Description
The PreSonus FireStudio Mobile is a compact 10×6 FireWire audio/MIDI interface with two Class A XMAX mic/instrument preamps, six balanced line inputs, S/PDIF, and MIDI, delivering 24-bit/96 kHz recording with Burr-Brown converters and JetPLL jitter elimination for clean, professional sound. Rugged and travel-ready, it features a reinforced metal chassis, sealed controls, and provides true 48V phantom power even when bus-powered. Its internal mixer enables zero-latency monitoring and multiple cue mixes, while daisy-chaining with other FireStudio units expands the system up to 52 channels. Compatible with Mac and Windows, it works with all major DAWs and comes bundled with Studio One Artist software, virtual instruments, and effects for a complete production setup.

Studio-Quality Sound
Equipped with two Class A XMAX mic/instrument preamps and high-definition Burr-Brown converters (118 dB dynamic range), the FireStudio Mobile delivers clean, detailed 24-bit/96 kHz audio with low noise and rich headroom. JetPLL jitter-elimination technology ensures stable digital sync and superior sound clarity for both studio and mobile recording.

Portable and Expandable
Built for travel, its shockproof metal chassis, sealed controls, and military-grade circuitry ensure durability, while FireWire bus power provides true 48V phantom power without an adapter. With 10 inputs, zero-latency monitoring, and daisy-chain support for up to 52 channels, it offers studio flexibility anywhere you go.
