PreSonus has announced the release of Studio 24, a new 2x2 USB-C bus-powered audio/MIDI interface that can record up to 24-bit, 192 kHz audio. Equipped with PreSonus XMAX-L solid-state preamps and high-end converters, the newest member of the company's Studio series delivers professional quality audio in a rugged, compact, all-metal enclosure that can withstand the stresses of travel.

A complete, all-in-one recording solution, the Studio 24 comes with PreSonus' Studio One Artist music production software for Mac and Windows. Studio One integrates tightly with PreSonus interfaces, configuring automatically—no need to map inputs and outputs. You also get the Studio Magic Plug-in Suite, a carefully selected plug-in collection from leading names in virtual instruments and effects.

The Studio 24 features two front-panel combo mic/instrument/line inputs with +48V phantom power for condenser mics. A Mixer knob blends analog input and computer playback for low-latency direct monitoring, and accurate LED meters indicate input and output levels. The USB-C port and balanced, ¼-inch TRS, line-level main outputs grace the rear panel, and an output level control is provided on the front. MIDI I/O enables connection to a keyboard, sound module, or control surface. USB-C-to-C and USB-C-to-A cables are included.

The PreSonus Studio 24 USB-C audio/MIDI interface is available immediately at PreSonus dealers for a U.S. street price of $149.95.
