Equipped with the same ESS Sabre32 Ultra ™ DAC technology found in audio interfaces costing thousands of usuids, the M2 offers an astonishing 120 dB dynamic range on its main outputs. ESS converters also drive the headphone output, which rivals dedicated headphone amplifiers costing hundreds of dollars. Ultra-clean preamplifier circuits produce a measured EIN of -129 dBu on the microphone inputs. Capture and monitor your audio with perfect clarity.

The M2 offers the fastest speed in your class for monitoring live inputs (mic, guitar or keyboard) via your computer, thanks to expertly designed MOTU USB drivers that offer ultra-short latency of 2 , 5 ms (96 kHz) with a buffer of 32 samples).

When recording and mixing, it is important to achieve optimal levels. The M2 is the only audio interface in its class with a color LCD that provides clear and detailed level indicators for all inputs and outputs. Enjoy volume control and professional level feedback for perfect sound.

The M2 driver provides convenient loopback channels to your host computer.

The only downside is the lack of tutorials in French. Upon receipt and installation, I ended up with a mono input and a mono output. Motu's service was able to help me without difficulty, in English of course.
