The PreSonus Studio 1824c is a high-performance USB-C audio interface designed for musicians, producers, and audio engineers who need flexibility and professional sound quality for multi-track recording. With its extensive I/O capabilities, quality preamps, and DAW integration, the 1824c provides a versatile solution for home and project studios that require reliability, ease of use, and expandability.
Key Features Extensive I/O Configuration: The Studio 1824c provides 18 inputs and 18 outputs, making it capable of handling complex setups. This includes eight analog inputs with XMAX Class A preamps, eight balanced outputs, stereo main outputs, ADAT and S/PDIF digital I/O, and two dedicated headphone outputs with individual volume controls. This makes the interface perfect for recording multiple instruments, vocalists, or a combination of both.
High-Quality XMAX Preamps: The eight XMAX preamps deliver low-noise, high-headroom gain with a warm, clear sound, suitable for both vocals and instruments. These preamps are designed for transparent audio capture, providing the dynamic range needed for accurate sound reproduction, especially in multi-mic setups.
Low-Latency Monitoring and DSP Mixing: The 1824c comes with PreSonus’s UC Surface software, allowing for zero-latency monitoring with a flexible DSP mixer. This makes it easy to create custom mixes for monitoring, ideal for sessions with multiple musicians or complex routing needs.
Studio One Artist DAW Integration: Bundled with the 1824c is Studio One Artist, a powerful DAW by PreSonus with intuitive drag-and-drop functionality. The interface also integrates seamlessly with other major DAWs, providing users with flexibility in choosing their preferred software while benefiting from the Studio One Artist package and additional plug-ins.
MIDI I/O: The interface includes MIDI input and output, allowing connection to MIDI devices such as synthesizers, drum machines, or control surfaces. This enhances its versatility, especially for users incorporating both analog and digital elements into their workflow.
Expandable with ADAT: The 1824c’s ADAT input/output allows users to add up to eight additional channels through an external preamp with ADAT connectivity, making it scalable for larger projects without the need to upgrade to a more costly interface.
Rugged and Rack-Mountable Design: Built to last, the 1824c has a robust metal chassis, suitable for both studio and live environments. It is rack-mountable, making it easy to integrate into larger setups, and features an organized front panel layout, with convenient access to all primary controls and metering.
Includes Power Supply.
