Featuring an unmatched variety of inputs, outputs, and creative features, AudioFuse 16Rig is set to challenge the interface market with a uniquely hardware-focused design at an unprecedented price point.

AudioFuse 16Rig is a high-density audio & MIDI interface primed for connecting an entire synth studio, complex live audio routing, advanced DAW recording, and beyond. Unmatched connectivity, flexible configuration, and a smart workflow that encourages creativity – all in perfect sync.

AudioFuse 16Rig features

  • Ultimate studio centerpiece: Keep an entire setup connected to the rear I/O, reserving the front panel for extra mics, instruments, or devices. Perfect for a studio full of synths, dense band recordings, intricate monitoring, and more.
  • Pristine audio quality: Whether it’s synths, guitars, vocals, or any combination of inputs, AudioFuse 16Rig gives recordings the shine and clarity they deserve with premium 24-bit AD/DA converters.
  • A standalone mixer: For DAWless recording, live mixing, and computer-free audio configuration, AudioFuse 16Rig can process audio & MIDI signals even without a computer connected thanks to dual internal MIDI-controllable mixers.
  • Intricate audio routing: Configure the connections to suit any need, from multiple sends/returns to A/B speaker monitoring – the included software even features a matrix for quick ‘connect anything and everything’ configuration.
  • For any & every setup: Users can control settings via the built-in controls or the included software, configure it for desktop or rackmount operation, and even connect high-impedance headphones.
  • A smarter interface: Save configurations & mix settings as presets, control modular gear with DC-coupled outputs, use the Reamp feature for versatile guitar tracking, and connect extra USB devices with class-compliant connections.

Arturia will be showcasing the AudioFuse 16Rig at AES New York on October 25th-27th 2023. The interface is available to purchase for 1,299 EUR.
