The BEST AUDIO INTERFACE Under $1000

Finally getting to share my experiences with the Arturia Audiofuse Studio.
Yes, it has been more than a week since I got this thing, but considering the world and where its at, you may have to forgive a bit.
This thing is PREMIUM through and through.
18 in/20 out with literally EVERY bell and whistle that could have been included.
But there is one thing about this that makes it a no brainer....

Amazing interface, great plugin bundle, DC coupled for reamping and controller for cv/gate synth, high quality headphones preamp and more...best

I've had mine for over a year now. I'd say, it's probably the best interface under $3K. To get better with a comparable feature set you're looking at Focusrite Red, newer RME stuff, etc. PLUS a dedicated monitor controller. $3K+

Fantastic review, thanks. Seriously considering this or the Audiofuse now.

Looks good to me for four mics and radio situation type application, and 70db! though I have recently gone for an id22, like three days ago! I find the log pots a bit strange, not used to them yet. All I'm doing is audiobooks and pod drama remotely so it's fine, can be expanded to ten pres at a cost. Nice vid!

Thanks for this review. After an exhaustive review of something to replace my octa-capture, I’m down to this or an ultra lite mk5 (backordered into my sunset years?). Any opinion on sonic comparisons? How do they sound? This is usb 3.0 I believe. How is the latency on this device? Any readings? I’m a little confused on their effects bundle. Are those just plugins for my daw? Its not a dsp, so you can’t print them right? Not sure I grasp this. And most importantly how is getting some tech assistance from Arturia these days? They used to be bad 5-10 yrs. ago. Motu is in the US and has a pretty good rep. Thanks for your time and thoughts.

One year of use so far.... And nothing to complain about,
Sound is amazing, possibilities are great for the price tag
A great product in my opinion

Hi. Coming from the Presonus interface which couples with Studio One to provide the Z setting for super fast latency on only those track charged for recording. Will I still get this functionality with the Arturia Audio Fuse Studio?
If not, what are the latency specs?

Because of this and other similar videos, we took the plunge and went for the AudioFuse Studio you are showing above coming from the Focusrite Scarlette series. We will be using this predominantly for live streams with OBS and some recordings. Now, with regards to the 4 front inputs, are these mono jacks or stereo? If we want to connect a keyboard (stereo outs), do we need to use 2 of these front jacks (to keep the stereo separation) or if the jacks are stereo, we can simply go out of L&R outputs from the keyboard into a TRS that plugs into one of the AudioFuse's inputs (if the jacks are stereo) or occupy 2 inputs (in1 and in2) of the AudioFuse if the jacks are mono? Thanks again for the education you provide to our community.

The Chinese made Interfaces of Arturia are absolutely trash, can you tell where its made ?

[purplewound]

Nice review thanks, have you had the chance to try this with M1 Mac?

[larrycom]

Nice review for the info aspect. The question you should have asked is: how does it sound??? And give us an example!

[arthurw]

Great review, thanks. The smaller AudioFuse Rev2 is said to generate a lot of heat, which scares me. Does the Studio run cooler?

[HarjotSingh-wymm]

If want to upgrade the interface from apogee duet 2 to arturia audiofuse what about the quality in the audio pls tell

[geoffreysmith]

Thanks for the review. Curious if you have any thoughts about front mic inputs vs rear mic inputs? This will be my first audio interface and I like the idea of mic cables being in the rear of the unit to keep the desktop clean. From a workflow perspective, which do you prefer and why? Appreciate any advice.

How's the AudioFuse Studio holding up a year later? Also can you tell me how well it performs regarding low latency?
Lastly, since there is no Computer-Direct Source knob, is there way to balance this in the Control Software for when you're recording vocals in the headphones?
Any insight, greatly appreciated.

Great review! i'm very undecided to buy arturia studio or rme ufx II...i have to produce my music and record saxophone using ribbon, dynamic and condenser microphones..so gain and quality of preamps are two features very important ..could you help me to take my decision between arturia and rme? Thank you!

I'm looking for the best sounding Audio Interface under $1, 000. Audiofuse Studio vs RME Babyface Pro fs which one has better sounding?

[JGW-imnf]

Can this be used as a stand-alone mixer? With out the computer?

[JesusPiano]

Did you ever found a solution for that never ending volume knob?

[savethefails]

Nice review. Its ugly. It seriously looks like some early 80's synth.

Also, I'd despise that output knob sensitivity thing. I'm used to the iD44 having ultra sensitive adjustment so I can just ease into my mix.
Has some nice features but I'd also have hear the pre at 60+ db. Anything but dead quiet is a no for me.
