Midas Mic Preamplifier

STUDIO L comes with two state-of-the-art Midas microphone preamplifiers with +48V phantom power, ultralow noise, high gain, and audiophile quality.

Ultra-Clear Signal Path

• The STUDIO L is more than just a monitor controller, as Behringer added one of the best USB audio interfaces with the highest possible resolution and lowest latency. Full 192 kHz sampling rate at a clear 24-bit resolution will make you smile listening to the crisp and astonishing sound you’ll get.
• With the STUDIO L, you won’t have to worry about any USB noise or hum. It features a super-quiet USB I/O with a lower output impedance that allows for even higher output volume.

VCA Control – Beyond a Basic Volume Knob

• The STUDIO L utilizes high-end Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA) technology. While conventional monitor controllers directly pass the signal through the volume potentiometer, the STUDIO L controls a separate high-precision amplifier circuit that drives the volume change. For perfect stereo and phase coherence, precision level adjustment, accurate sound, and no quality degradation over time.
• The large dial allows you to make precise adjustments with ease and set levels fast and accurately—critical to the final sound when it comes to mixing and mastering.

The All-In Device

• The STUDIO L integrates seamlessly into your existing setup. You can even make it the centerpiece of your studio. Thanks to the built-in audio interface and Midas microphone pre-amps it becomes an all-in-one recording solution, just add your computer and you’re ready to go.
• Instantly switch between audio sources, USB and monitor outputs. The large volume knob makes it easy to dial-in the perfect level every time, without having to reach for your mixer—or your mouse. Now you can create powerful, custom monitor mixes. Plus, the built-in Talkback mic lets you communicate directly with the talent.

Get Connected

• The STUDIO L comes with two pairs of input connectors and a 3.5mm stereo input for connecting a smartphone or music player as well as two pairs of high-quality outputs to connect your favorite monitor speakers.
• The first 2 inputs can be fed by a line source or any type of microphone, in any combination—operating in dual mono or stereo-link mode. Not to mention the 2-Track output, which can be used for a variety of applications. Connect a 2-track digital recorder, an additional soundcard, mixer, or whatever you require.

Communication Is Key

• No need for a desk stand and an external mic to talk to the talent in the isolation booth. STUDIO L’s high-quality, built-in microphone is just a button push away, so you can save your mics for the drum kit. The onboard headphone amplifier section lets you connect 2 pairs of headphones with individual level controls and a common source selector, which will make the next session one of your best.
• The STUDIO L also comes with the most important switches exactly where you need them—right at your fingertips. Mono and Mute buttons and even a Dim switch, which instantly reduces the signal going to the monitor speakers by 20 dB. Perfect for momentarily lowering the volume to talk to someone without moving the knob.
