Presonus Studio 1824C USB-C Audio Interface

PreSonus® has been a pioneer in high-channel audio interfaces and has spent the last 20 years creating the best audio interfaces for recording large sessions. Building on this legacy, the Studio 1824c delivers stunning sound quality with eight of PreSonus' lauded XMAX analog microphone preamps built-in and pristine 24-bit 192 kHz conversion. Add two low-noise instrument preamps, balanced line-level inputs, and an ADAT input for adding 8 more channels whenever you need them, and you have an audio interface ready to record virtually any session.

When you have the right tools, any job is easier and faster to finish. PreSonus' high-quality converters and professional-grade XMAX microphone preamplifiers capture complex musical harmonics smoothly and naturally, without audible distortion. XMAX microphone preamps deliver incredibly high headroom, deep lows, smooth highs, and a rich overall sound, so you'll hear every breath, transient, and detail in your recordings. Professional input and output metering allows you to keep an eye on your levels. A flexible DSP mixer lets you create four discrete monitor mixes with near-zero latency. Front-panel Mute, Mono, and level controls allow you to work with your main mix.

Whether you're upgrading your studio or building a new space for your band's recording, the Studio 1824c has you covered with superior microphone preamps, expandable inputs, and powerful, easy-to-use onboard monitor mixing to give you the world-class results you want.
