A very portable, flexible, and affordable interface with stunning sound quality!

The PreSonus Inspire 1394 FireWire Audio Interface is a FireWire recording system featuring professional quality 24-bit/96kHz A/D/A conversion for extremely clear, dynamic sound.

The Inspire 1394 gives you four simultaneous inputs. These include two XLR jacks with custom PreSonus preamps and switchable phantom power. The mic and instrument preamps are designed for ultra-low noise, high gain, preamplification of all types of microphones and instruments.

Two Hi-Z 1/4" instrument inputs and two selectable line/phono jacks on the back panel have a switchable RIAA filter, making them perfect for DJs and vinyl owners converting LPs to digital.

Outputs include RCA unbalanced and mini TRS jacks plus a headphone jack.

Up to four Inspire 1394s can be daisy-chained for up to 16 simultaneous inputs.

A software control panel gives you control over all vital parameters including: input gain, phantom power, limiter (off/on), preamp boost (off/on), sample rate, headphone volume, main output volume, and zero-latency input mixing with playback mixing. The software control panel also serves as a mixer between you and your computer playback and your inputs for zero latency recording.

Inspire 1394 FireWire Audio Interface comes with Studio One Artist music creation and production software. It has the same platform and intuitive interface as Studio One Pro and has an unlimited track count.

The PreSonus INSPIRE 1394 works seamlessly with all virtually all popular recording software including Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar, Cakewalk, Logic, Logic Express, Digital Performer, and many others.
