Founded in 1980, MOTU – short for Mark of the Unicorn – specialises in solutions for computer-based music production. Its range includes audio interfaces, MIDI interfaces, networked audio systems, software instruments and the professional Digital Performer DAW.
MOTU serves recording professionals, producers, musicians and home studio users. One important milestone was the MOTU 828, an early FireWire audio interface for Mac and Windows. Since then, the brand has combined high-quality audio technology with flexible connectivity for studio, stage and mobile production. Read more…
MOTU develops hardware and software for recording, music production and professional audio applications. The company is particularly well known for its audio interfaces, which combine high-quality AD/DA conversion, stable drivers and extensive connectivity.
Depending on the model, the interfaces are suitable for compact home studios, mobile recording, large production environments and professional live setups. Alongside conventional audio connections, MOTU also offers solutions for MIDI, digital interfaces and network-based audio systems.
The range includes audio interfaces with different channel counts and formats, as well as specialised MIDI interfaces for integrating synthesizers, drum machines, controllers and other electronic equipment. Models from the 828, M Series and MIDI Express ranges cover a wide variety of studio and stage requirements.
The devices are designed for users who value reliable signal transmission, flexible routing and straightforward integration into existing production environments.
Another important area for MOTU is AVB-compatible audio interfaces. AVB stands for Audio Video Bridging and enables multiple audio channels to be transmitted over an Ethernet network. Several compatible devices can therefore be combined into a scalable audio system.
Network-based audio solutions can reduce cabling requirements in studios, venues and live recording applications. At the same time, they allow centralised management of inputs, outputs, routing and monitoring within larger setups.
In addition to hardware, MOTU also develops professional music software. The Digital Performer DAW provides extensive functions for audio recording, MIDI sequencing, composition, mixing and post-production. It is designed for musicians, producers, engineers and composers who work on complex projects within an integrated production environment.
The range is complemented by virtual instruments, sounds and other software solutions. MOTU therefore covers key areas of modern music production, from recording and controlling external instruments to editing, mixing and delivering extensive audio projects.
