Steinberg UR24C USB-3 Audio and MIDI Interface
Product no: 9000-0061-4763 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Steinberg is known to offer outstanding value for money and their UR24C interface is no exception. This USB 3/MIDI audio interface is capable of 32-bit/192 kHz audio sampling and comes with two inputs, four outputs and even iOS support. Steinberg's UR Series interfaces have recently been upgraded with DSP effects, meaning that you can monitor and record without any latency issues and without the effects needlessly burdening the CPU inside your computer. If you're into live-streaming, you're also bound to appreciate the loopback function of the UR24C as it mixes any input signals from microphones, guitars or other sources with audio coming from playback software such as DAWs. This is also ideal for podcasts since it allows you to send the combined signals directly to the internet.

MIDI, Bus Power and Included Software

The UR24C comes with MIDI inputs and outputs so that you can hook up your vintage synths or drum computers directly to the interface and, despite the fact that it's loaded with DSP effects, it's still bus powered; a unique feature that you won't often find on similar audio interfaces. Of course, the UR24C can be plugged into mains power as well, but if you're always on the move, a simple USB-C port will do. The interface also includes quite a bit of software: Cubase AI will have you mixing right away while Cubase LE can be used to record to an iOS device while, to gain full control over all inbound and outbound signals and to monitor latency-free effects with or without a DAW , Steinberg have developed the dspMicFX application. To sweeten the deal, the UR24C comes with a potent plug-in bundle including guitar amplifier simulation software you can use for any music project.

Wrote the following about Steinberg UR24C USB-3 Audio and MIDI Interface

Ik heb de Steinberg UR24C een paar dagen uitgeprobeerd, uitstekend geluid, zowel input als output, de bijgevoegde software, is gemakkelijk te doorgronden en voldoet goed. getest op verschillende DAW programma's , geen probleem alles werkt. en min punt is de bijgeleverde CUBASE upload codes dat die niet werken, op de Steinberg website staan instructies hoe dit op te lossen, het probleem is bekend bij Steinberg, echter voor de CUBASE AI applicatie, wordt een nieuwe code alleen via de verkoper (Bax) geleverd, hier is het wachten nog op, zodat ik de USB3 connectie nog niet heb kunnen testen, USB 2 geeft geen problemen in vertraging (lacenty?) in opname en weergave. uitstekend product.
