Rated 5 out of 5

King of the 2i2s

Preamp is better than anything in it's category, driver support is great and having visual dB meters is a luxury you never thought you needed. Simply put, at this price point, nothing comes close to the quality of the MOTU.

Fantastic audio interface

Work like a charm, easy to install. It?s nice having an on/off switch for the interface when not in use. Having separate volume knobs for headphone and monitor is great. Easily one of the best audio interfaces you can get at this price range.

Great sound & display

We?re using this to livestream worship receiving an XLR from the soundboard, using the direct monitor out for those in our video booth to hear, and we really like the great display for keeping the levels clear so we know when adjustments need made so that we get the best possible sound for those worshipping online. Huge improvement in usability and sound quality over the Zoom H4n we were using previously. Highly recommend.

Great combination of features, quality and price!

The controls are well thought out and the feature set and quality very nice at this price point. It works well in my set up using Logic. I find the headphone amp has plenty of power for my headphones. I also appreciate the level metering which is very functional and easy to see.

Best in class AI

It was recommended that I get an Audient but the Windows drivers from them are horrible and I lost a lot of studio time with the failures and service tickets. Back to Youtube reviews! This kept coming up as a good one and I asked around about Windows compatibility. That plus the really smart ergonomics, the midi in-out, superior level meters, independent phantom power and monitoring buttons for L and $, and now that I have it, the solid build quality, make me a very happy customer.

MOTU M2 A Quality Component To Recommend

By CLIFFORD K.

MOTU M2 excellent component. Quality build, fully featured, cool design. Use for various applications: podcast, zoom meetings, recording voice and instrument. Definitely recommend.

Before diving into the world of professional audio production, consider the MOTU M2 Desktop 2x2 USB-C Audio Interface Bundle, a comprehensive package designed to elevate your recording experience. This bundle includes the MOTU M2 audio interface, two H&A AC50 Cardioid Dynamic Microphones, two professional monitor headphones, two broadcast arms, and two 15-foot XLR M to XLR F mic cables, providing everything you need for a complete setup.

The MOTU M2 audio interface stands out with its best-in-class audio quality, speed, and metering capabilities. At the heart of its superior sound is the ESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC technology, renowned for delivering exceptional analog sound quality. This technology, typically found in high-end audio interfaces, ensures a remarkable 120 dB dynamic range on the main outputs. The headphone output, driven by the same ESS converters, offers performance comparable to dedicated headphone amplifiers, ensuring pristine audio clarity.

The M2's ultra-clean preamp circuits achieve a measured -129 dBu EIN on mic inputs, allowing you to capture and monitor audio with exceptional clarity. Whether you're recording vocals, instruments, or podcasts, the M2 ensures your sound is captured with precision.

Speed is another hallmark of the M2, thanks to MOTU's expertly engineered USB drivers. These drivers deliver ultra-low 2.5 ms round-trip latency at 96 kHz with a 32-sample buffer, making it ideal for monitoring live inputs such as microphones, guitars, or keyboards through your computer.

Achieving optimal levels during recording and mixing is crucial, and the M2 excels with its full-color LCD screen featuring detailed level meters for all inputs and outputs. This professional-level metering provides clear volume control and feedback, ensuring your sound is perfectly balanced.

The M2 also offers convenient loopback channels, allowing you to route computer output back to your host computer. This feature is perfect for mixing live mics and guitar inputs with computer tracks for seamless live streaming or podcasting.

Versatile and portable, the M2 is perfect for various applications:
- Home Studio: Transform your bedroom or home office into a professional recording studio.
- On Stage: Mix live mic and guitar inputs with computer tracks for live performances.
- On Location: Utilize bus power from your laptop to record anywhere.
- On the Road: Its rugged and compact design makes it ideal for travel.
- Podcasts: Create high-quality podcasts with ease.

MOTU's tradition of engineering excellence is evident in every aspect of the M2, drawing from decades of experience in producing award-winning products for hit songs, mega tours, primetime shows, and blockbuster movies.

Included with the M2 is a suite of workstation software and virtual instruments to jumpstart your music production. Connect the M2 to your Mac or PC and start creating with Performer Lite or Live Lite production software. These programs come with hundreds of loops, one-shots, and sounds from industry leaders like Big Fish Audio, Lucidsamples, and Loopmasters.

MOTU Performer Lite: This software offers everything you need to record, edit, mix, process, and master your music tracks. With over 100 virtual instruments and dozens of effects plug-ins, you can easily plug in your mic, guitar, and MIDI keyboard to start tracking.

Ableton Live Lite: A streamlined version of Ableton Live 10, this software provides essential workflows, instruments, and effects for recording songs and creating music hands-on with your controller.

With over 100 virtual instruments, including pianos, guitars, drums, and orchestral instruments, Performer Lite allows your creativity to flourish. Additionally, you receive 6 GB of free loops and sample packs from top sample content providers, enabling you to start making music immediately.

The MOTU M2 Desktop 2x2 USB-C Audio Interface Bundle is your gateway to professional audio production, offering unmatched quality, speed, and versatility for all your recording needs.
