Arturia MiniFuse 1, 1in / 2out USB-C Audio Interface, with 1 Mic/Line/Instrument Preamp, Built-in USB Hub, Loopback and Included Software Bundle - Mac/PC (Black)

The Arturia Minifuse 2 gives a superb flat response. The audio input quality is crystal clear and crisp which is quite unexpected at this price range. My room is not acoustically treated but the voice which I get after recording does not contain any external noise or hiss which is audible to human ears.The output volume (i.e. the volume which is coming out of your computer such as music/ songs/etc.) is not that loud (I use Eris 3.5" Studio Monitors), but is soothing to your ears even if you turn in to full (5 o’clock position). The headphones (I use AKG K52 Wired Over Ear Headphones) output is quite good. For listening to your vocals while recording you need to boost your voice using compressors from your DAW. (I use Nuendo 4).The software bundle which comes with this interface are useful only if you use new updated DAWs (64bit DAWs). The VST plug-ins which comes with Arturia Minifuse 2 does not work with Nuendo 4.The Arturia input sound checking software (Minifuse Control Centre) is of great help to fix the gain of your microphone/ instruments. You can turn the the 48V on/off from the computer without physically pressing the button on your Minifuse 2 interface, which is a great feature.The gain level of the microphone (condenser or dynamic) is quite good as compared to many other interfaces in the market. If you keep the knob at 11 o'clock position, the input signal sounds perfectly fine (I use sE Electronics X1 A Professional Large-diaphragm Condenser Microphone) and input level does not clip at all. You can also check from the Minifuse Control Centre that your input voice is clipping or not. (**Clipping means if the voice you hear from the output of your speakers is hitting the max upper limit and is distorting or is unclear. It is said to be a good output if your voice which comes out of the speakers are smooth, clear and crisp. The easiest way to understand this is by noticing the blue lights on the gain knobs in your Arturia Minifuse 2. If it turns red, it means the audio input is clipping.)Coming to the knobs, they are quite sturdy and give a premium feel as they are rubberized.The Direct monitor button is an additional plus point to the Arturia minifuse 2. If you turn that on, you can hear on both your earphones which really helps a lot while monitoring.As a whole, this is a wonderful device and must be purchased if you are a music lover like me and want to have your own home studio. It is undoubtedly a professional device.The loopback feature is another plus point to the device. It helps you to record the audio on your computer, which is very useful if you intend to record something you hear on the computer.Last but not the least, if your room is prone to dust, do not purchase the “White” colour Minifuse 2 as it will get dirty in few days of use.A USB-C to USB A cable comes with the device which is good for low latency. The latency which is there is quite low and will not be a problem while monitoring. Try to lower the sample rate if you want low latency, but it will hardly matter if you are using it for your home studio.Stay musical.Indranil Banerjee (from Kolkata, India)

Good nice product I use last 7 manth koi problem nhi leleo

This is a genuine review after using arturia minifuse..i think this is just amazing productVery high standard audio interface in very low price....unfortunately the piece i have recieved there is some problem in volume controlar knob and there is no replacement policy so I have to return back as well as it is not support with my samsung devices .But in my pc ..... It's just wow ....

I love it ❣️Even the packaging is really sturdy on this one - Arturia Brand packaging + Seller's bubble wrap + Amazon's Cardboard Box + One Fragile Sticker at the top ( Yes the product is really fragile ) 😀I've made a research and came to the point that up until Aug 2023 and at this price point This Minifuse 2 audio interface is the best in class📍Pros :1) Solid build quality ( Many people are saying is build quality is not so good but you'll feel premium quality, Arturia is not a cheap brand )2) Low noise preamp3) If you are using a condenser microphone you'll able to drive the mic even with the gain knob set to arround 50% which is really goodBecause this Minifuse 2 ( or even Minifuse 1 ) has 50 dB of maximum system gain and 56 Db of gain range ( Yes two are different )For reference the Presonus studio 24C has 46 Db of maximum system gain ( For that I had to set the gain arround 80% to get a healthy signal of -12dBfs4) Can drive 250 ohm headphones5) Haven't tried the line outputs, but they are generally good6) Direct monitor mix knob ( Handy for vocal recordings )7) 5 Years warranty8) Usable software package ( Haven't tried yet )Cons:1) The frequency response at maximum gain is not flat, Like it'll be 3db roll off at around 18K and above at max gain2) Channel balance is 1.5A, Which means if you have your headphone knob at tge lowest possible level you'll hear different volume on your left and right headphones of 1.5dB differenceBut this isn't that bad because you'll turn your knob at arround 50% or above for 250 ohm headphones and 25% and above for 32 ohm3) Arturia control software is buggy ( Blinking everytime )These cons aren't that big con to be honestNow, If you are a music producer and songwriter and singer or pro musician you should get the Minifuse 2 rather than the one because of the two inputs and the monitor mix knobBut if you don't want to hear youself with the beat while recording ( Can be possible by turning the gain down on the beat to match the vocal recording level ) and only ever need one input go for the Minifuse 1But I'll still suggest to invest in Minifuse 2, Value for money 💰Anyways, Hope you like my review ( If you have any questions please ask I'll try to answer )This is my review after 5 days of testing and I will keep the review updatedThis review is done on 22 Aug 2023

