Steinberg Advanced Integration 2 DSP Studio Firewire Interface

Featuring Advanced Integration with Cubase, outstanding I/O capabilities and first-class sound quality, the MR816CSX is a full-featured FireWire interface with built-in DSP that combines with Steinberg€s renowned Cubase music production system to form a latency-free recording and monitoring environment. The Advanced Integration between MR816 CSX and Cubase offers a unique and powerful production solution that fully mirrors Cubase functionality, adds DSP power for mixing, allows on-the-fly rerouting of input signals via Quick Connect, full integration into the Cubase user interface and much more. With 8 channels of sweet-morphing compression and a Yamaha REV-X reverb, the MR816 CSX is ideal for recording bands in rehearsal rooms or live gigs with a laptop, or building up a dedicated project studio or recording space. The intelligent plug and play handling means that Cubase automatically detects any attached MR816 hardware. And because the DSP FX run as VST3 plug-ins, these excellent plug-ins are available during mixing in Cubase, often replacing the need to purchase an additional DSP card. Excellent sound, great stacking options and a smooth, fast workflow are among the top priorities for studios using MR816 and Cubase as recording and production solution for their business. Connections required for studios like word clock, S/PDIF and ADAT are onboard, with the hardware inserts offering an ideal way of integrating boutique hardware units in the software realm. Features like Quick Connect allow on-the-fly rerouting by simply pushing a button on the MR816 front panel. Eight channel outputs offer full support for surround productions up to 7.1, ideally complemented by Steinberg€s fully multi-channel architecture and the Control Room features in both Cubase and Nuendo. Fully compatible with 32-bit & 64-bit operating systems, as well as any software application supporting ASIO and CORE AUDIO drivers.
