The MOTU 24Ai is a USB audio interface with 24 line inputs and AVB networking option. Like all other MOTU AVB interfaces, it can also be used as a stand-alone mixer with 48 channels and features on-board DSP for processing effects. The 24Ai can also be used as an AD converter, which means that the device convinces with high sound quality thanks to its excellent converters. The LCD display on the front of the USB audio interface visualizes the levels of the 24 line inputs and the ADAT banks.
The MOTU 24Ai can also be connected to other AVB audio interfaces via the AVB Ethernet port, as mentioned above. This can be done either by a direct Ethernet cable connection from interface to interface or by using the single available MOTU AVB switch, which can be used to connect more than two MOTU audio interfaces simultaneously. In this way, any number of inputs and outputs can be added to an existing AVB network without much effort. The standalone mixer function of the MOTU 24Ai completes the very flexible application profile of the audio interface, as it no longer needs to be controlled directly, but can be remotely controlled via a web app on iPhone, iPad, smartphone, tablet or laptop. In this way, certain parameters can be modified. This feature makes the MOTU 24Ai AVB very interesting for mobile applications, such as stage or general live applications. However, it is also very suitable for studios, as it can be easily expanded through the AVB network. Furthermore, it is also well suited for home studios, as the high quality converters and very good 24-bit/192kHz resolution allow for excellent audio recordings.
With its 24 line inputs, the MOTU 24Ai offers plenty of room for analog input sources such as analog effects processors, keyboards, synthesizers, mixers, drum machines and much more. Furthermore, the AVB Ethernet port allows you to add any number of channels. It also works with any DAW and connects to the host computer via USB Class Compliant. The 24Ai is therefore particularly suitable for studios or home studios that need many analog inputs. In combination with the excellent audio recording quality and the AVB expansion capability, it is also suitable for professional applications at home and does not have to shy away from comparison with other audio interfaces in higher price categories.
