Full Description

M-Audio AIR 192 4 Audio Interface

Record at home with ease

Once you plug the AIR 192 4 audio interface into your computer, you can expect super high-quality outputs and clean and transparent recordings. This sleek unit is designed with portability and quality in mind. This intuitive device sits atop your desk and allows you to plug in microphones, instruments, and effects units. As well as beautiful recordings, it also outputs clean audio through either stereo outputs or headphones. It delivers zero-latency monitoring through direct output. As well as sounding great it's also very easy to use; the central knob is nice and tactile, and the onboard gain controls respond nicely to change.

Super clean preamps

No matter how big your studio is - you always deserve amazingly clean and transparent audio. The M-Audio AIR 192 4 delivers this with aplomb thanks to the superb Crystal Preamps. These preamps guarantee the best possible sound from your microphone and capture your performance perfectly. The AIR uses very clean A/D converters for 24-bit resolution digital audio and has a huge dynamic range that can pick up on every nuance of your playing.

Get started with great software

If you're getting started in the world of music production then you're in luck. With every purchase of the M-Audio AIR 192 4 Audio Interface, you are entitled to a selection of pro audio software. Firstly, get started with the Avid Effects collection which gives you a range of tools to get your music sounding exactly how you want it to. And on top of this - you can also use 2GB of Touch Loops content - these loops help you formulate ideas when you start a new track.

M-Audio BX5-D3 Studio Monitors

Premium-grade design, high-end sound reproduction

Not only have the BX5-D3’s been designed with military grade materials, but also with military precision. The 5” Kevlar woofer is the ideal material to produce high quality sound, being both rigid enough to project low end frequencies and light enough to give clear transient responses. The 1” dome tweeter is also made of silk, for an incredibly fast response, meaning the high frequencies are reproduced with clear definition, allowing you to hear every part of your mix.

The speaker casing has been carefully designed for its purpose. The tweeter sits within a custom waveguide, allowing for a controlled dispersion of sound, instead of just pockets of high end like other speakers. The rear-mounted bass port is also designed to give a defined bass response and extension. This means the BX5-D3 can make a truly full 3D soundscape.

Acoustic positioning made easy

The BX5-D3’s have been developed to give tremendous sound reproduction in any environment. If used in a small room, bass frequencies can build up corners and bounce off surfaces. This gives the false impression of too much or too little bass in your mix, meaning it will not translate to other systems or environments well. The Acoustic Space Control feature offers 3 types of low frequency attenuation (56Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz), allowing you to get a clear representation of low end clarity in your mix.

A blue LED on the front of the monitors is designed to find the best listening position as easy as possible, the blue LED will shine at it’s brightest when you have found the sweet spot. This allows for uncompromised accuracy and critical evaluation, to truly get the best out of your production.

Bi-amplified power with tons of headroom

Both the tweeter and woofer in the BX5-D3s are independently powered by their own Class A/B internal amplifiers. Each amplifier has been tailored to the frequency range it handles, whilst still complimenting the other amplifier. With a finely-tuned crossover point, this guarantees each driver handles the frequencies it is meant to, making for powerful and cohesive sound.

These are M-Audio’s most efficient monitors to date. Boasting a collective 100 watts of power, headroom is no problem for the D3’s. The higher headroom allows for the volume to be increased, without any distortion of the sound. The additional power not only means you can listen to your mixes at a slightly louder level for referencing (we do not recommend listening at a high level for long time periods), but they are also great to use as general media speakers.
