M Audio M Track Duo Review

I recently had the pleasure of testing the M Audio M Track Duo, a portable audio interface for Mac or PC. As someone who actively records music, podcasts and streams live performances, I was excited to see what this device had to offer. I have used many different audio interfaces over the years and was eager to see how this one compared.

The first thing I noticed about the M Track Duo is that it is incredibly compact and lightweight. This means that it can easily be transported from place to place without taking up too much space or being too cumbersome. Its small size also makes it ideal for studio environments where space is at a premium. Additionally, its sleek black design looks great on any desktop or workstation.

The M Track Duo comes with two combo XLR/Line/Instrument inputs with phantom power, allowing you to record guitar, vocals or line signals with ease. It also has a 1/4 inch headphone output and stereo 1/4 inch outputs for total monitoring flexibility. With its USB/Direct switch, you can also ensure zero latency monitoring which is great for recording and mixing purposes.

The sound quality of the M Track Duo is really impressive too. The interface features crystal preamps that guarantee optimal sound from all your microphones, including condenser mics which are often difficult to capture accurately without distortion or clipping. This ensures that all your recordings are as clear as possible with no unwanted noise or artifacts in the mix.

In terms of software compatibility, the M Track Duo comes with a fantastic suite of applications including Pro Tools First M Audio Edition, MPC Beats, Xpand 2 and Eleven Lite guitar amp plugin as well as 20 AVID plugin FXs perfect for podcasters and beat makers alike! Additionally, it is compatible with both Mac and PC operating systems so anyone can use this device with ease regardless of their computer setup.

Overall, I found the M Audio M Track Duo to be an excellent audio interface for anyone looking for an easy to use yet powerful device for recording music at home or on the go. It offers great sound quality thanks to its crystal preamps and a range of useful features such as zero latency monitoring via USB/Direct switch and comprehensive software compatibility across both Mac and PC operating systems. Highly recommended!
