This 2-input, 2-output USB audio MIDI interface is targeted specifically at music production professionals, especially beginners, and focuses on ease of use and understanding, allowing you to record high-quality audio immediately.

The microphone preamps, which are crucial for sound quality, feature Ultra-HDDA preamps boasting an EIN rating of -125dBu. Designed for ease of connection with condenser microphones as well as dynamic microphones, the interface can be used for a wide range of applications, from vocal recording to stereo recording of piano and acoustic guitar. The eye-catching, cutting-edge design was created by a German designer who has worked on many well-known music production devices. The slightly angled design provides stress-free desktop recording.
