M-AUDIO M-Track Duo USB Audio Interface for Recording, Streaming and Podcasting with Dual XLR, Line and DI Inputs, plus a Software Suite Included

We upgraded our audio set-up recently and bought a couple of really nice mics, so a twin-input XLR audio interface was needed. After debating various interfaces, I decided to take a risk and go for the M-audio as I've used older models in the past with very little issue and it was the cheapest by far. Whenever you go cheap with audio gear theres always an element of finger-crossing, but I need not have worried. A few reviews have complained that it feels tinny, and I would disagree. It is deceptively light for sure, but somehow also manages to feel well built and robust. Theres a good action on the gain knobs and the switches are very positive as well, overall despite the low weight I'd say its actually very nicely made as long as you don't plan on stamping on it or putting a marshall stack on top of it. The XLR inputs grip tightly and securely, infact every single port on this little box feels precise and well made. The level of clarity delivered by this interface is really quite impressive, its a very clear, open and honest sound with no tonal colouring which is always going to be preferred by anyone serious about audio as it's a proper "blank slate" to begin with. I found no noise was introduced to the signal at all until the gain was set above 9, which is excellent. Setting it up was so simple a child could do it, and after downloading the ASIO drivers from the m-audio website it was ready to go in seconds. There are no bells or whistles and frills (it does have switchable phantom power but this is unnecessary for my setup so I can't say if its any good) but I'd say its barebones nature is actually its strength. It looks professional, it sounds professional, and its cheap. I guarantee you won't hear the difference between this and a focusrite or similar, and the only reason to buy above it is if you need more features or are planning on using it to beat your bass guitarist over the head, in which case may I recommend a brick instead. Good stuff.

Great (cheap and simple) box for connecting professional mics to, say, a Mac laptop which has no external mic input. Plug the mic(s) - up to two - into the XLR inputs (mic or line, or use a phone jack in the combo inputs) and plug the M-Audio's USB output (cable supplied) into any standard flat (original-style) USB-type-A socket in your laptop or full-size computer. The USB connection provides power for the M-Audio box electronics, AND for phantom power into the mic, if needed by condenser mics. Just choose the 'USB CODEC' as the computer's audio input, and you're done! Perfect for using great quality mics for Zoom calls, Zoom - or similar - conferences, or just for recording great audio. Perfect, for instance, for using a rich-sounding Sennheiser 441 professional mic (with XLR-only connection) straight into a computer which has no XLR inputs. Brilliantly cheap and simple.

Not the most robust. A bit plasticy so wouldn't go using it for gigs but more than ok for home use. The 2 channels are good for recording 2 mics or 1 mic and an instrument and work really well with indicators to show if clipping. If you are using an expensive set of headphones you may have to turn volume way up, but for most phones it will be fine I think. Just one warning if using a PC, make sure you plug into rear usb as ones on front are a bit underpowered I think as they caused bad noise/hum on mics if plugged into front but fine when plugged into rear. For the money, you can't go wrong.

I got the M-audio Duo (was actually classified as used supplied by Amazon). I'm new to the world of audio interfaces, just wanted something so I could record the midi output from my digital piano and then play it back. I'm using an iPad 9th gen with a powered usb hub and also tried it on my phone (xiaomi note pro) and a Lenovo tablet. Works brilliantly on the ipad and phone, no noticeable lag. Not so good on the Lenovo, sound is lagging terribly, but that's got to be an issue with the Lenovo not the interface. Sound is good as I need it to be, no unwanted noises etc. As for being used, it looks brand new to me. So all in all very happy with the purchase and would highly recommend it.

This has worked really well for me to record acoustic and electric guitars, vocals and keyboard etc. I had previously tried a Focusrite scarlett but experienced a lot of latency issues with it. No such problems with the M Audio. Good value for money too.

Very simple to use interface, and has a quiet, transparent sound quality. The box feels a bit cheap, being plastic, it it seems to work perfectly for high quality recording. Recommended.

Used for several months this is a great quality outboard sound device perfect for any small home recording set up powerful sound both headphones and monitors.

For me m audio always provide efficient, good quality interfaces

It's an excellent USB sound card covers all the basics. I needed it for a laboratory interface. There are much more expensive equivalents of which I have a few but this one definitely gets the job done. I like the 16-bit 48 kHz. I like having two XLR inputs. I like the uncomplicated basic user controls. Plugged it into Linux bang works right off no issues. I looked at the TI Burr Brown PCM2900C data sheet and it could be easily connected to an embedded processor like an ARM or DSPIC. I'm not using it for straight up stereo audio but it would work right for that. All of my music is 16-bit flac so 24 or 32-bit would not help anyway.

¡Muy bien, la verdad! Superliviana, fácil de transportar y poca latencia; está muy bien calidad-precio.

ممتاز
