The MOTU 828mk3 is an advanced FireWire
audio interface. Once again it raises the bar with innovative new
features, enhanced standard features that remain unique, superb sound
and reliable performance.
The MOTU 828 mk3 provides ten channels of pristine 192 kHz
analogue recording and playback, combined with sixteen channels of ADAT
digital I/O and stereo S/PDIF. Expand your system by connecting
additional MOTU FireWire audio interfaces or the 8pre mic input
expander.
The MOTU 828mk3 is equally well-suited for studio and stage,
with or without a computer. As an interface or standalone mixer, the
MOTU 828 mkIII provides 28 separate inputs and 30 separate outputs,
including dedicated main outs on XLRs and two front panel headphone
outs. Both mic/guitar inputs are equipped with V-Limit™, a
hardware limiter that helps prevent digital clipping from overloaded
input signals.
The MOTU 828 mk3 features include:
- CueMix FX™ - flexible 28 input/16 bus mixer with
on-board DSP effects, including reverb with sends/returns, plus EQ and
compression on every input and output.
- 28 inputs / 30 outputs (at 44.1/48 kHz) - there's no
channel sharing in the 828 mark3; the mic inputs, S/PDIF I/O, headphone
out and main outs are all handled as separate channels.
- Front-panel control - access any setting in your entire
828mk3 mix directly from the front panel.
- Stand-alone operation - program your mixes at the studio
and then bring the 828mk3 to your gig - no computer needed. Need to
tweak the mix? Do it on site using the back-lit LCD and front-panel
controls.
- Multiple CueMix FX mixes - for example, create different
monitor mixes for the main outs and headphones. Or add send/return
loops for outboard gear - with no latency.
- Two front panel combo jacks provide hi-Z 1/4”
guitar input or low-Z XLR mic input with phantom power, pad &
plenty of gain.
- Mic/guitar instrument sends - add your favourite outboard
EQ, preamp, reverb or other processor to the two mic/guitar inputs,
before the signal goes digital.
- Clip protection - Mic/guitar input limiter prevents digital
clipping and distortion from overloaded signal levels up to +12 dB over
zero.
- Eight 24-bit 192kHz analogue inputs and outputs on
balanced/unbalanced 1/4" TRS jacks
- Flexible optical I/O - 16 channels of ADAT lightpipe, 8
channels of SMUX (96 kHz) or two pairs of stereo TOSLink. Mix and match
formats between the two banks.
- Expandable - add additional interfaces for more I/O as your
needs grow.
- Separate XLR main outs and front-panel headphone jacks,
each with independent volume control.
- Word clock in and out
- SMPTE in and out
- Includes drivers for Mac & PC, including ASIO, WDM,
Wave, GSIF, Core Audio, and Core MIDI.
