MOTU 16A, 848 & 10pre gain Milan certification

Available now via free firmware update

MOTU have just announced that three of their popular audio interfaces now boast official Milan Certification. The 16A, 848 and 10pre units are now capable of sharing, routing and distributing hundreds of audio channels alongside other devices on a Milan AVB network.

As the three interfaces are each equipped with a built-in Gigabit AVB switch with two Ethernet ports, they all allow users to daisy-chain multiple units without the need for an external switch. Alongside the news of the official Milan certification, MOTU have recently introduced an array of firmware, driver and CueMix Pro application enhancements, including:

ARM Processor Support for Windows: Includes firmware, drivers and the CueMix Pro controller app.

24-channel WDM streams on Windows: Can be enabled independently for input and output streams.

Delay Compensation: CueMix Pro's comprehensive, flexible routing matrix now provides 64 multi-purpose delay lines (channels) with up to 2ms of delay per channel.

One-click Network Synchronisation: Provides unified synchronisation across all MOTU devices on a network, for both current generation and legacy models.

Support for Static IP Addresses: MOTU device IP addresses are assigned automatically by the network, but if a user needs to manually assign a static IPv4 address, they can now do so via the front panel display.

Deterministic IP Address Connection: The CueMix Pro app can search for devices with specific IP addresses on VPNs or networks that don't support multicast discovery.

Clock Freewheeling: MOTU devices freewheel during network clock interruptions to maintain continuous audio streaming until lock is re-established.

Mac Host Volume Control: Users can optionally control the main out volume of their MOTU interface from their Mac keyboard.

Front Panel Lockout: Users can temporarily disable all front panel controls to prevent unwanted tampering of device settings.

DAC Filter Options: In critical listening environments, users can fine-tune DAC performance with Minimum Phase (Default), Linear Phase Fast and Linear Phase Slow filter options.

Milan Certification means that studio engineers, systems integrators and other audio professionals can now seamlessly incorporate MOTU audio interfaces into networks with other Milan Certified devices from leading pro-audio brands such as Meyer Sound, L Acoustics, d&b Audiotechnik and DiGiCo, to name just a few. Thanks to the Avnu Alliance, Milan Certified Products greatly enhance consistency and inter-operability among pro audio devices that support the open Milan Standard. - Jim Cooper, Director of Marketing, MOTU

Availability Milan support is available to all existing 16A, 848 and 10pre owners through a free firmware update.
