Overview

A great cornerstone in your personal studio and a perfect field unit for traveling engineers. Unique onboard compression!

The Edirol UA-25 USB Bus Powered Stereo Audio Interface is easy to set up. It's a powerful USB Audio/MIDI interface designed to offer premium sound quality, rugged durability, and complete portability to the computer-based audio engineer. Compact enough to travel anywhere you can take your computer. High-grade aluminum chassis withstands hard knocks in the field and shields against high-frequency interference.

USB powered but provides 48V phantom power for condenser mics. Outputs audio at +4dBu from the balanced 1/4" outputs. Realtime direct monitoring. You can turn direct monitoring on or off, adjust the relative volume of the input signal compared to the audio playing out from your computer, and even set the signal to monitor in mono. This lets you plug a mic into the left input and hear it in both headphones or hear any phasing issues between inputs.

Built-in mild analog compressor protects against clipping and gives a little more latitude in field recording situations. 24-bit/96kHz audio performance, MIDI I/O, S/PDIF optical I/O, and Neutrik XLR/TRS inputs with high-grade microphone preamps. Super-stable drivers. ASIO2.0, WDM, MME, and CoreAudio support for both Mac & PC.

Reroute outgoing audio signals back to the input without crossing into the analog domain so you can record streaming audio directly.
