MOTU M64 Audio Interface with DSP and Mixing Overview:The M64 is a flexible MADI interface, router, repeater, splitter, converter and mixer with AVB/TSN networking. It is ideal for routing MADI digital audio streams in live performance systems, network installations or recording studios of any size.256 channels of MADI I/OThe M64 delivers optical MADI (64 channels in and out), plus independent coaxial MADI (64 channels in and out) with an extra duplicate BNC output, in all standard formats and sample rates.High-performance computer connectivityNew, optimized drivers for both Mac and PC deliver ultra-low latency performance. With a high-performance DAW such as Digital Performer, the M64 delivers an astonishing round trip latency (RTL) of 1.70 ms (milliseconds) on OS X and 1.71 ms on Windows over USB (at 96 kHz with a 32-sample host buffer).The ultimate MADI converter, router, splitter and repeaterSend any input to any output, or split to multiple output channels. Convert optical MADI to coaxial MADI. Route MADI streams to and from the computer, plus any devices on the AVB/TSN network.DSP mixing and effects processingThe M64’s 48-input digital mixer delivers 7 stereo aux busses, 3 groups, access to 64 network inputs, and DSP effects, including classic reverb, EQ modeled after British analog console EQs and compression modeled after the legendary LA-2A compressor. If you know your way around a large-format mixing console, you’ll feel right at home. With 32-bit floating point processing, the M64’s DSP engine delivers virtually unlimited headroom and the utmost in sound quality.Stand-alone operation with wireless controlConnect an Apple Airport or other Wi-Fi router with a standard Ethernet cable for wireless control of device settings, powerful 48-channel mixing and DSP effects.Web app controlThe software that you use to control the M64 doesn’t reside on your hard drive. It’s a web app served from the hardware itself. This means you can control the M64’s on-board DSP, mixing, and device settings from the web app software running in your favorite web browser on the computer, or even a tablet or smartphone on the same Wi-Fi network as your computer.Comprehensive MeteringThe full-color LCD lets you view all signal activity at a glance with detailed metering for all I/O. Access hardware setting from a simple and convenient menu.Word ClockStandard word clock input and output allows you to resolve the M64 to other digital audio gear or house sync.Convenient headphone monitoringUse the assignable front-panel headphone output with volume control to monitor any stereo channel pair.Mix and match with other MOTU gearAn included mounting bracket kit joins the M64 side-by-side with any other MOTU half-rack unit to create a single rack-space configuration consisting of customized analog, digital and/or MIDI I/O configuration tailored just for you.Audio analysis toolsAnalyze and scope your audio with advanced diagnostic tools, including a full-screen real-time FFT display, spectrogram “water- fall” display, full-featured oscillioscope, X-Y plot and phase analyzer.AudioDeskIncludes AudioDesk workstation software for Mac and Windows with 24-bit recording, sample-accurate editing and 32-bit mixing and masteringFeatures:256 channels of MADI I/OOptical MADI (64 channels in and out), plus independent coaxial/BNC MADI (64 channels in and out) with extra duplicate output, in all standard formats and sample rates.Flexible repeater, router, converter and splitterSend any input to any output, or split to multiple output channels.
