audio interfaces 16 channel computer recording

Output counts commonly range from eight balanced line outputs up to 16 outputs on higher-end units. Many models include dedicated speaker outputs, multiple headphone jacks, front-panel monitoring controls, and DC‑coupled line outputs for reamping or connecting modular gear.

Bit depth is typically 24‑bit across these interfaces. Sample rates vary by model — many support operation up to 96 kHz, and at least some interfaces advertise 24‑bit/192 kHz support.

Several units support standalone workflows: some include an internal low‑latency mixer and can process audio and MIDI without a computer, others can record directly to SD cards or external drives, and some can function purely as standalone mic preamps.

Some multi‑output interfaces include advanced speaker processing such as multi‑band EQ, speaker delay, trim and bass management, plus the ability to create and store multiple calibration profiles. They may also integrate with room‑calibration software and support a measurement microphone.

Form factors range from desktop and angled tabletop designs to compact half‑rack chassis. Many devices include removable rack ears for rackmounting and can also sit comfortably on a desktop depending on your workflow.
