General
Equipped with an unparalleled 136dB(A) dynamic range and an outstanding set of preamps, the Neumann MT 48 audio interface can make Neumann microphones sound like they've never sounded before. In fact, you can stick any microphone through this progressive interface and they'll probably sound five times more expensive. The preamps built into the MT 48 supply no-less-than 78 decibels of gain - enough to support vintage ribbon microphones without the need for a separate mic preamp. And don't be fooled by the tight, compact size. This desktop-friendly unit can be expanded via ADAT, S/PDIF and AES 67, so it's able to take on a hefty audio network.
Neumann X Merging
The design and development of the MT 48 is the result of the combined forces of Neumann and Switzerland-based Merging Technologies, who for years already, have been at the top of the large-scale audio network game. By combining the superior analogue design of Neumann with the solid DSP and network knowledge of Merging Technologies, the MT 48 is not just an audio interface, but a fully-fledged digital mixer navigated via a clear and intuitive touch-screen interface. Every channel is equipped with independent EQ and dynamics controls while the stunning on-board reverb is enough to make the most experienced engineer weep.

Ultimately, the Neumann MT 48 interface is portable, so uncompromising recordings can be produced, mixed and mastered on location. And, if you need to up the amount of inputs and outputs, you can easily expand the layout via ADAT and S/PDIF. But, if you really need to blow things wide open and go even bigger, then you could just use the fitted AES/Ravenna network port and link up say, some Merging Technologies converters or some Neumann AES studio monitors.
