No other audio interface can fully translate the quality of NEUMANN microphones – and rarely do they deliver the pristine audio the monitors and headphones expect. While you are working with the best input and output gear available, you are losing potential in between. Not anymore! The MT 48 completes the ideal signal chain: Uncompromised sound quality from the sound source to your ear – without any bottlenecks.
I am astonished at how great it sounds, how easy it is to use, and quite frankly how great it looks and handles, and the touch screen is amazing. Never found a mobile interface that convinced me, but I always liked the concept of portability, and it seems Neumann has cracked the code.

Neumann microphones offer a dynamic range of up to 131 dB(A). Yet audio interfaces, so far, offer only 123 dB(A). The MT 48 has four times the resolution: 136 dB(A)! It also delivers more gain than its competitors: Up to 78 dB. So, you not only get the best out of Neumann condensers, but any microphone, even low output ribbons. The same goes for the output side: The MT 48 comes with powerful, ultra-low impedance headphone outputs. Offering better performance than competing devices – and even many external headphone amps. So, you’ll always get the best out of any headphone, including, of course, Neumann’s NDH line.
But it is not only premium sound quality that users need. With musicians becoming their own engineers, ease of use is a crucial factor. Not only for the user but also in sales. While most audio interfaces require a controller application on the computer, the MT 48 features a high-resolution touchscreen with an intuitive user interface. No more switching between hardware and software – all settings are made on the device itself.
