Producers, engineers, and mixers can take on the largest music or audio-post productions with the Avid Pro Tools | MTRX II Audio interface (Base Unit), a powerful studio centerpiece that offers exceptional sound quality, I/O customizability, and extensive routing and monitoring control in one interface. Used as a standalone or with Pro Tools | HDX, other DAWs, and Avid control surfaces, Pro Tools | MTRX II builds on the versatility of its predecessor, providing 64-channels of DigiLink I/O, 256 channels of Dante I/O, 64 channels of MADI I/O, Word Clock I/O, and 128 Channels of SPQ speaker processing to calibrate your room for optimal monitoring. The interface is fully modular, enabling you to customize it with up to eight analog and/or digital audio I/O option cards (available separately) to accommodate recording, mixing, ADR, Foley, or sound-design sessions of any size.
