Audient ID22 High-Performance AD/DA USB Audio Interface & Monitoring System

Manufacturer’s Description

10in | 14out audio interface
Designed for those looking to take the next step up in home recording, the iD22 delivers professional audio performance of an Audient console in a compact and modern desktop package.

The professional sound you deserve
Every iD interface features the Audient Console Mic Preamp, the same discrete circuit design found in our renowned recording console the ASP8024-HE. Designed to deliver ultra- low noise and low distortion with a touch of classic analogue warmth, iD22’s two Audient Console mic pre’s will give you the professional sound you deserve.

How does it sound?
The Audient mic pre is a high grade hybrid discrete and op amp design that delivers a clean, accurate and detailed translation of your source.

Now that’s quiet
With a noise floor 30,000 times quieter than the signal level your recordings will be captured with stunning clarity.

It’s all in the details
Offering an incredible 120dB of dynamic range, iD22’s class leading converters make sure you hear every nuance, every detail of your audio by providing stunning sonic clarity directly from your desktop.

JFET Instrument Input – Plug and Play
Designed to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier, iD22’s harmonically rich JFET Instrument Input is the perfect sonic foundation for your guitar or bass.

Expand via ADAT – More Channels, More Possibilities
More than just a two in, four out interface, iD22’s digital inputs + outputs give you the option to add up to eight extra mic pre inputs letting you expand your rig and take on larger sessions.

Balanced Inserts – Hardware Integration
Integrate your favourite outboard FX prior to conversion and start creating signal chains that rival the very best. The insert returns also gives you direct access to the A/D converters providing the cleanest signal path possible, making it great for print-backs or integrating outboard line level sources.

Software Mixer – Experience Ultra-Low Latency
The iD mixer tightly integrates hardware and software, letting you effortlessly create and customise low latency headphone mixes, utilise the flexible monitor control or simply keep an eye on your levels – all from one easy to use app.

Talkback – Innovation Meets Communication
iD22’s dedicated talkback technology enables you to use any audio source connected to your computer such as a built in or USB microphone as your talkback mic, freeing up valuable mic pres for recording.

Advanced Monitor Control – Work Faster
Speed up your workflow with iD22’s three programmable function buttons. Assign any of the advanced monitoring features, including Speaker Select, Mono Sum, Talkback or Cue Mix monitoring, to any of the F-buttons and experience customisable hardware control at your fingertips.

Speaker + Headphone Outputs – Be Immersed
Plug in and listen to your mixes through two sets of speakers with iD22’s 4 line outputs or work via headphones using the independent headphone amp.

USB2.0 – Make a Connection
iD22 comes with USB A to A cable and lets you connect to any USB compatible Mac or PC supporting USB 2.0 or above.

All Metal Construction – Built to Last
With its all-metal construction, hand finished aluminium knobs and high grade component selection, iD22 delivers professional quality audio in a beautifully engineered and all-metal package.

Create Instantly
Bundled with a free suite of creative software, alongside industry leading plugins and virtual instruments, you can start recording as soon as you open the box.
