Arturia AudioFuse 16Rig 16-in/12-out USB-C Audio Interface

The Arturia AudioFuse 16Rig is a professional-grade audio interface designed for musicians, producers, and studio engineers who require extensive connectivity and flexible routing options. It serves as the central hub for complex audio setups, connecting synthesizers, microphones, instruments, and outboard gear to a computer or functioning as a standalone mixer. With its comprehensive I/O configuration and support for modern immersive audio formats, it caters to both traditional stereo production and advanced spatial audio workflows. The interface provides 16 analogue inputs, including two digitally controlled microphone preamps, and 12 analogue outputs for monitoring and signal distribution. Key features include ADAT optical connectivity for expanding channel count, MIDI I/O via both 5-pin DIN and USB, and a low-latency USB-C connection for computer integration. The unit operates in two modes: as a computer-connected interface with full software control via the AudioFuse Control Centre, or as a standalone mixer with internal routing and preset recall. The 2.0 firmware update adds support for surround and immersive audio formats like Dolby Atmos, enabling precise speaker management and bass control for spatial mixing projects. This interface is particularly well-suited for electronic musicians with extensive hardware synthesizer collections, project studios requiring flexible I/O, and professionals working on immersive audio content. Its dual configuration options—desktop use or 19-inch rackmount installation—make it adaptable to various studio environments. The included software bundle, featuring Analog Lab Intro and Arturia FX plugins, provides immediate creative tools for sound design and mixing. Whether used for recording, live performance, or as a central studio router, the AudioFuse 16Rig offers professional connectivity and routing depth in a single unit.