This ACTUALLY offers a better value for money in comparison with other brands like focusrite, Maudio, Audient and Native Instruments. Has one of the best preamps in this price range (2nd only to Maudio air 192|4) and comes with one of the best set of plugins package - all of them are very useful. Built like a tank, almost like the Scarlett. And also has a Tupe-C port which can power your midi board - super useful. Doesn't come with auto gain control tho (like the EVO4).Go for it if you have a budget under 15k. If you have a bigger budget then go for MOTU M2

Arturia has perfectly nailed a budget audio interface market with this amazingly aesthetic product! i would personally recommend budding producers to go for the two channel one. me being a guitar player and producer found it really helpful to have the midi option for switching of Neural DSP plugin for live use . also an added USB slot helps . good preamps and also good bundle to start off your journey as a producer.. All the Best!

This is amazing interface with a lot of features and justify it's price.

Saw most of the audio interface and finally found this one and trusted on this.It surprised me. It does a great job and provides a great bundle of software with it. A must-buy if you're looking for an audio interface in a budget home studio.

Atendeu as minhas expectativas.

Apenas llevo 2 dias con ella, y realmente no tiene nada que ver la calidad de esta Minifuse 2 con la U-phoria UM2, ya que vengo de ella.La calidad de sonido de grabación es muchísimo mejor que cualquiera de su precio!! ya que ofrece un perfecto software y drivers que te ayudarán a trabajar mejor, su ASIO me parece increíble para tener baja latencia (sabiendo, claro, que tengo una pc con un Ryzen 5 5500).La construcción de esta interfaz es muy resistente, el cuerpo es de metal, los knobs son de forrado engomado, y da una textura muy satisfactoria al usarlos!!Solo el único detalle, elijan bien el color porque yo me amensé, no vi que color pedí ya hasta como 2 horas despues jasjsajasjs, pero aun asi es un color muy bonito.y de acuerdo a lo que veo y he probado al momento de grabar, simplemente no subas mas de 50% el knob de la entrada de microfono para que no entre ruido, asi te evitas muchas cosas y tienes una calidad clarisima!y pues nada, si son de morelos y quiere que les grabe pues échenme un grito brrrr!!pd: solo productores van a leer esto, no se porque comente esto 😓😓

Loving my Minifuse 1. Great sound... The USB port on the back is also a huge plus for laptop users.

I promptly received my Minifuse 2 audio interface from the Amazon Arturia Store and could not be more impressed with the exceptional quality and modern design. The hardware and software seamlessly integrate, accelerating the personal recording workflow. The hardware's knob feel is like nothing I've experienced... soft to the touch, yet turn firmly and smoothly. The knob cap indicator lines light up, which was a pleasant surprise; a soft glow emits from where the knob meets the faceplate, giving it a futuristic look. There’s even a USB hub on the back, freeing up a computer port previously reserved for my authorization dongle. Very convenient!The bundled software sets it apart from the competition, providing a user experience that exceeds expectations. Vintage emulations of staple recording studio gear provide the necessary palette of sounds for any modern audio production.The provided quick start instructions simplified installation by providing a URL to a web page that offers all the included software, along with instructional videos to guide you through the process. After getting the control panel installed, the Arturia updater app downloaded all the included plugins for me, updating to latest versions as well. It’s definitely refreshing that a product delivers not only on design aesthetics, but also provides smooth installation and guidance along the way. Overall, I'm thrilled with my Minifuse and the superior vintage software emulation plugins it comes with. If you're in the market for a reliable, pro-quality, user-friendly interface, complete with software sound set, look no further! Arturia is where it's at.

I love this interface not only because it’s built better than my 2i2 was, but also because the drivers and audio work properly where my 2i2 needed constant reboots. The addition of full sized midi ports is a great bonus and the raw audio recording is very clean with a super low noise floor and a ton of dynamic range.
