ART USB IV 4-Channel Audio Interface with USB Connectivity
ART USB IV 4-Channel Audio Interface with USB Connectivity
"there can be no argument that this interface dominates price to performance in its class"
With four input channels and class-leading 32-bit, 192 kHz conversion, the USB IV is ARTs most advanced digital audio interface.
It has two mic / instrument and two mic / line inputs, all with combo jacks that can accept XLR and 1/4" connections. Indicator rings around the input gain controls turn green to indicate optimum signal levels, and red to indicate peaking. The interface also features switchable phantom power, balanced 1/4" outputs, a dedicated headphone jack, and full-sized MIDI in and out connectors.
The USB IV is bus-powered, class compliant, and bundled with Cubase LE recording software from Steinberg. It offers extended connectivity and superior fidelity for home and project studios, and its compact size and rugged enclosure make it a convenient tool for mobile recording.
