Introducing the Universal Audio Volt 176 USB Audio Interface - a compact and pristine 1-in/2-out interface that serves as the perfect starting point or upgrade for your music production journey. With its best-in-class audio fidelity achieved through 24-bit processing and 192kHz sampling frequency, the Volt 176 USB ensures that every aspect of your performance is captured with exceptional detail. Notably, it features an integrated analogue 1176-style compressor circuit at the input stage, adding punch and weight to your tracks before they are recorded into your DAW. This smart feature reduces the CPU load on your computer and enhances the overall efficiency of your music production.
The Volt 176 USB stands as the ultimate portable interface for vocal recordings. It includes a Vintage Mic Preamp mode, derived from the vintage UA 610 tube preamplifier, which gently sculpts and enhances your vocal tone with warmth and subtle saturation, preparing you for professional-quality recordings right from the start.
In addition, the Volt 176 USB comes equipped with a thoughtfully curated selection of software packages that ignite creativity. Unlike other interfaces with a surplus of software and little direction, the Universal Audio Volt 176 provides all the necessary tools to create professional music at any time. It includes Ableton Live Lite DAW, various virtual instruments like UJAM's Virtual Drummer and Virtual Bassist, modelling amplifiers for electric guitar and bass from Softube, a plethora of world-class plugins from Relab, and much more.
If you're constantly producing on the go, the Volt 176 USB has got you covered. Powered by USB, it's incredibly portable, enabling you to create professional-sounding music wherever inspiration strikes. Moreover, it seamlessly adapts and thrives with its compatibility across Mac, Windows, and iOS devices, ensuring smooth integration with your preferred music production system.
