- Let's take a look at the new AudioFuse 16Rig from Arturia.
Fist: It's not cheap but in this category of audio interfaces, it pretty much defines the saying "a lot of bang for the buck".
It's honestly one of the most competent audio interfaces I've every tried out. What more can I say?
I'm doing a few audio test here between the Audiofuse 16 Rig and my Apollo x8 from Universal audio and I gotta say that this new Arturia interface really holds up.
No affiliate links or anything, I'm just glad I got the opportunity to check this one out.

You’re the ONLY MF WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT SOUND WHEN TALKING ABOUT THIS INTERFACE!! Thank you!!!
I had the Audio fuse 8 and loved it. Sold it to get more in/outs. Now they come out with this it, looks incredible
Excellent breakdown Accurate 👌😃
Love mine! So much better than my old MOTU gear, it boggles the mind. Things actually work!
Accurate Beats. Thanks for your video. Detailed, informative and nicely presented , Man.
Thanks so much for making this video! A lot of love went into this product and it's great that you really got it. Loved the comparison to the X8!
Har det bra!
Got this coming tomorrow with a WA76 - much needed upgrade in those areas. Good overview, appreciate the detail buddy.
How'd you find one so fast? Sweetwater told me first week of December 😒
I'm in UK, Gear4Music. But I did see it was sold out on a few other big retailers here. Rigging mine in this weekend. Unit feels solid.@@clayperdue1798
The 16Rig is living up to the hype for me. It hits the sweet spot for price point/value and feature set. Thanks!
Great Review:))
Bro. How do the DAC sounds compares to the Apollo x? The output sound it's so important for me...have a Cranborne Audio R8 which is incredibly natural and dynamic so I wouldn't want to miss that if I get the Arturia...
❤ love from France
It has plenty of inputs for recording drums......this looks very interesting thanks
Sago Accurate 👍👍👍
From the cheapest to the most expensive audio interfaces are audibly transparent. It's all about the features and this little beast has the features.
Can you show more of the ADAT setup?
Can you tell me how hot the unit gets when you use more inputs? (Also, are you noticing the DC Offset mentioned in the Julian Krause -video?)
This unit stands absolutely alone. How could not appreciate innovation.
Hey, the inputs have TRS connectors, so you can use some convertors to XLR to use them whit mics. Thanks for the info.
Those are line level inputs. Meaning it doesn’t have any preamp @huacalorecords6069
I need a tutorial on hooking gear up and routing. I am totally lost on how to do this
If only the Motu 16A had USB host and midi mapping, I wouldn’t even be interested in another interface. Cheers!
If the drivers supported Windows WDM like Focusrite does, then I would be interested in it.
Do you prefer this over a tascam model 12?
This might be a great addition to my Soundcraft 22MTK for live analogue mixing to my DAW. What is your opinion? Respect
I had similar thoughts (I have an mtk also), although not as clean a solution as having direct outs like an AH Mixwiz or soundcraft fx16. That way you'd have some hands on eq going into the daw if that's what you were going for
@@cesarsjogren The FX16 is more suited?
How does it stack up against the Apogee Symphony?
Idk the RME Fireface has a built in recorder for standalone application.
can you use for Atmos rig
Hey Brother, thanks for a great overview. I'm curious how you have the outputs routed so that you can sample into MPC. I'm trying to build a hybrid setup where I can sample anything from my synths, VSTs and Computer into my MPC 1000. Is there a way to mirror the master out from Logic pro?
Thanks!
Yeah, the main output can definitely be routed to any of the outputs here. You can’t really send an input to multiple output destinations but setting everything up to run into an MPC is exactly what I do too. And it works great.
It takes a bit of time to get used to the control center software but once you get the hang of it, the possibilities are almost endless.
@@AccurateBeats Awesome! Appreciate the quick response. Love all your work!
@AccurateBeats could you test with the MPC X to see if it would work as a standalone interface to achieve 16 outputs.. just about all interfaces have distortion and pops and clicks..
I purchased Arturia Audiofuse 16 Rig, worked solid for 3 weeks. Setup was straight forward, learning curve with AudioFuse Control Center wasn't too bad. Then last week it would no longer be recognized by AudioFuse Control Center, did a power cycle and it would not power back up. Attempted to contact Arturia support and the only way to contact them is via email. Sent email and they reply within 2 hrs with generic troubleshooting steps, power cycle, ensure it's connected to a functional power source, etc.. Ask that I send them a video
Thank you for reaching out to us and sorry to read about these inconveniences.
Did you out of curiosity tested the power adapter with a Voltmeter and if not, do you have any to just confirm the voltage currently outputted?
If confirmed as faulty, we should be able to ship a replacement power supply as soon as possible.
-Could you please just also confirm that you always ensure holding the "A" button at least one or two sec (as just pressing it really fast may not allow it to power on)?
-Also, if you look at the back of your unit do you see any Red light coming from the ADAT ports or not at all?
-Finally, if you hold during a few seconds (around 5 sec) the "A" button and then try to open the "AudioFuse Control Center" is it seeing the unit as being currently plugged in or not (and possibly asking for any firmware update)?
If this persists, make sure to provide the following information:
-- Your proof of purchase (Dated invoice / bill):
-- Your full name:
-- Your shipping address:
-- Zip Code:
-- Your phone number:
-- Proof of defect: Video showing the currently observed behavior (and if possible, the outputted voltage or the fact that another power adapter is working fine if you have any compatible one).

