Mona

The Mona has been discontinued. Some information on this page may no longer be up-to-date.

Mona is the ultimate audio production studio in a box. Its four universal inputs connect microphones, guitars, and line level audio directly to your digital audio workstation. This direct connectivity eliminates the need for external equipment, such as mixers and pre-amplifiers, which can add noise and distortion to your recordings. Mona is an affordable solution for field-recording rehearsals or local gigs, and Mona has the professional level specs high-end recording engineers demand. Mona is engineered using the latest generation 24-bit 96 kHz converters, which offer the highest dynamic range and lowest distortion available.

In addition, Mona's six balanced outputs make it an ideal digital mastering tool, and Mona's six RCA outputs allow seamless integration with your home entertainment system for applications such as 5.1 surround sound playback.

Mona comes with a 15' host cable that connects the rack mount interface to a PCI bus master interface card or CardBus card for laptops!
