The PreSonus Studio 26C is a professional external USB audio interface that represents an updated version of the Studio 26 sound card, differing from the original model in terms of design and connection type to the computer. Like the first version, it features 24-bit A/D/A converters with a sample rate up to 192 kHz and a dynamic range of 114 dB, ensuring studio-quality sound. The rest of the technical specifications remain unchanged and fully match the previous model.
Features:
- Professional USB audio interface
- 24-bit/192 kHz A/D/A conversion
- Low-noise XMAX-L preamps
- +48V phantom power
- 2 microphone/instrument/line inputs
- 4 balanced line outputs
- MIDI interface with input and output
- USB-C connection to computer and power supply
It includes two microphone/line/instrument inputs with Combo Jack/XLR connectors. These inputs feature the signature XMAX-L preamps and +48V phantom power, necessary for most condenser microphones. Colored input level indicators, volume knobs, and control buttons are located on the front panel. For audio output to speakers, monitors, or other devices, there are four balanced line outputs with 1/4'' Jack TRS connectors. The headphone output uses the same connector, suitable for headphones with 32-300 Ohm impedance. The A/B function allows for quick switching between two different mixes in an instant, which is particularly useful for DJs and monitoring during recording sessions. Additionally, it includes a MIDI interface with input and output on standard 5-pin connectors, suitable for connecting drum machines, synthesizers, MIDI keyboards, and other devices. Thanks to the absence of any hardware processing, audio signal transmission through this audio interface is minimal latency. This is further facilitated by the high-speed USB-C interface for connection and power supply to the computer.
The PreSonus Studio 26C is a high-quality USB audio interface with powerful preamps and converters, providing professional sound quality for recorded material. The device features a simple interface and a sturdy metal casing, allowing for use in any conditions without worrying about damage or malfunctions. Included in the package are USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables, along with licensing keys for the Studio Magic plugin bundle and the Presonus Studio One Artist program, enabling efficient recording and mixing of material.
