New Steinberg UR44 Interface

The perfect balance between connectivity and portability: the UR44 is a powerful USB 2.0 audio/MIDI interface designed to suit a wide range of recording and production situations. Inside its compact, rugged metal case we find four Class-A D-PRE preamps, six inputs, four output channels and MIDI I/O, as well as advanced features such as a built-in DSP processor and a “Class Compliant” mode for full iPad connectivity. For all these reasons, the UR44 is an example of flexibility and quality, equally suited to professional studios, large rehearsal rooms, mobile recording sessions and home recording environments.
