Advanced Integration production system
These revolutionary units provide complete 100 mirroring of hardware and software functionality. All aspects of I/O handling in the hardware as well as full control of the onboard VST3 DSP are engineered to meld straight into Cubase. When connected to an MR816 CSX interface, Cubase 4 generates additional panels for control of functionality from within the Cubase mixer as well as additional customized editor windows. Easy setup and true plug and play guarantee a lightning-fast setup experience, with automatic I/O setup creating all necessary routing automatically through templates. The benefits are extremely fast and intuitive workflow that handles software and hardware effectively as one system.
Class A preamps and revolutionary Quick Connect
The MR816 CSX features the latest generation of Yamaha's discrete 'D-Pre' Class A analog microphone preamps, combining XLR and TRS analog connectors. These outstanding preamps feature an advanced Inverted Darlington circuit design and electronics components specifically designed to deliver a sumptuously smooth and richly detailed sound. Another unique feature is Quick Connect, which allows instant routing and re-routing of inputs to Cubase channels from the front panel of the I/O with the push of a single button!
DSP Power and True Integrated Monitoring
The Advanced Integration DSP Studio is the hardware centerpiece for a latency-free recording and monitoring solution. Thanks to the new True Integrated Monitoring it's easy to create real-time, unique and most importantly no-latency mixes for several performers with FX directly from within your DAW. But the DSP power is not only available for creating individual mixes for performers. The full DSP capability is also ready to use as a VST3 Plugin within Cubase on any desired audio track. The plug-ins provided are the outstanding Sweet Spot Morphing Channel Strip, which allows extremely fast set up of compression and EQ settings, and the renowned Yamaha REV-X Reverb, offers a choice of hall, room, and plate reverb simulations with reverb time and level control.
Musicians/Producers/Studios
MR816 CSX is ideal for recording bands in rehearsal rooms or live gigs with a laptop, or building up a dedicated project studio or recording space. Excellent sound, great stacking options and a smooth, fast workflow are among the top priorities for studios using MR and Cubase as recording and production solution for their business. Connections required for studios like Wordclock, S/PDIF and ADAT® are onboard, with the hardware inserts offering an ideal way of integrating boutique hardware units in the software realm. Eight channel outputs offer full support for surround productions up to 7.1, ideally complemented by Steinberg's fully multi-channel architecture and the Control Room features in both Cubase and Nuendo.
