Meet ORIA, the world's first audio interface and monitor controller designed specifically with immersive audio in mind. Built for creating immersive audio mixes for formats such as Dolby Atmos, ORIA lets you calibrate, control and monitor multi-channel speaker arrays from stereo up to 9.1.6 and everything in between. Perfect for music, film, TV, game and VR production.
A perfect fit
Designed with a dual purpose, ORIA not only excels as a powerful USB-C audio interface providing 16 outputs for up to 9.1.6 mixing workflows, but can also effortlessly integrate into your existing studio setup as a standalone monitor controller via its ADAT Inputs. Flexibility where you need it.
Advanced Speaker Processing
Working with multi-channel speaker setups requires a precisely calibrated room but let's face it, calibrating your room is a difficult and time consuming process.
All present & correct
ORIA's Advanced Speaker Processing lets you calibrate your room and create custom onboard calibration Profiles (presets) for any monitoring format from stereo to surround to 9.1.6 immersive setups, making reference checking your mix in different formats a breeze.
Trim
Adjust the level of every speaker individually to ensure a balanced soundfield.
Speaker Delay
Make sure audio from every speaker arrives at the mix position precisely at the same time.
Bass Management
Accurately hear ALL of the bass and low end frequencies in your mix with ORIA's bass management controls, featuring a per channel configurable crossover filter.
8 Band EQ
Deal with unwanted acoustic issues and colouration to ensure a flat and consistent translation of your audio.
All the information you need, in one place
Easy to navigate, easy to control. ORIA gives you powerful new ways to truly take control of any stereo, surround or immersive environment courtesy of its beautifully simple software.
Fast Profile Recall
Use Profiles to quickly switch between speakers, listening levels and target curves. Imagine instantly switching from your perfectly calibrated stereo nearfield speakers to a 9.1.6 immersive setup with Dolby X-Curve. Now, you can with a touch of a button.
Speaker Control
Fly around your session at high speeds with true immersive monitor control. Featuring colour coded speaker groups, individual & group speaker mute/solo, global Volume Control, Cut & Dim and a Global Delay (Lip-sync) for post production workflows.
Metering
Keep an eye on your metering from multiple locations including ORIA's front panel LCD screen, desktop software or iPad remote. Still need more detail? Expand ORIA's desktop metering via an independent window, unlocking additional visual feedback.
Dolby Atmos Support
ORIA integrates with the Dolby Renderer, letting you take control of the down mix functionality directly from ORIA's user interface. Ideal for quickly checking your mix in different monitoring layouts, such as 7.1, 5.1, stereo and more.
Go remote
Never miss a beat with ORIA's iPad Control App. The power of touch grants you remote access to all of ORIA's control features from one centralised control hub. Adjust levels, audition speakers, switch profiles and monitor your metering - all directly from your desktop. Precise control without the complexity.
Make that connection
With a huge array of connectivity options, ORIA provides more than enough I/O to take on professional multi channel setups. Plug in your surround speakers via the line or AES outputs. Connect your nearfield speakers to the dedicated Stereo Outputs. And easily integrate an external interface or preamp using the ADAT inputs.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
