Arturia - AudioFuse 16 Rig

The Arturia AudioFuse 16 Rig is much more than just an audio interface. It's the ultimate studio heartbeat for demanding musicians and producers. Featuring 16 analogue inputs and 8 outputs, 16 ADAT inputs and outputs, 3 MIDI ports, ESS Sabre reference converters on the rear panel and Cirrus Logic converters on the front panel, the AudioFuse 16Rig offers unrivalled connectivity to meet all your needs.

This new version 2.0 now incorporates immersive audio monitoring, allowing up to 16 channels to be used by combining analogue and ADAT outputs. Support for Dolby Atmos up to 9.1.6, Auro-3D, 5.1, 7.1, quadraphonic and custom configurations paves the way for three-dimensional sound experiences. Precise control of volume, time alignment and bass management ensures optimum balance for each speaker, making it easy to integrate advanced mixing formats.

This jewel of technology can remain connected to the rear I/O while leaving the front panel connections available for additional microphones, instruments or devices, facilitating complex routing. What's more, with 8 editable routing presets, you can customise your configuration to suit your specific needs.

The AudioFuse 16Rig is more than just an audio interface. It can also function as a stand-alone mixer, becoming the backbone of your studio. When you connect it to your computer, it switches to audio interface mode, offering unrivalled connectivity and routing at a very affordable price.

Delivering exceptional sound quality, thanks to its ESS Sabre converters and luxury audiophile/home cinema DACs, the AudioFuse 16 Rig lets you enjoy musical, dynamic and accurate sound, without any colour alteration.

With this interface, Arturia has pushed back the limits of connectivity by packing an impressive arsenal of ports into a 1U rack, including 16 line inputs, 8 line outputs, a 3-port USB hub, three MIDI sockets and 4 ADAT sockets. There are also 2 front-panel mic/line preamps, a stereo Minijack input and two variable impedance outputs (line, instrument, headphone) as well as two headphone sockets.

Configuring the AudioFuse 16Rig is child's play, either via the AudioFuse Control Center (AFCC) software on your computer or directly on its OLED screen and navigation knob if you're using it independently, without a computer.

The Arturia AudioFuse 16Rig is the ideal solution for musicians surrounded by synthesizers, groove boxes, modular MPCs, or any other instrument. It's the audio interface and mixer you need to create, record and mix your music with exceptional quality. And it's top-of-the-range at a very reasonable price.
