M2 USB-C Audio Interface with Ableton Live Lite

Very Nice Product For Music Producer , Mix Master Engineer Compatible Woth Neumann Tlm 102 Very Nice Recording Quality Vapue For Money

This is a fairly versatile audio interface offering good latency. I've had no issues or tracking delays when tremolo picking guitars at 200+ BPM. Just make sure that certain things are set up correctly e.g. some power plan settings have to be tweaked to get the best performance on Windows. This is essential if you are using simulation VSTs like NeuralDSP, AmpliTube, etc. in your DAW.I don't have a microphone so cannot comment on the 48V phantom power. Same goes with the MIDI input as I don't have any MIDI devices. The DAC section is based on the ESS 9016 chip. You will find ESS 90xx chips being used in all sorts of high-end audiophile devices. The 9016, while not a top-tier DAC like the 90x8 series, is decent and the M2's implementation is good enough. While being mostly balanced and neutral sounding, there is some colouration in male vocals and a slight mid-bass boost but nothing to make it sound completely off.Connecting speakers or studio monitors is easy and the preamp does fine. There's adequate headroom in terms of volume. However, it would have been nice to also get 3-pin XLR outputs alongside the 6.3mm TRS ones. Inclusion of RCA for unbalanced output is a nice touch. The headphone output is also fine although I've seen complaints about low volume levels from people using high impedance headphones.The OLED display hasn't been super useful for me as the same information is available on a DAW but YMMV. It looks cool though.

this is way better than focusrite and audient .

Best product

This is the best interface, and its price is also affordable.

So this is an honest review.I've been doing alot if research to buy an audio interface with my own money, so had to find the best one which fitted my budget. I came across the MOTU M2 and checked online reviews for more than a month and went for it.......Off the bat, hands down, this is worth the price. For this price, you're getting amazing Mic preamps (can easily drive a Shure SM7B) , a heapdhone preamp that can easily drive 250ohm headphones, Midi connectivity (which I believe is a must have feature), an amazing display which shows meter levels, and an ON/OFF switch. Plus, you get LOOPBACK!!!! Like seriously man!!!If you're asking, yes it is way better than the Focusrite Scarlett and Steinberg interfaces. I would so its closest rival will be the SSL2, which is an amazing interface itself with preamps on par with the MOTU. In the end, it comes down to preference. SSL is costlier and doesn't give you a MIDI port for that price, which does give the MOTU an edge. Then again, the 4k switch on the SSL gives a different colouration to the preamps when activated. So its more like a draw.There are some other interfaces from Steinberg which have loop back and DSP in this price range, but the preamps are no where close to the MOTU's.If you're someone who's looking for for a good audio interface with good preamps to get the work done, don't think twice my friend, go for it............. and plus, it is very hard to get a hold of this interface because it's like almost always out of stock/unavailable. When I ordered, this was the last piece.....If you come across one, don't let it go!!

Not working one channel

The motu m2 by its nature is good but if you’re willing to play guitar through it and use it as an amp it’s not even worth a penny to you, it has a lot of latency issues when you do this but it’s only useful if you have an amp and need to try out extra amps or else this thing is useless to use it as an amp using daw

Fantastic piece of equipment, works flawlessly with Ableton Live 12 Standard and Aaki MPC Key37.

MOTU M2'yi bir süredir kullanıyorum ve genel olarak fiyatına göre çok başarılı bir arayüz. ESS Sabre DAC sayesinde ses kalitesi temiz, ön paneldeki LCD ekranın gerçek zamanlı seviye göstergesi bu fiyat segmentinde neredeyse hiçbir üründe olmayan, günlük kullanımda gerçekten işe yarayan bir özellik. Sürücüleri stabil, kurulumu dertsiz.Tek ciddi sınırlamayı kulaklık çıkışında yaşadım: HiFiMAN Ananda Nano gibi zor sürülen bir planar magnetic kulaklığı yeterince besleyemedi. Yüksek ses seviyelerine çıkınca sinyal belirgin şekilde distortion giriyor. Amfi devresinin gücü bu tip kulaklıklar için yetersiz kalıyor. Sorunu araya harici bir kulaklık amfisi ekleyerek çözdüm; M2'nin hat çıkışından amfiye girince distortion tamamen kayboldu, yani DAC tarafında bir sorun yok, mesele sadece dahili kulaklık amfisinin gücü.Şunu da eklemek lazım: bu her kulaklıkta yaşanacak bir sorun değil. Kolay sürülen, hassasiyeti yüksek kulaklıklarla veya kulak içi modellerle büyük ihtimalle hiç fark etmezsiniz. Ama planar magnetic veya yüksek empedanslı bir kulaklığınız varsa, M2'nin kulaklık çıkışına tek başına güvenmeyin; bütçenize harici bir amfi de ekleyin.Özetle: kayıt/arayüz tarafında gönül rahatlığıyla önerebileceğim bir ürün, kulaklık amfisi tarafında ise zor yükler için sınırlı. Puanımı da bu yüzden kırmadım.

The interface is not damaged or scratched which is good. The original packaging was not complete, nor the manual or original cables. The serial number is already registered so it is impossible to get support from Motu as registering a product is mandatory before tickets or contact is possible.So basicly just the interface, nothing else.

Very good and authentic product that i cannot find in Singapore for a good prrice
