Description

A complete audio routing and processing solution for the home studio.

The M-Audio NRV10 combines an 8 x 2 analog mixer, 10 x 10 24-bit/96kHz digital audio interface and a VST-compatible live mixing application in one convenient FireWire package for computer-based recording and performance. Route mixer channels discretely to and from tracks in Ableton Live, Pro Tools M-Powered, and other software.

Now you can route and record mixer channels directly to individual tracks in most popular software studios—including Pro Tools M-Powered. You can also return multiple discrete audio channels from your computer to the NRV10 for CPU-free mixing and monitoring complete with on-board digital effects—great for doing live performances without changing settings like EQ and reverb in your files when you play live. The included NRV10 interFX application even allows you turn your NRV10 and host computer into a powerful live mixer with access to all of your VST effects. The NRV10 seamlessly integrates your computer with your studio and bridges the gap between studio and stage as well.

The NRV10 gives you easy analog mixer control over direct feeds from multiple computer-based tracks. Perfect your studio tracks, then just make temporary tweaks on the NRV10 for live performances. As a bonus, you can run live vocals and more through the same processing you used on those studio tracks. You can even add the NRV10's built-in digital effects to tracks without modifying your files. The NRV10 puts you back in control of the mix that you and your audience hear live.

More Live Uses
The NRV10's live applications are endless.

A laptop, the NRV10 and an M-Audio MIDI controller are a great way to perform them on stage. And if you're recording a band live, the NRV10 lets you easily record different players to separate tracks using an application like Pro Tools M-Powered.

Professional Mixer

There's also a built-in effects section with 16 effects so you don't even need to burden the computer for basic effects—especially handy live or when practicing.
