The MOTU 828 MK3 is a 28x32 USB3 audio interface that connects to Mac, PC, or iOS via a single USB-C cable at 5 Gbps. Built on ESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC technology, it handles 60 simultaneous channels with 125 dB dynamic range, -114 dB THD+N, and round-trip latency as low as 2 ms at up to 24-bit/192 kHz. This is the fifth generation of MOTU's flagship 828 line.Two combo XLR/TRS inputs with +74 dB of gain, -20 dB pad, 48V phantom power, and phase invert work as transparent mic preamps or hi-Z guitar DIs. Eight line inputs, eight DC-coupled TRS outputs, dedicated XLR mains, two optical I/O banks, RCA S/PDIF, BNC word clock, and 5-pin MIDI round out the I/O. A 24-channel onboard mixer with 32-bit DSP adds reverb, 4-band EQ, and compression for near-zero-latency monitoring via the CueMix 5 app over USB or Wi-Fi. The 3.9-inch RGB TFT display, two headphone outputs, loopback recording, and A/B/C monitoring with talkback sit in a rugged 1U steel chassis that operates standalone without a computer.Features28x32 USB3 (USB-C, 5 Gbps) interface, 60 simultaneous channels2x combo XLR/TRS mic/line/hi-Z preamps, +74 dB gain, 48V phantomESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC, 125 dB dynamic range, up to 192 kHz8x line inputs, 8x DC-coupled TRS outputs, dedicated XLR mains24-channel DSP mixer with reverb, 4-band EQ, compressionOptical I/O, RCA S/PDIF, BNC word clock, 5-pin MIDI, footswitch3.9-inch RGB TFT metering display, two headphone outputs1U chassis, 2 ms round-trip latency, Mac/Windows/iOS compatible
