DSP processing (EQ, dynamics, reverb)
• Intuitive touchscreen user interface
• USB, ADAT and AES67 connectivity
Swiss Precision
DSP powerThe MT 48 was made in close cooperation with the Swiss manufacturer Merging Technologies, whose high-precision AD converters offer an incredible dynamic range of 136 dB. This gives the MT 48 four times the resolution of comparable audio interfaces.
The MT 48 comes fully equipped for the reference-class personal studio: two extremely low-noise mic/line preamps with up to 78 dB gain, two line/instrument inputs, four monitor/line outputs and two superb headphone outputs, each with state-of-the-art AD/DA converters. The MT 48’s connectivity may be expanded via ADAT / S/PDIF and AES67; a MIDI interface is also integrated.
Four separate monitor mixes can be controlled directly from the unit using the touchscreen. On-board processing includes a fully parametric 4-band EQ and a 3-way dynamics processor (gate/compressor/limiter) per channel as well as a high-quality reverb. So musicians get inspiring sound for top performances. There is also plenty of DSP power for future developments.
A New User Experience
Record With or Without EffectsThe MT 48 is both an audio interface and digital mixing desk in one. You can use its DSP processing for monitoring only, or you can print effects while recording. Or both at the same time! Thanks to the unique Dual Output Technology, wet and dry signals can be recorded simultaneously using separate driver channels. So, if needed, you can fall back on an unprocessed backup.
Despite its huge range of features, the MT 48 always remains easy to operate. All settings can be made on the device itself using the built-in touchscreen. The perfect monitor mix is only a touch away! Simply use your fingers to adjust pan pots, channel faders and much more, without having to switch to a mixer software on your computer. The MT 48 can even be used as a stand-alone mixing console.
The MT 48 leaves nothing to be desired: audio quality at the highest level, built-in DSP processing, comprehensive expandability, and convenient operation via touchscreen. The MT 48 is the missing link in the Neumann universe, connecting microphones, loudspeakers and headphones to create the ideal studio.
