Universal Audio Volt 2 Max 10-In / 4-Out USB Audio Interface with 32-Bit Audio

The Universal Audio Volt 2 Max gives home producers, musicians, podcasters, and growing project studios two analog recording channels with built in tone shaping and compression, plus room to expand when sessions get larger. Its two digitally controlled preamps provide 60 dB of gain, while 32 bit conversion at sample rates up to 192 kHz captures vocals and instruments with detailed resolution. Two microphone and line inputs pair with two front instrument inputs for recording vocals, guitars, basses, keyboards, and stereo sources. Shape the Recording Before It Reaches Your Software Each preamp offers Warmth, Focus, and Shine Tone Shaping modes for three distinct analog inspired characters. Max Processing adds six realtime compression presets tuned for vocals, guitars, and bass. Pairing Tone Shaping with Max Processing creates more than 18 available character combinations, so users can quickly choose a sound that fits the source without building a complex software chain first. Start with Two Inputs and Expand to Ten The optical input adds up to eight ADAT channels at 44.1 or 48 kHz, allowing the interface to grow with an external preamp. The same optical connection can also accept two channel S/PDIF. MIDI input and output support keyboards and controllers, while the integrated USB hub can connect and power compatible peripherals. Two headphone outputs share one cue mix, and the built in talkback microphone makes communication easier when recording another performer. The full color Smart Display shows levels, settings, and compression gain reduction directly on the hardware. Auto Gain helps establish recording levels, while Clip Protection catches unexpected peaks. Loopback supports podcasts and livestreams, and USB bus power keeps the interface practical for desktop and mobile setups with compatible Mac, Windows, iPad, and iPhone systems.
