A complete software package with virtual instruments, recording applications, and effects is included – recording and music production have never been simpler.
MiniFuse comes from the award-winning Arturia AudioFuse range of professional audio interfaces. It is universally compatible (class-compliant) and USB bus-powered, so you can connect it directly and use it immediately, without needing an external power source. Recording thus becomes extremely accessible.
MiniFuse 1 easily integrates into any setup, with a simple structure of inputs and outputs. The unique combo input allows you to connect both XLR cables and 1/4” jacks. Connect it to your computer via USB-C, fast and compact. Additionally, you can connect USB devices such as MIDI keyboards (up to 250mA) through the extra USB hub port.
Top Sound For audiophiles, MiniFuse offers a dynamic range of 110 dB and an input equivalent noise of -129 dB, class-leading. For everyone else, this means that every recording sounds incredible: with rich dynamics, clear signal, and no noise, at studio quality – without compromise.
Robust and Portable Design Take your studio with you wherever you go. MiniFuse is not only compact and lightweight, but it also has a durable aluminium housing, perfect for producers on the move. Put it in your bag, step out of the house, and discover the sound that inspires you.
Total Compatibility Whether you use a laptop or a desktop, MiniFuse works perfectly. PC or Mac, connect it and enjoy total freedom in recording. Moreover, with the MiniFuse Control Center application, you can control inputs, outputs, settings, and firmware updates – all from one place.
LoopBack Function The virtual LoopBack channel allows you to record or stream any additional audio source directly from your computer – from clips for podcasts to backing tracks from the browser – without needing extra input channels.
