4x4 High Resolution Versatile USB Audio Interface

01-INT-USB-004

Record or livestream songs, podcasts, and commentary in high resolution to your Mac/Windows computer or iOS mobile device with the TASCAM US-4X4HR : 4 IN / 4 OUT AUDIO INTERFACE, a desktop 4x4 USB Type-C audio/MIDI interface designed to deliver comfortable, user-friendly operation, clean audio quality, and simultaneous input of four mics for home recordists and content creators. The inclusion of MIDI ports gives producers an easy way to integrate MIDI gear into their music production setups. With its four Ultra-HDDA mic preamps, two line / Hi-Z inputs, and two line inputs, the US-4x4HR allows you to track or overdub four different sources at the same time. Phantom power is onboard for condenser mics and LED signal/peak indicators are provided to help you properly set levels. The four balanced 1/4" line outs and dual 1/4" headphone outputs enable monitoring through multiple speakers, headphones, or both. Additional feature enhancements include virtual loopback for podcasting and livestreaming, zero-latency adjustable direct monitoring, and an empowering software bundle.
