Steinberg MR816X DSP Firewire Audio Interface - Nearly New

Full Description

Advanced Integration production system

These revolutionary units provide complete 100 mirroring of hardware and software functionality. All aspects of I/O handling in the hardware as well as full control of the onboard VST3 DSP are engineered to meld straight into Cubase. When connected to an MR816 X interface, Cubase 4 generates additional panels for control of functionality from within the Cubase mixer as well as additional customized editor windows. Easy setup and true plug and play guarantee a lightning-fast setup experience, with automatic I/O setup creating all necessary routing automatically through templates. The benefits are extremely fast and intuitive workflow that handles software and hardware effectively as one system.

Class A preamps and revolutionary Quick Connect

The MR816 X features the latest generation of Yamaha's discrete 'D-Pre' Class A analog microphone preamps, combining XLR and TRS analog connectors. These outstanding preamps feature an advanced Inverted Darlington circuit design and electronics components specifically designed to deliver a sumptuously smooth and richly detailed sound. Another unique feature is Quick Connect, which allows instant routing and re-routing of inputs to Cubase channels from the front panel of the I/O with the push of a single button!

DSP Power and True Integrated Monitoring

On top of its excellent I/O capability, the MR816 X features an onboard DSP chip that runs renowned REV-X reverb, which is also featured on many top Yamaha hardware mixing consoles. Each independent monitor mix can utilize the DSP capability to add an excellent reverb that every performer will feel extremely comfortable performing to. Optionally, the FX can be included in the signal recorded to the input track. The signal can, of course, also be recorded dry with no FX or bypassed completely. The Advanced Integration of MR816 X in Cubase goes even further. The REV-X reverb is also available as VST3 plug-in in Cubase when mixing! This adds additional first-class FX capability that is available even when the computer?s CPU is running under a high load. For Cubase owners, MR816 X combines not only outstanding I/O capability, extremely easy handling and no-latency monitor mixing, but also a powerful DSP capability a peerless combination with an almost unbeatable price/performance ratio.

The MR816 X features three types of reverb effects Hall, Room and Plate simulations with reverb time and level control. Reverb Time and Level can be controlled either through Cubase or from the front panel of the MR 816 X. This superlative reverb processor also featured on Yamaha?s premiere digital consoles is ideal for monitoring mixes for performers, but also adds a further excellent reverb to your available VST plug-ins on mixdown.

Musicians/Producers/Studios

MR816 X is ideal for recording bands in rehearsal rooms or live gigs with a laptop, or building up a dedicated project studio or recording space. Excellent sound, great stacking options and a smooth, fast workflow are among the top priorities for studios using MR and Cubase as recording and production solution for their business. Connections required for studios like Wordclock, S/PDIF and ADAT® are onboard, with the hardware inserts offering an ideal way of integrating boutique hardware units in the software realm. Eight channel outputs offer full support for surround productions up to 7.1, ideally complemented by Steinberg's fully multi-channel architecture and the Control Room features in both Cubase and Nuendo.
