M1 Models and Options

M1 Models and Options

There are 3 basic M1 models.

Each model has identical monitoring facilities, but a different number of inputs and record inserts. As the number of inputs and inserts grow, some extra features become available and the size of the control panels also increases.

Between these 3 models, we can accommodate the vast majority of your mastering needs.

The three models are:

• M1-3AI (M1 with 3 analogue inserts)
• M1-7AI (M1 with 7 analogue inserts)
• M1-11AI (M1 with 11 analogue inserts)
