Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
AudioFuse 16Rig is a USB-C interface and routing hub for studio synth systems, keyboard setups, and larger recording jobs. Its 16 analog inputs, 12 analog outputs, ADAT, word clock, and full 5-pin MIDI connections give a rig multiple paths to connect and organize. Away from a computer, it can serve as a stand-alone mixer and MIDI distribution rig, with MIDI-controllable low-latency mixing and saved settings available for recall during a performance.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Coordinating a studio with multiple synthesizers through analog, ADAT, word-clock, and MIDI connections.
- Recording a full band using the interface’s 16 analog inputs.
