PreSonus - STUDIO 1810C

Description

Designed for creative electronic music production.

Ideal for producers and small bands who want to record audio from a wide range of sources. A complete, all-in-one recording package, the Studio 1810c offers control-room integration with included Studio One Artist music production software and free UC Surface control software and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 3.0 connections.

The 18-in, 8-out Studio 1810c audio interface features USB-C computer connectivity and records up to 18 simultaneous inputs, including 4 microphone inputs with XMAX mic preamps, 4 dedicated line inputs, 8 channels of ADAT Optical input (4 channels at 96 kHz), and S/PDIF inputs. In addition to the main L/R outputs, you get four DC-coupled line-level outputs that can send control voltages. You also get two headphone outputs with A/B switching for monitoring different mix streams. A built-in MIDI interface enables connection to a keyboard, sound module, or control surface.
