Steinberg UR816C USB 3 Audio Interface
Product no: 9000-0055-8207 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The rack-mountable UR816C USB 3 audio interface serves up eight analogue inputs and outputs that live alongside ADAT i/o and MIDI i/o! Since this is a Steinberg conception, it's also capable of 32-bit/192 kHz audio resolution for unbelievable definition and dynamics. If the eight ins and outs don't quite do it for you, the UR816C can be expanded by a further 16 channels via the ADAT inputs and outputs. Effects are fully processed by the built-in DSP chip, leaving your computer plenty of breathing room for other operations, while the Work Clock input and output offer reliable connection to other outboard units. With a housing worthy of a tank, the UR816C is robust enough for tours and sessions on location.

Steinberg UR816C USB 3 Audio Interface
Wrote the following about Steinberg UR816C USB 3 Audio Interface
Qua klank en mogelijkheden een dikke voldoende. Verwacht geen wonderen, maar de prijs / kwaliteit is okee. Ook de effecten zijn heel bruikbaar. Maar........
Hij past niet ondermeer in een 19" rack. Je zou zeggen dit is een standaard maat, maar de UR-816C is vrij breed en door de (te dikke) rackoortjes blijft hij op de rails hangen. Zonder kunst en vliegwerk en een slijpschijf krijg 'm niet in mijn 19" rack gemonteerd (van een StudioDesk meubel). Alle apparatuur past normaal gesproken perfect alleen zijn de Rack-oortjes van de UR-816C te dik.
Deze interface wordt gemaakt bij Yamaha.
Shame on you Yamaha........ Ik neem aan dat ze daar meer 19" apparatuur bouwen....????

Na een week van problemen met 3 leveringspogingen toch eindelijk gekregen, dus zeker niet "dag erna in huis".
Enfin, de interface op Windows 10 funktioneert goed verder, installeren ging makkelijk, echter de handleiding is erg vaag op diverse gebieden. Support kun je wel vergeten van Steinberg, je moet op forumhulp hopen.
Ik heb er meteen een extra ADAT extension bijgekocht maar om die outputs toe te kunnen wijzen aan kanalen in je DAW was niet echt duidelijk.
Ook de USB kabel bijgeleverd is wel erg kort en helaas geen USB C naar USB C. Die moet je zelf nog aanschaffen.
Het geluid voldoet prima, de connectors voelen helaas niet zo heel degelijk, met name de hoofdtelefoonjacks zijn héél gammel.
Benieuwd hoe lang dit goed gaat.
De DSP onboard effecten zijn een bruikbare aanvulling bij opnemen.

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.

Thursday 21 January 2016

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.
