Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 USB Audio Interface

Excellent interface at such a great price. Well built and certainly worth the few pounds extra compared to the U-phoria UM2 which, although it sounds equally good, is less well built. Highly recommended product.

Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 USB Audio Interface

I usually use an iRig to connect my guitar to my computer so as to not wake up the whole house when playing. Which isn't a bit bit of kit for the money. However, I bought this item, with a Devine XLR M-mic package so that I could hear from my computer, and talk/sing while playing guitar... generally with the idea that we would be able to do an online band practice while the Covid-19 virus lockdown is on.

I have to say, I'm so impressed with this. The sound quality is amazing - so much better than the iRig, and it's so easy to set up, small and compact while being of a really good build quality, I cannot fault it. I almost feel like Bax have got the price wrong, and this item should be a £200 upwards. I play bass and guitar, but the real test was the clarity of the bass, which without going through any pedals, with a totally clean input, is beautiful. No fuzz, no background noise, just clean low end. Well worth the money.

Delivery was quick, and price really good. So all in all, I'm really happy with this.

Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 USB Audio Interface

Ordered Christmas Eve and arrived on the 30th - great service for the time of year! The Behringer U-Phoria works great, very happy with it and the price I paid - cheaper than 2nd hand ones on ebay! I downloaded the drivers and was soon recording with it, easy to use just plug and play.

Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 USB Audio Interface

This device is easy to setup and use, and seems solidly built. After connecting the USB cable, on my Windows 10 laptop I only had to ensure the relevant sound device was selected and both stereo input channels enabled in the Windows sound control panel, it was then easy to record using the freely available Audacity application (I tried the Traktion DAW application which Behringer provide a download for, but setup baffled me). I particularly like that there are LEDs to show when the inputs are clipping, so it's really easy to get the input levels set right.

Wow! Behringer has done it again, this is a quality portable recording setup. The ease of use is great as is the Plug and Play, USB powered is a real bonus as no power adaptor is required. The headphone amp output is ample i have only had it up half volume so there is plenty of headroom for monitoring. The 2 in 2 out streams effortless and the latency is almost zero.The Midas Microphone Pre amps are the best in the business and this has them as well as full 48v Phantom power not like other brand units that only have 15v. I am 100% happy with this and recommend it to others who want a quality portable recording experience.

Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 USB Audio Interface

De UMC22 doet precies waarvoor ik hem aangeschaft heb.
Ik sluit mijn Tech 21 PL1 Paul Landers pedaal aan en opnemen maar.
Eerst had ik een probleem met de latency, maar dit was gewoon een instelling mijn DAW.
Zeker een aanrader voor deze prijs.

De u-22beringen
Uitgepakt en aangesloten
Kreeg veel ruis op hoofdtelefoon,naar de drivers gezocht bij beringen op deze site kun je het apparaat selecteren en de software down loaden, daarna asio4all ge download dan naar reaper download ,
Bij opties naar preferenties -device bij selectie asio aanvinken daar onder moet dan beringer staan en opnieuw opstarten,klaar is Jaap het geruis kwam omdat de microfoon te dicht bij laptop stond en alles op pakten.. heb verschillende microfoons geprobeerd voor zang opname de shure blijkt de beste volgens mij. Moet alleen nog zoeken om wat galm op hoofdtelefoon te krijgen bij inzingen 😋 de beringer werk naar behoren .

Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 USB Audio Interface

Ik gebruik dit apparaat met Audacity onder Linux (debian gebaseerd), wordt zonder drivers meteen herkend.
Op zich is het geen slecht apparaat, maar linker en rechter aansluiting gedragen zich als L en R van 1 stereo spoor, dus geen aparte sporen. Ik weet niet zeker of dit aan Linux en Audacity ligt, of aan het apparaat zelf. Het gevolg hiervan is dat als je maar een van beide aansluitingen gebruikt, je opname een stereo track heeft met bijvoorbeeld links je zang en rechts niks.
Als je links zang zou opnemen en rechts een instrument, zit het instrument helemaal rechts in de stereo en de zang helemaal links. Wel kun je in Audacity de stereo track naar mono splitsen, dan krijg je wel twee (dus mono) tracks, probleem dus in zekere zin opgelost.
Let wel op dat als je twee microfoons wilt aansluiten je op rechts een brom kunt verwachten, op links is dit niet het geval, de linker aansluiting is namelijk geoptimaliseerd voor een microfoon, zo lijkt het, en rechts niet, met als gevolg dat je rechts veel harder moet zetten op het apparaat om beide sporen even hard te laten klinken, maar dan krijg je dus wel een brom op rechts. Zoals gezegd, onder Linux met Audacity. Met andere software weet ik niet.

Prima ding voor het geld. Alleen jammer dat er geen aparte volume knop is voor de koptelefoon uitgang.
