Audient Console Mic Preamp
A discrete Class-A microphone preamp based on Audient's flagship ASP8024-HE console design delivers clean, detailed recordings with plenty of gain for demanding microphones.

JFET Instrument Input
Connect a guitar or bass directly through a dedicated JFET input designed to deliver an authentic analogue amp-style response.

Simultaneous Microphone and Instrument Recording
Record a microphone and instrument together, making the interface ideal for capturing vocals and guitar in a single performance.

Analogue Tone Suite
Shape recordings at the source using four tonal tools: HMX for warmth, LIFT for high-frequency sheen, GLOW for combined saturation and clarity, and ORBIT for microphone character.

ORBIT Variable Impedance Control
Change how a connected microphone interacts with the preamp using Punch, Smooth and Vintage voicings.

Smartgain Automatic Gain Setting
Automatically establish optimized recording levels by performing into the connected input, reducing the need for manual adjustments.

RoomTune™ Monitor Correction
Correct the acoustic response of connected studio monitors using onboard DSP, providing system-wide calibration without plugins or additional CPU load. Requires the separately available RM1™ Reference Microphone.

Hardware-Accelerated DSP Effects
Access onboard EQ, compression and reverb processing for zero-latency effects without relying on your computer's CPU.

32-Bit Audio Conversion
Capture and reproduce audio through high-performance conversion designed to preserve detail and dynamic range throughout the recording process.

Hardware Direct Monitoring
Monitor incoming audio with near-zero latency and adjust the balance between live inputs and DAW playback directly from the interface.

Dual Headphone Outputs
Connect headphones using either 6.3 mm or 3.5 mm connections, with both outputs available simultaneously for shared listening.

Stereo Monitor Connectivity
Connect a pair of studio monitors through dedicated rear-panel outputs, with convenient volume and mute controls.

Intuitive Desktop Controls
A sloped top panel, stepped control encoder, illuminated buttons and LED output meters provide convenient access to essential recording and monitoring functions.

iD Control Software
Access the software mixer, monitoring profiles and interface settings through Audient's control application for Mac and Windows.

USB-C Bus Power
Operate the interface through a single USB-C connection without requiring an external power supply.
