Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the Arturia MiniFuse 2 and discuss when you might want the MiniFuse 1 over the MiniFuse 2. I also compare it to the Audient ID14 and Focusrite 2i2 3rd gen. This thing offers a 56dB gain range, an EIN of -129dBa, sufficiently powered headphone amp, direct monitoring, midi I/O, and a USB hub which is a pretty useful addition.

One thing I haven't seen interface demos haven't done is - how big real-time plugin load drivers can take without starting to crackles & pop. I've experienced a wide difference in that with interfaces, but it's also dependent on background CPU load too. By the real-time, I mean tracking session situation (64 sample buffer as max).

A year late to this video, but since I already own the ”Big Daddy” Arturia AudioFuse Studio and love, it was natural to see what you think of the Fuse Mini. I'm shopping for a simple 2 channel that I can use with my iPad and a midi controller, a touring friendly combo. Just discovered the Loopy Pro app and I'm now almost convinced this interface is going to be great. But, I'll still check your take on the ID4 first, that's a bit sturdier for travelling, I dunno… Thanks for the great video, nice guitar playing!

The Focusrite also lets you output to one channel, which the Motu does not, at least in Windows. (Don't know about the others.) It's a very small point, but there are softwares that don't let you record as 1-channel when the input is 2-channel, which might mean you have to mix it down to one channel as a later step. (Apart from that, the Motu is great for me.)

I am a beginner at MIDI only playing guitar with BIAS FX and a Katana Artist amp, but I might add a keyboard next-the synth tools are really tempting. The thing I really like was the option to get white. Nearly all guitar equipment is black-my least favorite color!

This was great! I was curious about how this audio interface performed with your headphones. How was the latency when using the monitor feature while recording? And how was the listening experience during editing, recording, playback (does the audio interface have enough power for high impedance headphones)? And that mini guitar layering thing you did had me in my feels haha.
@Podcastage

I had no issue monitoring guitar. Monitoring voice with any latency is always weird. More than enough power for my HD650’s while playing back. When mixing between playback and zero latency you do need to increase headphone volume pretty high.

There are several decent choices for "step above entry level" audio interfaces (and the quirky Audient Evo 4 is a mighty nice budget choice) and this is one of them. It's $20 cheaper and a bit longer than the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd generation but it has loopback. The 2i2 is kind of the benchmark so I will compare it to that model. The low end is a hair thinner than the 2i2 but the real screwy thing is the metering. Focusrite got some flak for just having input metering being lighted dials that change color (green, yellow and red) instead of "real" metering as in the Motu M2 (a bit more expensive and bigger than the 2i2 but with loopback and good audio across the board). Arturia offers output metering similar to Motu but the input metering is worse than the 2i2 -- it only flashes red (and with a bit of a delay) when clipping. The green-to-yellow zone is more helpful in maintaining recording levels. Arturia should have gravitated closer to the Motu. Arturia gets some rave reviews but I don't see it as the greatest thing since sliced bread. The cheaper Audient Evo 4 is plastic and quirky but good sound while the somewhat more expensive Motu M2 is low noise, great metering and arguably a better lower end. The 2i2, even in 3rd generation, is getting long in the tooth and maybe Focusrite will incorporate the best of the competition in the update (and then again maybe not). If you can live with the quirks and metering, then this would be a good choice. The preamps are certainly clean enough and it's $50 cheaper than the Motu M2 which recently had a price increase. The cheaper Evo 4 has loopback, clean gain preamps and incremental metering (though learning the red zone is trial and error with the Evo 4) in its plastic body. The 2i2 has the "vintage" air circuitry (which I don't use) and a bit richer sound. With all the flak the 2i2 gets over metering Arturia should have offered what Motu does, not worse than the 2i2. Many people will never use loopback although it's nice to have and Focusrite should have included it in the 2i2 3rd generation. I can't "officially" recommend the Arturia because of the metering. If that's not a problem and you can live with a bit thinner low end then you'll save $20 over the 2i2 by getting this. Certainly competent but not the greatest thing since sliced bread. If you can spend $50 more, get the M2 and don't look back.

