M-Audio Fast Track Pro 4x4 Mobile USB Audio/MIDI Interface with Preamps (MID99004107600) Same Day $199.00
Add to Your Basket:

The Fast Track Pro delivers all the mobile recording flexibility of the Fast Track USB, plus even more professional features. You get 2 front-panel mic/line inputs complete with phantom power for condenser microphones, inserts for outboard effects balanced and unbalanced analog outputs, S/PDIF digital I/O, MIDI I/O, and more. Fast Track Pro also features near-zero latency direct hardware monitoring and low-latency ASIO software monitoring, plus an A/B source switch and dual output pairs for DJ-style cueing. Fast Track Pro is compatible with most popular PC and Mac music software. USB connection and bus power along with class compliancy for Mac OS X* make it a breeze to set up.

* Class compliancy supports 16-bit/48kHz 2 x 4 operation on OS X 10.3.9 and higher. Driver installation required to access more I/O.


Professional Recording—Anywhere, Anytime

Fast Track Pro is designed to let you record with professional results whenever and wherever you want. A single USB connection gives you access to all the I/O you need for microphones and instruments like guitars, as well as MIDI- and S/PDIF-equipped digital audio gear. The microphone inputs are even phantom powered to accommodate the studio-quality condenser microphones like the M-Audio Luna and Solaris. Our time-tested driver software gives you total routing control over the 4 x 4 I/O—including setting up an effects loop with external devices.

GT Player Express

Fast Track Pro ships with GT Player Express software, delivering a variety of effects and virtual stomp boxes that eliminate the need for a guitar amp for basic recording and practice. GT Player Express also plays standard audio files like AAC, MP3 and WAV, allowing you to learn and jam along with your favorite music at variable speeds. With Fast Track Pro and GT Player Express, your computer can be your entire guitar rig

Monitoring Galore

One of the hallmarks of a great audio interface is its monitoring flexibility—and Fast Track Pro delivers. Fast Track Pro features a powerful headphone amp with volume control. Hardware direct monitoring eliminates the latency or delay inherent in even the best internal circuitry while listening to your input and existing tracks. You can also listen to your input complete with effects while recording by using extremely the low-latency ASIO monitoring we’ve perfected over the years. Two pairs of analog outputs let you connect to a DJ mixer and use the front-panel A/B source switch to audition cues.

Ableton Live Lite 5

This special edition of the multi-award winning Ableton Live 5 software lets you experience what the critics have been raving about. Live 5’s revolutionary loop-based paradigm makes production as simple as dragging and dropping audio clips in real time. You can also record linear tracks, add effects, perform live remixes and much more.
