Turn your computer into
a powerful music production studio with the M-Audio® Fast Track®—the
best-selling recording interface in its category. Featuring a simple
"plug-and-play" USB connection, Fast Track is the easiest way to record
guitar, vocals and more with your PC or Mac. Simply plug in your instruments
and youre ready to rock. Fast Track even offers phantom power so you can
use professional-quality studio condenser microphones like the
M-Audio Nova®. Fast Track is compatible with most
popular music recording applications from GarageBand to studio-standard
Pro Tools® M-Powered*, and includes easy-to-use
Pro Tools M-Powered Essential recording and
effects software so you can start making music immediately.
* Fast Track is compatible with Pro Tools M-Powered 8 and higher. Pro
Tools M-Powered 8 is an expanded version of Pro Tools M-Powered Essential
and is a paid upgrade.
Studio-Quality Features
Fast
Track delivers all the studio-quality features and tools you
need to make professional-sounding recordings right out of
the box. With clean preamps and 24-bit/48kHz sound quality,
you can be sure your instruments and vocals are captured
with better-than-CD quality sound. High-gain speaker and
headphone outputs further ensure youll hear your recordings
with the utmost fidelity.
One for All
Compatibility
In
addition to being compatible with GarageBand, Cubase, Live,
Logic, SONAR, Reason and other music production software,
Fast Track also works with
Pro Tools M-Powered 8*—the same
recording platform used in countless professional studios
around the world to make award-winning albums and film
sound.
Record Your
Guitar Want to record guitar with your computer? How about
recording bass or keyboards? Fast Track is the answer.
Simply connect it via USB to your PC or Mac, plug your
instrument into the convenient 1/4 input and youre good to
go. You can also use the included
Pro Tools M-Powered Essential
recording software and effects to layer tracks with your
instruments and create professional-sounding mixes.
Record Vocals
and Acoustic Instruments Just about every recording interface has a mic input that
accepts dynamic (unpowered) microphones—the kind most bands
use on stage. Fast Track is one of the few in its price
range that also features switchable +48V phantom
power—allowing you to connect a studio-grade condenser
(powered) microphone like the
M-Audio Nova for pro-quality
recordings. The Fast Track interfaces 2-input, 2-output
design even lets you record a vocal mic and another
instrument simultaneously so you can capture song ideas or
collaborate with other musicians. |

Make Music Immediately
Make music immediately with the included
Pro Tools M-Powered Essential—a
powerful recording application that enables you to get
started creating right away. Based on the same Pro Tools
software platform used in pro studios around the world,
Pro Tools M-Powered Essential features professional
effects like reverb, delay, and more—allowing you to
polish your mixes. You also get the Structure® Essential
virtual instrument, which offers an easy way add
instruments like drums, piano and more to your
compositions. Finally, a comprehensive library of
included loops helps you construct song ideas quickly
and easily.
Direct
Monitoring
All
digital audio recording systems introduce a small delay
between the instrument input and the output coming from
the computer. This latency can be distracting enough
to cause pitch and timing errors when youre recording.
Fast Track solves this latency problem with a direct
monitor switch, letting you hear your instruments
directly through the interface before they go into the
computer.
Next Gen
Technology Fast Track builds on the success of the popular Fast
Track USB—one of the products responsible for the
personal and mobile studio revolutions. Weve listened
to our users and added some really cool improvements,
including a simplified direct monitoring system,
top-mounted knobs that provide easier access to
important controls, and a more powerful headphone output
level. With a sleek, redesigned chassis, the all-new
Fast Track looks and performs better than ever.
