U-Phoria UMC202HD : Home studio for begginers that will do the trick for a certain period

4 years ago

I started recording guitar at home and I needed a relatively inexpensive audio interface with 2 channels that records in 24 bit. It is well built, with metallic housing and good and firm plastic parts. It is powered by USB cable when connected with computer. Both chanells (mic and instrument) have gain controls with clipping indicators. It also has real direct monitoring and phantom power for condenser mics. In all, it has everything you need to record guitar&bass or guitar&voice or any other combo except MIDI. I record my guitar with dinamic mic in front of the amp and it's almost studio quality. One drawback is that it doesn't have any software or even a driver ready - you have to dowload the driver from Behringer home page, and after driver installation you edit the settings in your DAW (I use Audacity and I started recording successfully only after I watched 2 videos on Youtube).
