Arturia AudioFuse 16Rig is a high-density 32-input / 28-output USB-C audio interface for hardware-heavy studios, synth rooms, live rigs and complex routing systems. It provides 16 analog line inputs, two front mic, instrument and line combo preamps, eight DC-coupled line outputs, dual ADAT I/O, Word Clock, MIDI, internal low-latency mixers and desktop or 1U rack operation.

Why 16Rig Is Different
- Designed for permanent hardware connection: 16 line inputs reduce constant repatching in synth and outboard-heavy studios.
- 32 x 28 total routing capacity: supports complex recording, monitoring and send-return workflows.
- Eight DC-coupled outputs: useful for multi-output monitoring, outboard routing and compatible CV-oriented workflows.
- Two internal low-latency mixers: enables standalone and DAWless mixing configurations.
- Dual ADAT banks: expands digital I/O substantially when paired with compatible converters or preamps.
- Desktop or 1U rackmount: adapts to different studio layouts.
- Front color display: provides direct visual access to meters and settings.
