The M-Audio M-Track Eight is an 8-channel USB 2.0 audio interface designed for multi-track recording in project and professional studios. Eight XLR+1/4-inch combo inputs with individual metering capture drum kits, bands, podcasts and live sessions in pristine 24-bit/96 kHz quality, powered by high-headroom Octane preamp technology. Two front-panel instrument inputs give guitarists and bassists easy access, selectable phantom power (channels 1-4 and 5-8) supports condenser microphones, and dedicated line-input circuitry keeps recordings clean. Dual headphone outputs with selectable source let artists and engineers monitor custom mixes simultaneously, while eight balanced 1/4-inch outputs plus a dedicated control-room output feed outboard gear and multiple monitor pairs. Zero-latency monitoring via the USB/Analog Direct Balance control keeps overdubs tight, and the standard 1U 19-inch rack chassis with durable metal construction slots neatly into any rack. The M-Track Eight is an excellent central recorder for studios, churches and live-tracking rigs in Nairobi.