Thank you by advance and looking forward to hearing from you!

I send them back everything including the video that describes the problem in detail. I get a reply back saying.
"Usually, technical requests get answered within 48h. However, this could take longer as some of our staff are enjoying the Christmas holidays with their families.
If you haven't received any answer from us yet, please do not send us another one as this may add extra time in processing your request.
Thanks for understanding, and happy holidays!

This email is a service from Arturia Support."
I got this email a week ago. it's currently May 2024. This company must give extended time off for Christmas.
I ended up sending this unit back to return. I would advise not to go with Arturia due to the lack of support that you will get. Investing in a product from a company you can't pick a phone up to call and appears as they don't care about customers.
Oh, wow!
This is no good!
Do you mind if I send this comment over to my contact at Arturia?
Maybe not to provide a solution (who am I to promise anything?) but just to make the marketing team aware?
@@AccurateBeats Sure be my guest. Hopefully it will help them iron out some things for the next person.
Is there a high frequency running very low on the Arturia? When you switched to uad it was gone, if you switched back,but was there again
Ground loops can happen for millions of reasons.
What is the rountrip latency with this interface at 24 bit with 48, 96klhz. M1 mini mac logic pro anyone?
Is it me or in the audio test 2, there is clearly much more noise on audiofuse interfaces while apollo one is a lot cleaner ?!
yup i hear it too
How is the latency? Windows or Mac user?
I just got one today and uted the RTL utility to check this out. @ 44k 64 sample buffer I was getting around 7ms round trip latency. windows 11
@@jwalkermed thanks for relaying that! Any idea how that stacks up against the competition?
Which 1 Would You Truly Choose For A Music Artist.
Out of the two in this video? 16Rig. The Apollo is definitely overkill for most people and the price for a longer thunderbolt cable is ridiculous.
16Rig is great if you need that number of tracks but a smaller audio interface would probably be a better option for most.
UA Volt 4 is a great option for smaller setups
I was going to buy this but then instead for the same price I bought a Tascam model 24. Same price and twice the inputs with multitrack
'promo sm'
This arturia interface is exactly it : an entry-level interface. Thanks for the cuckles.
The sound quality is anything but entry-level.
@@Jason75913 Damn weprofessional must be quite imbecile as we buy interfaces that are 2-3x more expensive. I bought 1 Arturia product (a MIDI controller) and a year later it was in the trash as repairs were half the price of a good controller. I surely will not buy anothing from them again.
@@Jason75913Agreed.
no thunderbolt...no thanks
is this a paid review?
