Motu 896HD

Features:

• CueMix DSP latency-free monitoring system.
• Stand-alone operation - program your mixes at the studio and then bring the MOTU 896HD to your gig - no computer needed.
• Multiple CueMix DSP mixes - create different monitor mixes for the main outs and headphones. Add send/return loops for outboard gear - with no latency. Up to four separate mixes are supported (two at 176.4 or 192kHz).
• Eight mic pre-amps with switchable 48-volt phantom power and front-panel trim controls.
