Presonus Studio 26c 2X4 USB-C / 24-bit/192kHz, w/2 Mic inputs, Studio One Artist
The Studio 26c produced by Pre-Sonus is a 2x4 USB Type-C audio/MIDI interface that is offering high-resolution conversion and a powerful software package for musicians, vocalists, and podcasters in home/project studios and mobile setups. Connect microphone-, instrument-, or line-level sources via two XLR-1/4" combo inputs, each utilizing its own gain control and XMAX-L solid-state microphone preamp with selectable phantom power. The Studio 26c is operated at up to 24-bit / 192 kHz resolution without sacrificing channel count or interface functionality.
The Pre-Sonus Studio 26c has four balanced 1/4" line outputs; the two are fed by a dedicated level control for using with a pair of active monitors. 5-pin MIDI I/O jacks on the rear panel permit easy hookup of a synthesizer, MIDI controller, or sound module. A TRS 1/4" stereo headphone output with a front-panel volume knob is paired with a set of headphones.
The bus-powered Studio 26c includes USB cables for easy connectivity to your compatible macOS or Windows computer. Also supplied is a software bundle featuring the Studio One Artist DAW and the Studio Magic plug-in suite—a slew of creative tools for producers, engineers, song-writers, and more.
