Conquer any recording session with professional studio quality and features!
The M-Audio AIR 192|14 is an 8-in 4-out feature-packed USB audio/MIDI interface that provides all of the connections and software you need to easily create professional 24-bit/192kHz studio-quality recordings. The AIR 192|14 features (4) XLR+¼” TRS combo inputs, (2) ¼” line inputs and (2) ¼” instrument inputs that have a specially designed gain and impedance stage to provide the most accurate representation of your guitar or bass when plugged directly into the interface. There is also MIDI input and output connections so you can connect any external midi gear that you may have such as external sequencers, drum machines and controllers.
Four onboard Crystal preamps
The AIR 192|14's four low-noise Crystal preamps build a solid foundation for any style recording. Clean and uncolored, M-Audio's Crystal preamps are a blank slate for your creative mix decisions down the road.
Latest-gen A/D converters
High headroom and low distortion are yours at every stage of the recording process, thanks to the AIR 192|14's current-gen A/D converters.
Direct inputs for guitar and bass
Twin front-mounted 1/4" instrument inputs equip the M-Audio AIR 192|14 for singer/songwriters to full ensembles. The included Eleven Lite FX suite gives you several virtual amp, cab, and stomp options to choose from, so you can leave your amp and pedalboard behind.
MIDI I/O for outboard gear
Take advantage of the included AIR virtual instrument suites when you pair your MIDI-equipped controller with the AIR 192|14. Two 5-pin MIDI to 1/8" adapters are included.
Rugged tabletop form factor
The M-Audio AIR 192|14's desk-friendly form factor puts all essential controls right at your fingertips, with an ergonomic tilt that improves visibility for desktop and remote use. A feature we at Sweetwater have enjoyed in all recent AIR interfaces is the large central volume knob, which is unmistakable and easy to access for setting desired monitoring levels. The all-metal chassis feels great underhand and is sure to hold up to location recording.
High-speed USB-C
USB-C protocol (also compatible with USB 2.0) gives the AIR 192|14 fast round-trip speeds — as low as 2.59ms — to minimize latency when you're tracking and monitoring.
