Presonus ioStation 24c USB Interface

At A Glance: The Presonus ioStation 24c USB Interface combines their classic Faderport controllers with their award winning interfaces. The result is a compact two-channel audio interface with pre-mapped navigation and mix controls for Studio One and Ableton Live and compatibility with every popular DAW software. We love this design and seeing an audio interface with motorised mix controls built in is generally reserved for large studio applications. Features We Love:Mic Check 1 2As an audio interface, the ioStation is intuitive and versatile. Featuring two combi XLR/Jack inputs you'll be able to connect two microphones and provide Phantom Power when needed, or other instruments like keyboards and guitars. The ioStation also features a headphone output, and left and right monitor outputs for connecting to your speakers. What more could you need from a compact audio interface?Motorised FaderCreating, tweaking and recalling a mix is incredibly fast using the ioStation 24c. The Motorised fader follows automation points of your selected track just like a professional studio desk does and instantly jump to the correct points as you tab across each track in your session. The fader is incredibly detailed and allows you to record your movements onto the automation tracks with precision.Take ControlWith dedicated Session Navigator controls, the ioStation will massively improve your workflow. No longer will you have to take time to find the record button using your mouse, there's a big button for it on the front panel. Controlling playback and toggling on and off the loop function are now completely effortless. The multifunction encoder will make you wonder how you lived without it, giving you the ability to quickly scroll through your timeline, zoom in and out, navigate and drop markers and much much more. Studio One and Ableton Live IntegrationioStation 24c is pre-mapped and optimised for use with Ableton Live and Studio One, which means as soon as you plug it in and set it as a controller you're good to go. Every control is automatically mapped, meaning you can get recording and mixing straight away. DAW Compatibility ioStation 24c is also compatible with Logic Pro X, Cubase and Pro Tool svia the Mackie Control and HUI protocols. Meaning you can still take full control of the ioStation with your DAW of choice, but will need to map the parameters for your session.
