Behringer U-Control UCA202

Good quality and great prise.

Just as low noise as advertised, there weren't much noise from this little fella. Works perfectly for my project.

Non-linear volume curve

The sound quality is excellent and it just works out-of-the-box. The only problem I have with it is that at least with the standard Windows driver, the percieved volume is at maybe 80% at 20. Volume levels 21-100 will adjust the last 20% of the percieved volume.

Basic but works fine within limitations

If all you need is a basic audio interface for your computer, then this does the job fine for line-level signals as long as you take the time to understand the basics of getting the inout levels correct. Not for use directly with most microphones, but fine from a small mixer or even some guitar pedals, if they output enough level. Good enough at the price but don't expect miracles!

Auido Interface!

One of good audio interfaces for everything!!!!

Not able to record line in input with ASIO4All windows 10

Not able to record line in input with ASIO4ALL driver with windows 10.

If inputs enabled I hear a very high frequency noise.

Now I bought a Steinberg UR22C. output Latency is reduced from 27 ms to 15 ms

Solid inexpensive Audio Interface

I bought this to have a small interface while streaming with a DJ controller onto OBS.

Simple and easy to use, but not many options as far as connection types, no xlr.

Does what it should, but doesn't have anything fancy.

Sound quality is fine for streaming and online video. Would not use this for a high quality audio mix.

Price is definitely good.

It's a no brainer for the price and easy to use.

Quality on a budget

This is a very capable little gadget, considering the cheap price point. The DAC chip inside perfoms quite admirably.

One thing to note, however, is that Behringer has started using a different DAC chip since I bought mine. The current revisions of UCA202 are using a cheaper off-brand component which doesn't perform as well as the original one.

So if the quality of the DA conversion is important to you, you might want to look elsewhere. Previously this was known as the king of budget DA conversion, but these days it's no longer true.

nice toy

low jitter -sound is quite decent

Incredible price/performance.

I always have a spare UCA202 with me.

I use this as main output when DJing with a MIDI-controller, or when playing background tunes from a computer without a good soundcard.

Pros:

Soundquality is great. I see no reason to buy another DAC. No noticeable coloration if your electrical environment is clean.

Headphone amp is surprisingly good, probably serviceable for < 100 ohm headphones. But get a "main" headphone amp if you're serious.

Cons:

- USB isolation is not very good, and ground hum from other devices connected to your computer often sneaks through. This is solved by properly grounding your equipment, or probably by applying a DI-box to the output.

- Plastic chassi - be careful.

- No gain adjustment on in or output. I find I get the best sound if I software limit the output to about 90%.

Does the job

Handy to carry around and good enough for most jobs. Will need RCA cables, and works best connected to a small mixer (and some not so simple connection configurations)
