Description
The UA-25 is one of the top selling USB-1 audio interfaces ever. This powerful USB audio and MIDI interface designed to offer premium sound quality, rugged durability, and complete portability to the computer-based audio engineer. The UA-25 is compact enough to travel anywhere you can take your computer. It is designed using high-grade aluminium for the chassis, which offers two benefits: 1) The UA-25 can withstand hard impacts that are normally associated with travelling or working in the field, and 2) The aluminium is an excellent shield against high-frequency interference from other electrical components. The UA-25 is USB powered, so you never have to plug it into a wall socket, but you can still power condenser microphones with 48V phantom power. The seasoned audio professional will love the UA-25 for its ability to output audio at +4dBu from the balanced 1/4" outputs, making it the best portable audio interface to pack between the field and the studio.
One of the best reasons for considering the UA-25 the best audio interface to use in the field is the inclusion of an analogue compressor built into the interface. This gives you a little more discrepancy when setting mic levels, with less chance of clipping. If your first take is your only chance, you DON"T want to get caught without this feature and the UA-25 is the only USB-powered stereo audio interface in the market that offers it. Add in 24-bit/96kHz audio performance, MIDI I/O, S/P DIF Optical I/O, and Neutrik XLR/TRS inputs with high-grade microphone preamps, and the UA-25 is everything you need to get superb audio to and from your computer.
