It suits songwriters and creators recording voice and guitar together. At Soundium it is the entry point to the Volt range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTone Shaping Preamp:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three switchable characters per channel: Warmth (tube, 610-inspired), Focus (American solid state) and Shine (British Class-A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e32-bit \/ 192 kHz Conversion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 119 dB dynamic range on the mic inputs, so quiet details and loud peaks both land intact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoice and Guitar at Once:\u003c\/strong\u003e XLR\/TRS combo mic\/line input plus a front-panel Hi-Z instrument input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e48V Phantom Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e Run a studio condenser mic straight from the bus-powered unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-In Loopback:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blend mics with computer audio for podcasts, livestreams and video calls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBus Powered:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.4 W typical draw, no power supply needed for computer recording\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCustomer Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou get a character choice before the signal ever reaches the DAW, which is where cheap interfaces usually sound thin.
