Zoom UAC-232 USB 2.0 Audio Interface

Description

It’s Low Latency All the Way with This Zoom Interface

The Zoom UAC-232 USB 2.0 Audio Interface is tailor-made for podcasters, musicians, streamers, and recording artists of all stripes. The UAC-232 builds on the success of the UAC-2 but ups the ante with an incredible 32-bit/192kHz A/D resolution, USB-C 2.0 connectivity, and a more lightweight chassis design. This low-latency recording interface combines microphone preamps equivalent to those in the F6, direct instrument inputs, and line-level support with onboard MIDI I/O to give you a wide range of workflow options. Whatever you need to record, the Zoom UAC-232 has you covered. Plus, each input stands ready with a +48V phantom power switch available for condenser mics. Lastly, users can activate the hi-Z by clicking the Guitar/Bass button to record directly.

Incredibly clear, low-latency 32-bit float technology

Zoom’s UAC-232 is a groundbreaking audio interface with a 32-bit float point — excellent for discerning recording artists looking for ultra-low latency and sound quality a cut above the rest. Setting gain for the perfect take? Zoom says get your hands off that knob. The UAC-232 captures clip-free, low-noise recordings with the help of its 32-bit float technology. Because the UAC-232 protects against clipping even when you don’t monitor levels, podcasters, voice actors, and narrators can enjoy a full dynamic range capture of their performances. City Music has heard many musicians praise Zoom’s F-Series low-noise preamps. Luckily, the UAC-232 features these same clean preamps guaranteed to produce high-quality recordings no matter the setting.

Software and modes to streamline your workflow

Zoom makes it easy to take comprehensive control over your setup with the UAC-232’s Mix Control software. The software allows you to modify I/O routing easily, activate loopback, and control input and monitoring levels. Easily route straight to your DAW with the Music mode or combine all inputs to one signal for streaming applications through the Streaming mode. Moreover, the UAC-232 makes it supremely simple to combine input audio and playback from a computer, then route it back to your software. This way, you can add music to streams for background interest or sing live to an instrumental track.

Keeping it all connected

A Direct Monitor Switch allows you to send an input signal directly to your monitor feed and route it to your DAW or streaming software simultaneously. You can take advantage of the Mix Control to further fine-tune your monitor feed in terms of volume and panning. A 100-milliwatt headphone output keeps you fused into every detail of your recording process — this output drives even the most demanding headphones without distortion. Finally, the UAC-232’s USB 2.0 connectivity means you can easily record and stream on PC or Mac to software like Cubase, Pro Tools, OBS, and more.
