Purchased this as a portable interface to have around the house away from my destlk when making music on my laptop. Very happy with the quality of the sound and the XENYX preamp. Nice bit of kit I now prefer it to my main pcs alesis multimix 4... And it also has better quality sound than the alesis.

Very easy to set up. Works straight out of the box and does exactly what it says with no unpleasant surprises. I was worried about the plastic case but it's actually quite well made.



Mic preamp is very transparent with no added colouration. The clip indicator light helps in adjusting the gain.



The headphone amp is surprisingly good quality. It's up there with actual entry level HiFi headphone amps from FiiO etc. The measurements from Julian Krause on Youtube seem to back this up.



One downside is that the direct monitoring level cannot be adjusted - it's either on or off. Another thing to note is that there's only 1 volume knob that controls both the headphone and pre-out at the same time, which may or may not be desirable.



In summary I can't believe they can sell it at such a low price - it's even cheaper than buying a similar product from China.

The Behringer UM2 is a great bit of kit for the price. Simple to use and works perfectly.

It's a very good tool for people interested in a small home-studio that don't really want to spend a lot but pursue quality. Behringer also gives you the Tracktion DAW licence so if you're into creating your own music this is an amazing deal. I can recommend this UM2, the drivers work fine (ASIO). I have latency but it's very low and it really depends on many settings. You can monitor with no latency so it'll do.

Ik vind deze interface prima voor beginnende producers/vocalisten/studio's/whatever, het enige waar ik me als producer (die ook vocalen of instrumenten op neemt), enorm aan stoor, is aan de ruis. Er zit best wel veel ruis in, al vanaf begin af aan. Minpunt! Voor de rest werkt het prima, knoppen kraken na een verloop van tijd wel.

Ik heb deze interface gekocht in een studiobundel en wat hij werkt fantastisch! Ik neem vocals op maar je kan ook instrumenten aansluiten. Voor 6 tientjes vind ik dit de beste interface. Geweldig.

NAMM 2016: IK Multimedia's iKlip A/V - Top Sound Quality on Your Smartphone

Thursday 7 January 2016 By Richard | Bax Music

These days, films can be recorded entirely on smartphones, and some YouTubers are more famous than television presenters. The gap between professionals and amateurs is becoming smaller. Cameras on today's smartphones offer excellent image quality that is getting harder and harder to distinguish from 'the real thing'. Sound quality on smartphones, on the other hand, is an area that is still in need of some improvement. That's where the iKlip A/V from IK Multimedia comes in. It's a broadcast mount with an integrated microphone preamp that will add professional-quality sound to your smartphone footage.

The Studio 192 is an impressively elaborate audio interface, but it's a bit too big for most mobile applications. That's why, at NAMM 2016, Presonus is introducing the Studio 192 Mobile.
