The Studio 26c is a 2 channel interface that has combi XLR/TRS inputs that feature PreSonus’ professional-grade XMAX mic preamps.

5-Pin MIDI
The set of 5-Pin MIDI connections on the back of the interface means that you can not only connect hardware synthesisers into your DAW system, but also lets you control changes on compatible outboard gear.
