Audient has announced that their bus-powered interface iD14 is now shipping worldwide.
iD 14 offers two channels of Audient's classic console mic preamps delivering 10 in/4 out with Burr-Brown AD/DA converters, all in a compact, stylish desktop package.
"The mic pres are exactly the same as those found in our flagship ASP8024 console and throughout the rest of the product range, delivering unbeatable audio quality for the price, " says technical director, Tom Waterman.
One of the few USB audio interfaces in its price range to offer ADAT expandability, iD14 gives the option to add external mic preamps - such as the soon to be available ASP800, which can give a user up to 10 inputs.
iD14 has also introduced Audient's ScrollControl. With a touch of a button iD14's volume encoder becomes a virtual scroll wheel that allows a user to adjust DAW hosts, plug-in parameters, iD14's mixer app and even scroll through their iTunes library - just like adjusting a piece of hardware. Wherever a mouse pointer hovers, the iD knob can scroll to control.
Other key features of iD14 include:
- 1 x Discrete JFET Instrument Input.
- Main Speaker Output.
- Independent Class-AB Headphone Output.
- Full Monitor Control Functionality (software controlled).
- ADAT Input for Expandability.
- Low Latency DSP Mixer.
- All-Metal Enclosure.
Price: $399.
