Hi, this is Martin from Modular Audio Tools. I am really overwhelmed by all the positive feedback. I am very pleased that many of you have also missed such a device and I will do everything I can to get it on the market soon. However, there are still many details to be clarified and some organizational and legal hurdles to be overcome. I am very happy to take your feedback on board, some of it has already been taken into account in the current design and can be added as an extension or firmware update at a later date. For now I am starting with the version presented and plan to start crowdfunding soon, if all goes well there will surely be extensions and other versions. Currently I will try to communicate a few things more clearly on the website to answer some questions more clearly. But now I need a few days to recover. Thank you very much for your great interest, Martin

Hi Martin, Dein Interface hat es auch in mein Video geschafft :) kzread.info/dash/bejne/k6eftsqIj9yYido.html Ich muss sagen, dass es ein sehr vielversprechendes Produkt ist und ich es gerne in Zukunft mal testen würde. Viel Erfolg weiterhin bei der Entwicklung!

I have been saying that for a long time. The TE TX-6 was the closest, but it costs lots of money and does a bunch of extra things we don’t need.

pairing two of these for 16 stereo ins would be incredible for dawless setups who still want to be able to mult out stems

This was the most exciting device this year for me. Companies make all of this gear, but few convenient ways to plug it all up!

PORTABLE 16 INPUTS HIGH QUALITY CONVERTERS NO GIMIKY STUFF = PERFECT AUDIO INTERFACE PLEASE PLEASE BRING IT TO LIFE, I LL BUY ONE IMMEDIATELY PERSONALLY THIS IS WHAT I V BEEN MISSING FOREVER IN THE MARKET

I wonder how many times I've googled "small(est) multi input interface". This is the one I've searched for!

Stoked for this looks like a nice es-9 alternative.

Daumen hoch !

really awesome to see someone fine a gap in the market and decide to just make an answer themselves. looks like a great device, hope it’s a success

Very usable device. I will get one as soon as it available.

Yay DC coupled. Boo output voltage range. For this to be a home run for modular gear, it needs to be nearly +5v on output.

@marf-MAT

Ай бұрын

It is an audio interface. The main purpose is to use it for line-level audio signals. A side effect is that the outputs are already DC-coupled and can already be used to control Eurorack CVs in the -2.5v to 2.5v range. But that's just a small addition. There will probably be an additional board clamped in between that provides eurorack levels on 16 additional in and out ports with -10v to +10v. Please check the website for more information.

This is great. I barely touch any of the controls on my mixer and have been working out how to rearrange my room to hide it somewhere and free up some more desk space. One suggestion, although not a deal-breaker, would be to have a physical mute button on each channel although I realize this might not be practical or cost-effective in this form-factor.

Looks great!

Nice that it can be upgraded as well. I would love to be an ethernet port on it in the future so multiple units can be daisy chained. I've had the idea having gear on different pedalboards and have each board its own interface. Everything I found so far was too big and/or didn't have the features I was after. Really wish I was on SB to have a conservation with Martin. And thanks for the videos and hard work Sonicstate staff! As always you guys are the

He was so quick to say it worked in Linux. I feel like a bunch of Bitwig Linux nerds must have asked him that question a lot LOL. It's funny how interfaces get huge as soon as they have more than four inputs. I like the old-school MOTU UltraLite Hybrid because it's compact and bus-powered, but that's 8 mono channels + S/PDIF and it's half-rack size. So this is a lot more portable with more channels, and class-compliant is nice. But once something is this compact I can't help thinking it'd be nice to have a built-in battery that lasts as long as a TR-6S...

Some of us iPad people have wanted something like this for years. I think the only thing that would be an improvement might be if it could do 32 bit float.

32bit recording is a meaningless. It only effect dynamic range that is limited by the converters. 24bit gives 144dB DR, 32bit Processing is a different story

Can we connect it to computer and create a Dante virtual sound card for it and have it as additional inputs routed through Dante on our MAC’s and into our DAW’s?

😎

This has a lot of potential to be a future staple for modular/synth users, but MAT will have to play their cards incredibly carefully if they hope to achieve any real success and not just add onto the "WE CAN DEFINITELY COMPETE WITH THE ES9 GUYS WE SWEAR" pile. Open-sourcing the project, or at the very least providing comprehensive documentation for community-made expanders is a must if they hope for the device to sell more than a handful units.

A bit unfortunate that we are using more and more of 3.5 mini jacks for things like this. It would be better if we went to using 4.4 jacks, which are more robust (better connection contact, less prone to damage).

I mean it's not like 3.5mm stereo to 1/4" cables are overly expensive, and the portability is a large part of his intent for the product. This is a pretty big gamechanger for touring artists who tape out their live hardware setups to ensure they are in compliance with Carry-on constraints for air travel, because checking any luggage, but even more so electronic music gear is pretty much a schrodinger's cat type situation that is an unacceptable risk if it means the difference between performing or not, not to mention that how many pieces of gear would you be alright with never getting back because the reality is that somewhere along the chain of custody of luggage in regards to checking a bag with airlines it's pretty common for valuable items to never be seen again, or somehow not get loaded on the same flight as you are.
