Arturia has announced the release of an updated version of its popular audio interface — MiniFuse 2 OTG. The device is specifically designed for modern creators, musicians, and streamers who need studio-quality sound not just at their desktop, but also on the go. The new product promises to turn any smartphone, tablet, or laptop into a full-fledged recording studio.
Next-Gen Mobile Studio: What is OTG?
The main feature of the updated interface is the support for OTG (On-The-Go) technology. This is not just an extra port, but a complete shift in the philosophy of mobile recording. Thanks to the USB-C connection, MiniFuse 2 OTG allows you to connect directly to a smartphone or tablet simultaneously with a standard connection to a workstation (PC/Mac).
This solves the age-old problem of complex routing and adapters. Now users can record vocals, instruments, or line sources with high-quality preamps and send the finished mix straight to a mobile device. This ensures significantly higher audio quality compared to built-in gadget microphones, which is critical for professional content.
Capture. Create. Stream.
MiniFuse 2 OTG is positioned as an intuitive "all-in-one" solution. The interface is perfect for creating live audio content on the go. The flexible design with dual USB ports allows you to not only easily route audio between multiple devices (for example, between two computers or a computer and a phone) but also use Loopback and Direct Monitoring functions.
Control is managed via the proprietary MiniFuse Control Center app, giving full command over audio streams. This makes the device an ideal choice for live streaming, recording podcasts in the field, or jam sessions. Additionally, the interface can be powered by a standard power bank, making it truly autonomous.
