Neumann MT 48 EU

Built in partnership with Merging Technologies and aimed at serious musicians, engineers, and producers, the Neumann MT 48 EU is a desktop 12x12 reference USB-C audio/MIDI interface that ensures pristine sound quality throughout your entire signal chain—from input to output—so you get the very best out of your Neumann microphones, monitors, and headphones, or any other mic. With four times the resolution of similar interfaces, the MT 48’s high-precision AD converters deliver a staggering dynamic range of 136 dB-A, providing exceptional clarity and detail when recording with professional microphones. Two premium-quality mic/line preamps and two line/instrument inputs offer a remarkable 78 dB of gain, ideal for clean, ultralow-noise recording with condenser, tube, and dynamic microphones, or even low-output ribbons. Great for traveling musicians, the MT 48 EU comes with a universal power supply that plugs into virtually any power outlet anywhere in the world. 
For ease of use and simpler workflow, the MT 48 EU features a high-resolution, color touchscreen with an intuitive user interface. No more switching between hardware and software—all settings are made on the device itself. The built-in digital mixing console offers four separate monitor mixes with integrated talkback. Onboard DSP includes a fully parametric 4-band EQ and a 3-way dynamics processor (gate/compressor/limiter) per channel as well as a high-quality reverb for inspiring monitor mixes. As a unique feature, the MT 48 U offers Pre-FX and Post-FX recording, both at the same time. To accommodate larger setups, the interface can be expanded via ADAT / S/PDIF and AES67/RAVENNA, and also works as a bridge from USB to AES67. A MIDI interface is also integrated.

The Perfect Link

• From the proverbial bedroom studio, location work, and broadcast applications to professional recording, the MT 48 U true reference interface brings Neumann quality and Merging Technologies Swiss precision to the digital workflow. Capable of capturing the full dynamic range of Neumann microphones, it is optimally matched to the KH-Line of studio monitors. The result is an ideal signal chain without any bottlenecks: uncompromising sound quality from the microphone diaphragm to your ear.
• The two, built-in headphone amplifiers are powerful and ultra-low impedance, ideal for driving the best headphones Neumann has to offer, such as the NDH line.

Intuitive User Experience with Large Touchscreen

• The ideal companion for self-recording musicians, the MT 48 U is easy to operate. All settings can be made on the device itself via the built-in, high-resolution color touchscreen. Simply use your fingers to adjust pan pots, channel faders, and much more, without having to switch to a mixer software on your computer.
• The MT 48 U has a built-in talkback mic for easy communication from the control room to the live room.
• The MT 48 U can even be operated standalone as a mixing console.
