Essential Information About the Arturia AudioFuse Studio Audio Interface
- 4 ultra-quiet Discrete Pro preamps for detailed vocal and instrument recordings in 24-bit/192 kHz.
- XXL connectivity with combo inputs, inserts, ADAT, S/PDIF/Word Clock, headphone outputs, auxiliary outputs for reamping, and built-in USB hub.
- Hardware monitoring control with dim/mute/mono, source selection, and a "one function = one button" workflow.
- Bluetooth receiver compatible with AAC/aptX for instant referencing of tracks from a smartphone.
The Maturity of the AudioFuse Range
Heir to the original AudioFuse, the AudioFuse Studio significantly expands the series' capabilities. It retains Arturia's philosophy focused on analog quality and ease of use, but with twice as many preamps, a complete monitoring section, and connectivity designed for modern studios, from demanding home studios to professional setups.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Producers, sound engineers, content creators, podcasters, and multi-instrumentalists will find a reliable hub for their sessions here. The 4 mic/line/instrument channels cover vocals, guitars, and synths; the auxiliary outputs facilitate reamping; ADAT allows interface expansion for multi-mic recordings; while Bluetooth and MIDI (I/O) streamline reference listening and setup integration.
Key Features for a Professional Workflow
High-End Preamps and Conversion
The 4 Discrete Pro preamps provide a clean, musical gain reserve, ideal for demanding microphones. The 24-bit/192 kHz conversion ensures precise stereo imaging, sharp transients, and a very low noise floor.
Integrated Studio Monitoring
A true onboard monitor controller centralizes dim, mute, mono, and source selection. On the front panel, each essential function has its dedicated control, following Arturia's credo of "one function = one button" for fast work without hidden menus.
Connectivity Designed for Production
Analog inserts on channels 1 to 4 for compressors/EQs, Word Clock and S/PDIF for a stable clock, ADAT for expansion, USB hub for your controllers and dongles, and USB-C for easy integration with Windows or Mac systems. The Bluetooth receiver compatible with AAC/aptX speeds up reference listening during sessions.
