"The Traveler mic pres are excellent. I'd have no hesitation whatsoever in using the Traveler mic preamps for almost any application - they return a colourful, involving sound with bags of detail and a convincing musicality." - Robin Bigwood, Sound On Sound magazine, September 2006.
The Traveler-mk3 is a mobile Firewire audio interface for Mac and Windows computers that provides eight channels of pristine 192kHz analog recording and playback combined with twenty channels of digital I/O in ADAT optical, AES/EBU and S/PDIF formats.
Engineered for portable recording situations with either desktop or laptop computers, the Traveler-mk3 can draw power from its Firewire
connection to the computer, or via a separate power supply (supplied). The Traveler-mk3 inherits many features from MOTU’s award-winning Traveler interface and adds many additional significant new features, including V-Limit™ signal overload protection, true hi-Z guitar inputs, a 32-bit floating point DSP for on-board effects and mixing, two banks of configurable optical I/O and much more.
The Traveler-mk3's included CueMix FX software provides two new advanced diagnostic tools: real-time FFT and spectrogram "waterfall" displays for visual analysis of individual audio signals and entire mixes.
Four combo jacks - hi-Z 1/4” guitar input or low-Z XLR mic input with transparent preamps, phantom power, pad and plenty of gain.
