Arturia's ADAT input expander

The AudioFuse X8 IN is a purpose-built 8-channel analogue-to-ADAT converter designed to extend the line-level input capacity of ADAT-compatible interfaces such as Arturia's AudioFuse Studio or AudioFuse 16Rig. Housed in a compact half-width, 1U aluminium chassis, it provides eight balanced TRS inputs alongside dual optical outputs supporting up to 24-bit/96kHz conversion. By expanding analogue input capacity without redundant features, the X8 IN keeps synthesizers, outboard processors, or external mixers permanently connected and recording-ready.

High-resolution conversion and signal integrity

The AudioFuse X8 IN's high-quality A/D converters deliver up to 119dB dynamic range with low distortion, preserving detail even in demanding sessions. Each channel offers selectable operating levels between +4dBu and -10dBV via front-panel pad controls, ensuring compatibility with both professional and consumer hardware. The DC-coupled analogue path accepts audio and CV/Gate signals, enabling digital capture and transmission via ADAT into DAW environments. A BNC Word Clock input with switchable 75 ohm termination makes sure synchronisation remains stable within larger digital systems.

Practical hardware integration

The half-width rack format with removable ears allows flexible desktop or rack installation, and two units can be mounted side-by-side for expanded setups. Dual ADAT outputs maintain channel counts at higher sample rates, using S/MUX operation when supported by the host interface. Front-panel Link functionality enables stereo channel pairing for faster configuration when working with stereo synths or processors, reinforcing a straightforward, hardware-focused workflow designed for demanding hybrid studios.

About Arturia

Arturia's success story began with software emulations of well-known analogue synthesizers such as the Moog Minimoog, Sequential Prophet-5, and Oberheim SEM. The popular software instruments included in the V Collection are still flagship products of the French developer today. Over time, Arturia has gradually expanded its range and now also offers a host of hardware devices, ranging from synthesizers and keyboard controllers to sequencers. Since then, the former software developer has thus also become a household name in the world of analogue synthesizers and other equipment.

AudioFuse Creative Suite

AudioFuse X8 IN includes the AudioFuse Creative Suite, featuring a curated selection of Arturia effects inspired by classic studio hardware – such as Pre 1973, Pre V76, Pre TridA, Comp FET-76, Rev PLATE-140, Delay TAPE-201, Chorus JUN-6, Filter MINI, and Phaser BI-TRON – providing studio-quality tools that extend the unit’s role from signal capture to full production workflows. Analog Lab Intro adds a curated collection of synthesizer, keyboard, orchestral and hybrid sound presets drawn from Arturia's renowned V Collection, providing immediate access to a wide palette of playable sounds. As bundled software may evolve, the manufacturer's website should be consulted for current details.

Eight extra ins without any fuss
RobSt 27.10.2024
I own about 4 synths, and wanted to use them as 'external instruments' within Ableton. Before, I had my synths all coming in via input 1 and 2 on my audio interface, resulting in routing complications/limitations. The AudioFuse proved the perfect and, if I did my research well, most affordable solution.

I've connected my AudioFuse to my audio interface via ADAT (don't forget to remove the plastic caps on the cable tips - like I did), set the clock source on my audio interface to 'optical' and both units at the same sample rate. Then it was just a matter of selecting the extra inputs in Abletons Input Config screen and setting up the external instruments.

The perfect extension for Apollo Twin
Pucks (Pim Schilperoort) 15.05.2026
Quick and easy to install: just connect the ADAT out to the ADAT in of the Apollo. It's not necessary to install the Arturia mixing software because the UAD Console shows the 8 inputs automatically. Linking two inputs as a stereo pair is done via the UAD Console.

Soundwise - @48kHz: no complaints at all! My vintage synths are recorded perfectly.

So connect, plug in your synths and forget the AudioFuse X8 IN even exists. (ok - you have to switch it on) Lovely stuff!

Klingt gut, super verarbeitet, aber ...
Guidodeluxe 29.12.2024
Positiv:
- Die Verarbeitung ist super solide.
- der Klang ist top (wie beim Rig16).
- HighZ Clock Modus für Clock Chains.
- Preis/Leistung.

Negativ:
- Inputs lassen sich nur über das Audiofuse Control Center (Software) regeln.
- Ein clocken von Extern über ADAT ist nicht möglich, sondern nur über Word Clock (BNC-Buchse).
- Die USB C-Buchse für Firmware Updates ist INNERHALB des Geräts verbaut, d. h. für jedes Update muss die Kiste aus dem Rack geschraubt werden (zwei verschiedene Schraubenarten und beide winzig), dann muss die Frontplatte abgeschraubt werden und man muss vorsichtig die auf die Platine gelötete USB C-Buchse mit dem Computer verbinden.

Tipp:
- die Bohrungen auf der THON Rackwanne 1HU ( <a class="article link" href="thon_rackwanne_1he.htm">Thon Rack Adapter 1U 25</a>) sind so, dass man die Rackwanne anstelle der vorderen beiden Gummifüße (mit den zu den Gummifüßen gehörenden Schrauben) unter das X8 schrauben kann. Das X8 sitzt dann wahlweise links oder rechts bündig auf der Rackwanne.

Simple et efficace
jaycek 15.11.2024
Comme tous les produits Arturia c’est bien conçu et bien construit.
Je l’utilise avec une Apollo X6 en Smux, tous les canaux en 96khz.
Attention, j’ai aussi une Apollo X4 couplée avec la X6 et dans ce cas il est impératif de relier Audiofuse avec le câble BNC pour que la X6 soit maître (ou avec une autre clock).
Derrière j’ai 4 synthé connectés.
Les canaux s’ajoutent immédiatement dans la console Universal Audio.
Côté audio, c’est parfait, rien à dire.
