Guitar USB Audio Interface

Ideal Interface for Mobile or Desktop Recording

Embrace the high-speed power and flexibility of USB 3.0 connectivity with the Zoom UAC-2 audio interface. This highly portable, low-latency recording interface combines microphone preamps, direct instrument inputs, and line-level support with onboard MIDI I/O to give you a wide range of workflow options. Top-notch analog circuitry and quality converters deliver exceptional sound, and a dedicated software mix environment provides you with simple control over your settings plus onboard reverb and delay effects for studio-grade results. The Zoom UAC-2 is a value-packed recording solution for desktop or mobile recording. Sounds great, easy to use The Zoom UAC-2 interface is simple to use, and we have been impressed by the high sound quality. A pair of XLR/TRS combo jacks let you hook up mics, instruments, or line signals in seconds. A convenient pair of TRS jacks in the back let you hook up your powered monitors in a flash. Best of all, the UAC-2 uses high-end Burr Brown converters for stellar sound. MixEfx software mixer makes signal management easy All parameters of the Zoom UAC-2 are controllable via the MixEfx software application, making it easy to manage your session right from your computer. You can add effects like reverb or echo to offer vocalists a better monitoring experience. You'll also be able to enable a loopback mode that lets you blend the input signals with playback from a computer source, especially useful for live internet streaming. High-end processing delivers better sound The UAC-2 not only records, but it also performs four times upsampling of your signal during the analog-to-digital and the digital-to-analog conversion. So, when the sampling rate is set to 44.1kHz, the UAC-2 is processing the signal at 176.4kHz, which helps minimize aliasing noise and increases clarity. In other words, your audio will sound amazing.

Pocket-sized Mobile Recording Hero

Whether you're in the studio or out with your iPad, Zoom's U-44 Handy Audio Interface makes it easy to record and monitor up to four channels at a time. Microphones, line-level sources, guitars, you name it - the U-44 has the connections you need. What's more, you can connect Zoom Capsules to your U-44, adding microphones and additional preamps instantly. There's even digital S/PDIF and MIDI onboard. The preamps are the same ones found in the popular H6 Handy Recorder, and the 24-bit/96kHz digital converters are the clearest and cleanest ones Zoom has produced. Between its extensive I/O and mobile-ready design, the U-44 is an ideal on-the-go USB audio interface.

Pocket-sized recording interface that's ready to travel Few audio interfaces compare with Zoom's U-44 when it comes to sheer portability. With the U-44, USB bus power is only the beginning. For one thing, it can run on a pair of AA batteries when bus power isn't available, making it an excellent audio interface to keep with your iPad (Camera Connection Kit required). And since the U-44 is so compact, you can comfortably carry it in your jacket pocket and be ready to record whenever and wherever inspiration strikes. All the connections you need, plus Zoom Capsule input Despite its diminutive size, the U-44 certainly manages to pack in the I/O. A pair of TRL/XLR combo jacks serve as your main analog inputs, accommodating line-level sources and microphones - even supplying phantom power to condenser mics. What's more, there's a DI input so you can plug in your guitar. There's also coax and optical S/PDIF for digital sources and MIDI I/O for your keyboards. On top of that, you can hook up any of Zoom's Capsule modules to add extra inputs or a microphone right to your audio interface. Loaded with Zoom's top-quality preamps and conversion For years, Zoom has been a leader in the world of portable preamps and digital conversion, with products such as the H4N, F8, and H6 breaking new ground in affordable mobile recording quality. Onboard the U-44, you'll find the same ones from the H6 that our customers and field recording pros love, so you know you'll get clean and clear sound. Likewise, a set of 24-bit/96kHz onboard converters delivers reliable digital audio, making it easy to record studio-ready tracks out in the field.
