Equipped with Thunderbolt™ 4 / USB4 and AVB network integration, the 10pre combines ten high-performance mic inputs, low-latency operation, and extensive routing flexibility in a single 1U rackmount interface. Whether you’re tracking large ensembles, integrating outboard gear, or building an expandable networked studio, the 10pre provides exceptional sonic transparency and unmatched control. Engineered for today’s hybrid production workflows, the 10pre offers ten pristine mic/line/instrument inputs with up to +74 dB of gain and ultra-quiet -129 dBu EIN performance. Eight rear-panel XLR/TRS combo inputs provide permanent connections in your rack, while two additional front-panel inputs make it easy to plug in mics or instruments on the fly. With 54 total channels of I/O, onboard 64-channel digital mixing with effects, and 128-channel AVB networking capability, the 10pre integrates effortlessly into any studio configuration.

A high-resolution 3.9-inch full-color display gives instant access to levels, preamp control, and routing, while CueMix Pro software provides deep control of the 10pre’s powerful DSP mixer — complete with 4-band EQ, compression, gating, and reverb on every channel. With its built-in AVB switch, the 10pre can link up to eight MOTU interfaces over Ethernet for hundreds of channels of networked audio with ultra-low latency.
