The Maono P1 and P2 hybrid audio interfaces allow creators and performers to capture 24-bit, 192 kHz audio from microphones and musical instruments for live streaming and music production from phones and laptops. Both can be connected to DSLRs, enabling live mixing of recorded performances.

Maono has introduced the P1 and P2 hybrid audio interfaces capable of capturing audio at up to 24-bit, 192 kHz from microphones and musical instruments, allowing creators and podcasters to stream live from their computers and smartphones using a USB-C cable. Both can also output mixed analog audio to cameras during live recordings using an audio cable.

The P1 is designed for solo podcasters and performers. It is equipped with a mic/line XLR input jack and a 1/4-inch instrument input jack. Both have independent gain dials with mute. The XLR input can provide phantom power (+48V) and up to 70 dB of audio gain to microphones that require external power. A low -130.6 dB EIN noise floor helps reduce the need to filter recordings for noise in post-production.

Mixed audio can be monitored using headphones connected to the 3.5 mm headphone jack or monitors connected to the 1/4-inch stereo speaker jacks. Both have independent volume dials with mute.

The Maono P2 audio interface comes with two XLR/Mic jacks.

Both P series audio interfaces come with ProStudio software, which adds additional mixing, sound effects, and audio routing features along with DAW (digital audio workstation) / ASIO compatibility.

The Maono P1 has an MSRP of $129.99 (available from the Maono website or Amazon), while the P2 has an MSRP of $119.99 (available from the Maono website or Amazon). A 10% Amazon discount code MAONOP110 can be used from June 15, 1:00 AM PDT until June 21, 2026, 11:59 PM PDT.
