Audient Audio Interface iD4 MKII, Class A Console Microphone Preamp (High Speed USB-C, Monitor Mix and Monitor Panning Function, 2 Headphone Outputs, Mac/PC/iOS Compatible), Black

This audio interface is brilliant and I see why everyone speaks highly of it. Build quality Its built using metal which is already a huge bonus and really gives this thing some durability. It looks and feels high quality so I can't complain Set Up Set up was a breeze. Very easy, just plug it in and download the software from their website Audio Quality Audio quality is phenomenal. Handles my microphone brilliantly and sounds great when I'm producing music. Interface software and freebies The software for the Interface is clear to use. Very easy and straightforward. Now here's where it really stands out, this audio interface comes packed with free software for music production, you get cubase LE and a fair few VST instruments which is really good for people who are on a budget. Overall Just buy it. It's absolutely wonderful and I can't fault it. Not to mention having the XLR port on the back is an absolute god send.

It arrived late but it's a great product. It's my first ever amp but I can tell that it was well built. Its fun to play with the wheel and everything. Maybe buying the one with 2 slots could be a better option. I didnt know I needed it this much that's why I got the singular one. You do need to download the drivers, not plug and play. But after all it does it's job and does it with style!

Upgraded from Behringer 404HD. What a piece of gear! Many Youtube proper reviews/tests indicating that this is top shelf device. I must agree! Plus I got it 2nd hand (Amazon`s return) for £91 ;)

Now normally I don't write reviews, and whilst I like to think I'm quite knowledgeable when it comes to computers i'm absolutely no expert when it comes to audio. For many years I would just plug my audio equipment directly into the PC's motherboard, no sound card, until I started experimenting with small USB DAC's that would plug into the back... good yeah, but nothing extraordinary. Now a few years ago I decided I needed a bit more of a serious setup to record audio and such for my job, I needed a somewhat half decent microphone, this means I purchased an XLR microphone with of course no way to connect to my PC, so I invested in an audio interface as well as some IEM's. Believing I could get away with a half decent one at a cheap price I invested in the Behringer UMC-22 and have been using that for many years now, it certainly sounded a bit better than directly connecting to my PC... and so I spent many years blissfully unaware that in actual fact the UMC-22 whilst decent, was holding me back, and I wouldn't have known this had I not run into a recent problem where the driver for this AI was starting to make my computer get the BSOD whenever i'd load games with Easy Anti Cheat on them (don't ask, it's silly) SO I figured, why not just invest in a new and upgraded AI that hopefully won't make my computer crash. I only needed something small for headphones and my XLR microphone and after readding many reviews online as well as liking the clean aesthetic I went for this Audient iD4 MKII.... When I tell you not only does it look beautiful but my entire world changed when I experienced the difference in sound quality for the first time. I could not believe it, I was hearing sounds and instruments id never heard on a song before, detail was sharper, crisper, cleaner. Now again granted i'm no expert, and yeah i'm sure if I spent another 500 quid on a more expensive one the sound quality would go up again, but for a difference in 100 quid between the Audient iD4 and the Behringer UMC22 I genuinely could not believe it. Please, if you are hesitant and you think "ah its not worth it to spend a little extra money", it really really is worth it, trust me on this, as someone who was in the dark for many many years, who has now seen the light, this thing will change the life of your ears, they will thank you. - Easy plug and play setup - Beautiful streamlined aesthetic - Sound quality off the scale - Simplicity Just 10/10/10/10 I cannot recommend this thing enough seriously.

Noise at top end very well built

For the price this unit is far the best it’s solid and well built easy to use and sounds great. Ok it’s only got one Mic input but for the solo musician it is perfect and gives fantastic results.

After a good while of research and thinking to buying an AI, I finally invested in one after buying some higher quality headphones. These do not disappoint.

No good don’t bother , it doesn’t power headphones properly , it’s because it’s because it draws power from usb c , you won’t get good dynamics out of your headphones , I brought new dac with its own power supply and suddenly my head phones have come alive , I thought I was going deaf with this unit , it’s not good for making music , you will need to use 32 ohm headphones with this unit , the claims are false that it will power most headphones

Me encanta el sonido que tiene, además que su software es muy estable y con baja latencia al grabar. Me encanta esta marca.

比較的安価で、初心者でも導入しやすいオーディオインターフェースです。また録音の音質は試していませんが、再生音質に関しては驚くべきものがあります。近年のオーディオ用DACは中国メーカー製が多いと思いますが、それらと比較しても周波数特性(高音域〜低音域のフラットな出音)が秀れています。PCやスマホにUSB接続する用途でDACの導入を考えている場合、10万円以下の民生用DACよりもAudient ID4 mkIIの方が高音質かもしれません。とくに、CS43198チップの音が好きな方にはお薦めします。

Reviewing after using few months. Output is most satisfied in build pre-amps is just awesome. Stand best in every aspects on my requirements.

Ich war vorher im Besitz eines Scarlett 4i4 für das Ansteuern meiner beiden XLR Lautsprecher. Dieser ist mir aber nach einem Jahr einfach abgeraucht. Als ich den Audient gekauft habe war ich mir zunächst unsicher, ich kannte weder die Marke noch jemanden der das Gerät besessen hat. Die positiven Bewertungen haben mich aber zum Kauf geführt, und da wollte ich jetzt auch zu beitragen ;) Das Gerät bietet alles was der Scarlett 4i4 auch kann, außer das man nur ein MIC gleichzeitig anschließen kann ( 2 brauch ich aber auch nicht), es ist Wesentlich intuitiver, z.B. dass man zum "schnell" leise machen das Lautstärke Rad eindrücken kann. Die Aussteuerung wird meines Erachtens wesentlich besser angezeigt als bei vergleichbaren Geräten, und das auf dem Gerät selber und nicht nur in der Software. Außerdem hat es SOWOHL einen 3,5mm wie einen 6,35mm Klinken Anschluss für Kopfhörer die auch noch beide gleichzeitig funktionieren. Das habe ich tatsächlich schon sehr oft gebraucht in meinem Job als VideoCutter. Alles in allem läuft das Gerät stabil, wirkt auf mich äußerlich schick und hochwertig ( was mir aber anders auch egal wäre, es soll seinen zweck erfüllen) Einziges Manko ist, dass es sich nach Ausschalten des Computers " resettet" heißt eigentlich nur : Die Lautstärke nicht speichert. Da das Lautstärkerad sich unendlich drehen lässt und keinen Anfang- und Endpunkt hat weiß das Gerät natürlich nicht wo die letzte Lautstärke war und fängt dann bei Null an, gewöhnt man sich aber dran. Ganz Klare Kaufempfehlung.

I'm using this card for mobile music production work. Sound is amazing, I don't think I would look for something else. It has better drivers and sound compared to Focusrite, sorry I had FR for 7 years, it was good in general, but now drivers suck big time. It was freezing all the time for no reason. Audeint is very good, clear and open sound, good punch. Update: after 4 months I had 2 cases when level jumped to full and almost broke my monitors and my ears. This is not acceptable! The rotary encoder has no more trust. Will change to another card.
