Neumann MT 48 U – Desktop 12×12 USB-C Audio/MIDI Interface

Built in partnership with Merging Technologies and aimed at serious musicians, engineers, and producers, the Neumann MT 48 U is a desktop 12×12 reference USB-C audio/MIDI interface that ensures pristine sound quality throughout your entire signal chain—from input to output—so you get the very best out of your Neumann microphones, monitors, and headphones, or any other mic. With four times the resolution of similar interfaces, the MT 48’s high-precision AD converters deliver a staggering dynamic range of 136 dB-A, providing exceptional clarity and detail when recording with professional microphones. Two premium-quality mic/line preamps and two line/instrument inputs offer a remarkable 78 dB of gain, ideal for clean, ultralow-noise recording with condenser, tube, and dynamic microphones, or even low-output ribbons. Great for traveling musicians, the MT 48 U comes with a universal power supply that plugs into virtually any power outlet anywhere in the world.For ease of use and simpler workflow, the MT 48 U features a high-resolution, color touchscreen with an intuitive user interface. No more switching between hardware and software—all settings are made on the device itself. The built-in digital mixing console offers four separate monitor mixes with integrated talkback. Onboard DSP 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 for inspiring monitor mixes. As a unique feature, the MT 48 U offers Pre-FX and Post-FX recording, both at the same time. To accommodate larger setups, the interface can be expanded via ADAT / S/PDIF and AES67/RAVENNA, and also works as a bridge from USB to AES67. A MIDI interface is also integrated.
