Super interface audio pour enregistrer des microphones
FanOfClash 05.01.2022
Agréable à utiliser, peu encombrante, avec une belle qualité sonore, et un compresseur embarqué qui sonne bien, globalement, c'est une super interface.

Utilisée dans Logic Pro, le son est propre, le compresseur facile à enclencher, et j'adore la présence de boutons physiques pour tout régler, du compresseur au switch mono ou aux sources diffusée dans le casque.

Ce que j'aime le plus :
- retours visuels sur la coque (vu mètre par entrée et par sortie),
- 4 potards vintage, 12 boutons poussoir rétro-éclairés,
- la simplicité des pré-réglages du compresseur 76,
- la présence de l'interrupteur sur la face arrière.

Ce que j'aime le moins : l'absence de description des 3 pré-réglages du compresseur 476 (VOC = Vocal / GTR = Guitare, FAST =rapide).
Le manuel s'abstient de décrire techniquement le compresseur.
Sur le site web d'UA, j'ai trouvé que :
Ratio de compression = 6:1
VOC = Attaque à 2ms / retour (release) à 300ms
GTR = attaque à 1.5ms / retour à à 700ms
FAST = attaque à 30 microsecondes = 0,03ms / retour à 35ms
mais je n'ai pas trouvé le seuil (threshold) de déclenchement.

Le réglage Vintage est encore moins décrit : c'est un son type préampli à tube type UA 610....
Pour les gens comme moi qui n'ont jamais entendu ce préampli UA 610 comme moi, cette explication, c'est du flou.
L'interface audio est abordable, mais à ce prix on peut vouloir des données techniques, donc "le son du préampli à tube l'UA 610", c'est un peu court.

En dehors de cet agacement sur cette absence d'information technique, c'est quand même une très bonne interface, très agréable à utiliser, à la fois par la qualité sonore, par les contrôles sur la coque, par le fait que ça ne sature jamais.

A cool little device
Anton Kuznetsov 01.02.2022
Bought it as an audio-interface specifically for live shows.
It has 4 in/out ports, is small, fairly light, quite comfortable to carry around, and has that sleek UA design to it.
Functions and routing are easy to understand due to coloured lights in buttons - be advised however that it has no routing app, and all I/O changes must be done via the device itself (by pressing corresponding buttons). I had no problems with this fact, but some may find this troublesome.

Built-in vintage compressor and amp presets are also a cool feature.
Would recommend.

Almost perfect!
JuanTune_in 09.03.2022
First of all I love this interface! Beautiful pre amps, amazing sound, easy to use. Just great. But the only issue I had was that there were minor scratches and one of them chipped the paint on one of the letters so it was kinda of annoying because I bought it new.
