Neumann was frustrated that the qualities of their microphones, monitors and headphones were not being sufficiently highlighted in the recording chain, even in well-equipped studios. With its exceptional mic and headphone preamps, and its converters, the Neumann MT 48 digital audio interface is the missing link. It has no rival in terms of dynamic range, mic gain, headphone preamps (even external ones). It buries all competition!

The MT48 is a resolutely no-compromise interface, equipped with high-end converters, preamps and headphone amplifiers, offering an impressive dynamic range of 136dB, thus setting new standards in terms of sound quality. The powerful internal DSP allows for sophisticated mixes with an EQ and dynamics processing controlled intuitively via the touch screen. The MT 48 brings renowned Neumann quality to your digital workflow and is capable of capturing the full dynamic range of Neumann microphones, perfectly matching the KH-Line studio monitor range and Neumann headphones. With ADAT / S / PDIF and AES67 connectivity, as well as the built-in MIDI interface, you can easily expand the MT 48's connectivity.

The MT 48 is the result of a close collaboration with Swiss manufacturer Merging Technologies, whose high-precision analog converters deliver an incredible 136 dB dynamic range. This is four times the resolution of comparable audio interfaces, giving the MT 48 exceptional precision and clarity. The interface also features two low-noise mic/line preamps and extensive connectivity, allowing for superior sound quality recordings.

Easily control up to four separate monitor mixes directly from the interface using the touchscreen. Built-in DSP processing includes a 4-band parametric EQ and a 3-way dynamics processor (gate/compressor/limiter) per channel, as well as high-quality reverb, giving musicians an inspiring sound for top-level performances. DSP processing can be used for monitoring only or to apply effects during recording, and signals can be recorded simultaneously pre- and post-effects thanks to the unique dual output technology. With the MT 48, you get an ideal signal chain for exceptional sound quality, from the microphone diaphragm to your ears.

Swiss precision:
The MT 48 was developed in close collaboration with Swiss manufacturer Merging Technologies, whose high-precision analog converters offer a staggering 136 dB of dynamic range. This gives the MT 48 four times the resolution of comparable audio interfaces.

Fully equipped for the reference-class personal studio:
The MT 48 offers two ultra-low-noise mic/line preamps with up to 78 dB of gain, two line/instrument inputs, four monitor/line outputs and two superb headphone outputs, each with state-of-the-art AD/DA converters. The MT 48's connectivity can be expanded via ADAT / S/PDIF and AES67; a MIDI interface is also integrated.

Intuitive touchscreen control:
Four separate monitor mixes can be controlled directly on the unit via a touchscreen. The integrated processing 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. This gives musicians an inspiring sound for top-level performances.

Dual Output Technology:
You can use the MT 48’s DSP processing for monitoring only, or you can print effects while recording. Or both at the same time! Thanks to the unique dual output technology, signals can be recorded simultaneously pre- and post-effects. So, if necessary, you can fall back on an unprocessed backup.

The MT 48 brings Neumann quality to the digital workflow. It is the first audio interface in its class to capture the full dynamic range of Neumann microphones and is perfectly matched to the KH-Line studio monitor range and Neumann headphones. The result is an ideal signal chain without any bottlenecks: uncompromising sound quality from the microphone diaphragm to your ear.
