M-Audio M-Track MKII tarjeta de sonido USB

General

M-Audio's M-Track MKII is a reissue of the original M-Track audio interface. This comprehensive USB sound card is great for home producers and singer-songwriters who want to start recording vocals and instruments in style. Its sleek white housing is equipped with two full-grade microphone/line inputs with combo XLR/6.3mm jack connectors and phantom power. That means it's possible to connect two dynamic or condenser microphones, for instance, or a microphone and a keyboard. Channel 2 even allows you to plug in an electric or electro-acoustic (bass) guitar. The M-Track MKII transmits a 24-bit/48kHz signal to your PC or Mac via its USB port, which also powers the interface.

M-Track MKII: direct monitoring

This audio interface enables you to monitor your vocals or instrument signals directly via the inputs, which is quite convenient while you're recording, as you won't have to deal with the moderate, yet annoying latency that occurs when a signal is run through a computer first. A Direct/USB knob allows you to determine the balance between the direct sound and the sound from your PC or Mac. The total volume (which is transmitted to your speakers) can be controlled by means of a large knob on the right side of the M-Track. Speakers are connected to the balanced jack outputs at the back, and the headphone output can be fine-tuned independently. The M-Audio M-Track MKII comes with the intuitive Ableton Live Lite music production software and a set of plug-ins, so you add some nice colouring to your recordings.
