General
The Novation Audiohub 2x4 is a 2-in 4-out USB audio interface and USB hub for music production. It features powerful outputs and an equally powerful headphone connector that DJs are sure to love, and thanks to a sample frequency of 96 kHz and 24 bits, the interface guarantees outstanding sound quality. In addition, the Audiohub 2.4 is equipped with a USB hub for connecting a variety of devices, such as controllers and tablets.
Compact setup
If you're a DJ or producer who uses Ableton Live, then you know how much easier everything is when you use controllers for activating scenes and clips. Of course, when you want to use multiple controllers, it's easy to have a shortage of USB ports. Luckily, the Audiohub offers room for three extra USB devices! Imagine you have a setup with a laptop, a Novation Launchpad S and a Novation Launch Control XL. If you simply connect the Audiohub 2.4 to your laptop, you only need one USB port, since you can connect both controllers to the hub. Moreover, you have a quality output for sending your music to a mixing console, and you even get a headphone output that's powerful enough to let you hear what you're doing above all the cacophony in your surroundings.
Made for life on the road
The Novation Audiohub 2x4 is housed in a fully metal chassis. Not only is the brushed aluminium housing attractive, but it offers excellent protection during transport. And that's exactly what the Audiohub is intended for: life in the studio and on the road. The audio technology contained in this magical box is actually by Focusrite, another company that DJs and producers have put their trust in for years. Finally, the two RCA inputs are ultra-low-latency, making them excellent for live applications, and you can easily connect to your computer or iOS device via the USB ports. With this device, you have a solid, compact way to play your loops and equip them with effects.
Tips or comments about this productPlease note:
- The Audiohub 2x4 must be powered by the included adapter in order to function as a USB hub. When used as an audio interface the USB cable is sufficient.

Werkt met bijvoorbeeld i.c.m. ableton live 9. een uitstekende ervaring.
Pluspunten
+ USBHUB
+ Klein maar krachtig
+ Veel audio routing mogelijkheden
+ Krachtig signaal voor de hoofdtelefoon
Minpunten
- Een ingang te weinig (maar dit is een persoonlijke mening)
Op een mac computer kan je meerdere geluidskaarten samen voegen tot 1 grote digitale geluidskaart dus die te weinig ingangen heb ik al weten te regelen zoek naar "Mac Aggregate Device"
Pluspunten:
- mooi degelijk apparaat wat tegen een stootje kan
- volume regelaars met clipping indicators voor de line uitgangen, kunnen heel hard!
- 4 outputs over RCA, kanaal 1 en 2 zijn dubbel uitgevoerd en gebalanceerd beschikbaar
- 3 extra USB2.0 poorten beschikbaar voor het aansluiten van b.v. midi controllers
- de hoofdtelefoon kan 'schadelijk' hard, handig want je komt niet snel volume te kort
- hoofdtelefoon kan schakelen tussen kanaal 1-2 of kanaal 3-4
- hoofdtelefoon kan ook het ingangssignaal monitoren.
- audiokwaliteit is uitstekend, zowel op de in als uitgangen.
Minpunten:
- de 3 extra USB poorten hadden van mij op de achterkant mogen zitten
- de input heeft geen continue variable gain regelaar enkel low and high gain
- je moet voor gegarandeerde geluidskwaliteit eigenlijk altijd de voedingsadapter gebruiken
2 sorties stéréo ( 1/2 en Rca ET jack, 3/4 en jack uniquement ) + sortie casque indépendante ( selection de la piste via un petit switch + gain )
Het is een topper ook natuurlijk omdat hij in samenwerking met Focusrite is gemaakt om de juiste geluids- kwaliteit uit te halen voor " must haves"liefhebbers.
Ideaal als je als dj aan de slag wilt... live en voor opnames is deze super geschikt en het feit dat een usb hub hebt om minstens drie andere midi-,key of drum controller op aan te sluiten ....sterker nog alle controller voor gebruikt in studio of podium kan er op aangesloten worden....let wel op dat je de instructies en handleiding doorneemt ( voor de gierige gebruikers onder ons....en ja ik was daar ook één van hahaha)
Een aanrader voor iedereen die met meerdere controllers tegelijk wilt werken en als je goed heb gekeken naar de setup schema's , dan snap je wat ik bedoel. GENOEG OPTIES DUS.
Geen min punten nadat ik hem na kerst heb gekocht bij baxshop...trouwens @ Baxshop....GA ZO DOOR!!!

Thursday 7 January 2016 By Richard | Bax MusicThese 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.
