Arturia AudioFuse Audio Interface

I personally own the antelope audio zen tour. Its about 2 grand though. Price wise its not near the arturia so I didn't mention it. Quality and features are amazing. Ive used many audio interfaces in my time and Antelope Audio is my choice but Im glad the Arturia works for you. I cant see a power supply being such an issue in 2020. There are many cheap laptop powered interfaces out there for whatever you need to do on the go. I wouldnt spend $600 for that feature. Audio quality is the most important feature if were being honest and in my experience, which is vast, Antelope is as good as it gets under 5 grand. Your not going to be recording instruments or vocals in a car or on a plane so why spend $600 for that option? Best for that is the ik multimedia i-rig pro hd. Powered by your laptop or phone and even has phantom power and dedicated headphone jack. Its very small and quality is great for the price. I got mine for $100 on sale and it came with $1500 of free software included at the time I purchased it.

Buyer beware on these. Really do your research. I think the design and feature set is excellent. The sound is probably all you need. But reading comments on Gearslutz and The GearPage, several people complain about how hot these things get. All audio gear gets hot when you are slamming computer chips in a small enclosure. The concern is if this one is getting hotter than similar size boxes from UA or Antelope or Presonus. And if you just choose to ignore said heat, how long does your investment last before it wears out?
