No More Losses, All The Potential

Bringing Neumann quality to the digital workflow. The MT 48 is capable of harnessing the complete dynamic spectrum of Neumann microphones while being flawlessly tailored to the KH-Line of studio monitors and Neumann headphones. Experience an unparalleled signal chain without limitations, offering impeccable sound fidelity from the microphone membrane to your eardrum.

 

Unrivalled Clarity

The MT 48 was meticulously engineered in close collaboration with Swiss-based Merging Technologies, a company renowned for its high-precision AD converters, boasting an incredible 136 dB dynamic range. This enables the MT 48 to deliver four times the resolution of other audio interfaces in its class.

Designed for the reference-class personal studio, the MT 48 comes fully loaded with two ultra-low noise mic/line preamps offering up to 78 dB gain, a pair of line/instrument inputs, four monitor/line outputs, and two exceptional headphone outputs, all powered by cutting-edge AD/DA converters. The MT 48 also provides expandable connectivity through ADAT / S/PDIF and AES67 interfaces, as well as an integrated MIDI interface. Users can control up to four distinct monitor mixes directly on the device via its touchscreen interface.

The onboard processing of the MT 48 features a comprehensive 4-band parametric EQ and a versatile 3-way dynamics processor (gate/compressor/limiter) for each channel, along with a high-quality reverb, ensuring musicians experience an inspiring sound for optimal performance. Moreover, the MT 48 boasts ample DSP power to accommodate future advancements.

 

Record With or Without Effects, or Both

The MT 48 serves as both an audio interface and a digital mixing console combined. Utilise its advanced DSP processing for monitor-only applications, or capture effects during recording. Better yet, do both simultaneously! With the innovative Dual Output Technology, you can record wet and dry signals concurrently through distinct driver channels. This means, if required, you have the option to revert to an unprocessed backup.

 

A New User Experience

With its vast array of capabilities, the MT 48 remains effortlessly user-friendly. All configurations can be made directly on the device through the integrated touchscreen. Attain the ultimate monitor mix with just a tap! Simply use your fingers to modify pan pots, channel faders, and much more, eliminating the need for computer-based mixer software. The MT 48 can even function independently as a mixing console.

The MT 48 fulfills every desire: unparalleled audio quality, integrated DSP processing, extensive scalability, and seamless touchscreen navigation. As the missing link in the Neumann universe, the MT 48 links microphones, speakers, and headphones, crafting the ideal studio environment.
