Advanced Converter Technology
Clearer, sharper clarity
Providing a MASSIVE 121dB of dynamic range, EVO 16’s high performance converter technology makes sure you hear your audio accurately, helping you make creative decisions confidently, identify issues and improve your recording and mixing game.
Introducing
The Motion user interface (UI) has been designed to change the way you interact with your audio interface. For the first time, a stunning high resolution, full colour LCD screen intelligently displays information as you need it, transforming EVO 16 into a fully immersive, easy to use experience.
Pick The Best Route
Connect and listen to your mixes through multiple sets of speakers with EVO 16’s eight line outputs. Alternatively use the extra line outputs to send audio to external outboard gear, such as compressors or FX units, or to headphone amps for distribution to your artists.
Headphone Outputs
Clarity where you need it most
Drive even the most demanding headphones with EVO 16’s two dedicated headphone amps. Easily power headphones up to 600 Ohms all while experiencing detailed monitoring and playback as well as plenty of volume.
2 x Instrument Inputs
Classic tone, modern sound
To build a monster guitar sound you need the right foundation. Our harmonically rich JFET instrument input circuit is designed to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier, providing an ideal sonic foundation before you hit your guitar sims.
Digital I/O
Room For Expansion
Future proof your studio and configure your setup to tackle bigger sessions. Whether you’re recording drums or taking on a full band, EVO 16’s optical inputs and outputs have got you covered. Supporting both ADAT and SPDIF, add up to 16 channels of mic preamps to your setup, giving you plenty of options for expanding your studio down the line. Pairs great with any external mic preamp.
Advanced Monitor Control
For the keen listener
EVO 16 takes critical listening seriously and is packed full of monitoring functionality to back it up. Whether you are switching between two sets of speakers using the ALT monitor feature, checking your mix in Mono or quickly communicating with your artist using Talkback – all features can be activated straight from EVO 16’s front panel. The best part is you get to customise which control is assigned to the hardware F-button.
Talkback
Communication is key
EVO 16’s dedicated talkback technology lets you use any audio source connected to your computer such as a built-in or USB microphone as your talkback mic, freeing up valuable mic preamps for recording.
Ultra-fast USB
Speed meets reliability
In the studio, every second counts – and with rock solid driver performance, high-speed USB connection, and ultra low latency monitoring, EVO 16 will always deliver the reliability needed to keep up with your creativity.

Looks that could kill
Who said interfaces have to look utilitarian?
EVO 16 has been meticulously designed to look amazing on both your desktop and in your rack. Super bright backlit LED lighting not only looks stunning but ensures visibility in the darkest of studios, whilst a solid steel chassis makes sure EVO 16 is built to last.
Portable
Stacked or Racked
Although packed full of features, EVO 16 defies the normal with its deceptively small form factor. At just over 14” wide with non-slip rubber feet, EVO 16 works perfectly whether on your desktop, under your laptop or as a permanent fixture to your studio with optional rack ears.
Environmentally Friendly
In order to minimise our environmental impact, EVO 16’s detachable rack ears will be available as an optional extra, reducing required raw materials, shipping volumes, and thus our carbon footprint. We have also taken great steps to ensure EVO 16’s.
