Take a break during a mix session or jam to your heart's content with the Forty Series. Connect any device and fill your space with rich, immersive sound through Bluetooth 5.0 true wireless stereo (TWS) audio streaming. No cables, no hassle – just pure, uninterrupted audio.Get ready to experience the magic of Instant Listening Modes!
We appreciate the time and precision that goes into creating a perfect final mix, but we also understand that music is enjoyed outside of a perfectly treated acoustic space. With this in mind, we have designed a simple button on the front panel that allows you to easily switch from a ruler-flat mix reference to HYPE mode, which emulates a mix commonly found in headphones and car stereos. You can also experiment with a custom mode that lets you control every parameter of your sound using the M-Audio Forty Series Control App.
Customise your Sound with the M-Audio Forty Series Control App
The Control app gives you the power to shape your sound the way you want. Access customisable presets and a 5-band EQ to tailor your output to your room and your preferences via front-panel Instant Listening Modes. Rear panel trim controls let you adjust your XLR and TRS analogue inputs, ensuring these monitors fit seamlessly into any studio setup.