I have the Evo 8, Evo 16, Motu M2, and have had the Scarlett 4i4 and 8i6 3rd gens. Favorite of the bunch is the M2. Put the Evo 8 on main computer audio duty for now, figuring out some quirks (USB C 1.5 amp power required for phantom power to all 4 mic inputs ((powered USB A hub won't work to get all 4)), other audio sources won't play if you have your DAW open - unless you set Windows audio to be the same bit/sample rate as your DAW, and setting the proper source for loopback to actually work... Pain, but doable). Oddly, the Evo 16 doesn't have as many quirks as the Evo 8. Lol. But yet, here I am, looking at other interfaces, always shopping and comparing. :)

I bought the Minifuse two weeks ago and no complaint so far and it does have a 5 years warranty, but if you worry too much about level meters, I'd suggest the Motu M2 too. If build quality matters to you, just run away from the Evo 4 (and from the Komplete Audio aswell but it's still better)... Plastic isn't always an issue, but when it is that bad... Buttons are the worst kind too. If it was 75 bucks sure I'd understand but that's just not the case. Which sucks because it's preamps seem to perform a bit better.

Hey Bandrew, just wondering about your new test using the mic splitter and how you are doing that? Most 1x3 splitters offer two transformer isolated outputs and a single straight through output, this means the the outputs are not the same and this can affect the sound quality differently between outputs that go through a transformer and the straight pass through which doesn't. The Arturia and the Audient sounded pretty much the same but the Scarlett seemed a tiny bit clearer. Any chance that is due to your splitter rather than differences in the interfaces???
@Podcastage
@Podcastage 2 жыл бұрын
It’s the JS-3 mic splitter. I was concerned that the direct input might skew the results. The Direct 1 thru is 600-ohm. Isolated 1 and Isolated 2 are both 600-ohms as well. My understanding was the direct-1 provided the same output but you used this to power your mics. Also figured this would still be a more accurate representation and comparison than 3 separate takes. If this skews the results so badly that the comparison is worthless, then I guess I can only compare two devices at a time. That’s a fucking bummer and a half. And no that wouldn’t be caused by the splitter. If you’re stating that the direct 600-ohm thru put is different from the isolated outputs then you would have needed to notice the difference from the Arturia and the other two interfaces, then perhaps. But if you noticed it from the Focusrite to the Audient because those were both on the Isolated output 1 and isolated input 2, so that would make zero sense if that was created by the mic splitter.
@7171jay
@7171jay 2 жыл бұрын
One signal going straight through and the others passing through a transformer might not be a huge difference but it is a difference. You should probably do some testing of the through vs the transformer outputs going into two channels of the same interface. Another possible overall issue is that the mic is seeing a different load with all three micpreamps on it compared to the mic just being plugged into one input. This probably wouldn't affect condenser mics much, especially transformerless ones but some dynamic mics like the SM57 are more susceptible to loading. Good luck figuring out all the details of your new testing method. I know you are very detail oriented and will sort it out. You do a really awesome job at what you do!!!

My friends told me that mini fuse products are not good, both 1 & 2 has got some noisy sound while recording acoustic guitar as well as electric guitar. Later he purchase focusrite product, which works perfectly without any noise, the sound is very clean & clear.

[16:57] "If you're a musician, get the Minifuse 2. That additional input is going to come in handy. You may think you just need one microphone, but down the road, you may want to connect a guitar, you may want to get a second microphone and do a stereo XY-having that additional input will be invaluable for you." To anyone who wants to buy a budget audio interface: LISTEN TO THIS MAN!!! The additional money will be worth it! I bought a used Scarlett Solo 3rd gen earlier this year, and it works great. But I still wish that I had that second XLR input. For music recording, not being able to record a second microphone is PAINFUL.

By far the best audi interface review I've seen. And I watched at least 30 to choose between the 2i2, mini fuse, m audio air, and komplete audio 2. Leaning to the mini fuse for the USB, midi, software, and design. Any recommendations?

It's not my primary device so I don't still use it. I cannot comment on whether or not it's good for 5-7 years. My best recommendation on that would be to look at negative reviews on retailers sites to see if there are a lot of negative reviews about the durability.
