Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very high quality product, it's not the first time I bought it.

I purchased it specifically for a condenser microphone, I was looking for something with phantom power + a little bit how the sound card worked. These are not professional analogues of sound cards for 15k +, but after many years of listening to your favorite tracks with the hope that the sound will get better from buying new headphones - each track plays differently. Seriously, I really love basses, or acoustics (Whoever listens to the Mill will understand), thanks to this card, it seemed to…

Pros
  • Surprisingly noticeable difference in sound. Possibility to mechanically adjust the input/output volume. Rubber feet, on a slippery table, the weight of the cables does not leave for a good journey.
Cons
  • Didn't reveal.

Simple connection, the only thing was to buy tulips and an adapter from 6.3 to 3.5. Everything works fine, I have a BM800 microphone and on a standard fountain power it had background noise and buzzed. Now this problem has disappeared. What was required in general from this device. But there is a problem with speakers and headphones, since this is USB, it is displayed in the system as a single sound output. And I have headphones and speakers connected, and it turns out that the sound plays both

Pros
  • Microphone stopped making noise Improved sound in headphones and speakers
Cons
  • I can’t separate channels, both speakers and headphones work at the same time

A terrible purchase, I sympathize with everyone who bought it.

In short, a complete cal. I took my M-Audio FireWire 610 to the studio, took this one as a replacement home to occasionally play music. There is no question of a game here, even taking into account the fact that even during playback, problems begin. And, still it was not possible to make friends with the microphone input with discord / steam / skype, although Reaper has a signal from all inputs. But maybe my hands are crooked. In any case, I strongly do not recommend this flawed card.

Pros
  • - Small - Three twists, you won't get confused
Cons
  • Noisy / cracking - just a nightmare! Yes, if you only have YouTube open and you watch the video, everything is fine. But as soon as you start using it for its intended purpose and try to record something, problems begin: the buffer is small, the 16-bit DAC cannot cope, cod and noise are inevitable! Also, if several applications that use sound are open, cod starts again The driver is a separate song. General ASIO4ALL gets up, but be prepared that he will give the card into exclusive mode. You can download other firewood from Beringer's site - it will be a little better, the problem with monopoly will go away and you will be able to play with a bang, but play through Guitar Rig under gtp.

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

Actually the main purpose - connecting a condenser microphone with phantom power BM-800, it performs perfectly. For the sake of phantom power, I bought it. The built-in sound card gave a very weak sound - you literally had to shout into the microphone. Plugged in the UM2, toggled the "phantom power" switch and was amazed at the sensitivity of the mic. You can speak in a whisper at a distance of 2 meters - and this is perfectly written on the sound card. However, you can hear everything - how…

Pros
  • The most budget sound card with phantom power support
Cons
  • The guitar (when connected to Line-in) does not sound very good. The feeling that undercuts the lower level. Volume on the guitar at the maximum, Gain on the sound card - at 90%. Seems like it lacks reinforcement.

There are several shortcomings, but, it corresponds to the norm.

I took a friend to test for wine 10, the driver is asio4all 22022. I myself have a Focusrite Solo 2nd gen, so there is something to compare. Let's start with the most serious minus - delays. The driver manages to set the buffer size to only 256 samples so that the sound does not break. And these 23 ms for processing are felt too clearly to be able to record vocals normally. On the guitar, this is already less noticeable, and it is relatively comfortable to play, . . if you do not pay attention…

Pros
  • Price, sound is good, phantom power.
Cons
  • Plastic case, long delays, really gives out only 16 bits, noise when emulating a guitar amplifier, I would like more gain for instrument and microphone inputs.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

I took it to work because I was tired of a clumsy, buggy craft of some kind of synaptic, which is built into the motherboard. About sound recording and so on, I don’t care at all about this, I don’t use it and don’t plan to. The people seem to be completely stoned, that they want the quality of professional iron for 2k. In theory it is possible, but in the realities of capitalism it will never be)

Pros
  • - Incommensurably better sounding in comparison with the poor installation. - Price
Cons
  • No separate control for outputs and headphones

Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Reading the comments, I thought there would be problems with regards to firewood and sound, but everything worked out, the firewood got up instantly, the sound became stable after rebooting Windows. I didn’t plan to take anything like this at all, but it turned out that the new MAONO-A03 microphone requires phantom power and decided to take an external sound one right away. For one thing, I upgraded my JVC HA-RX700 headphones, I had an adapter from them from 3.5 jacks to 6.3 and after…

Pros
  • Works as it should. Noise is only if you unscrew the sensitivity to the maximum, which is logical. Perfectly performs the role of a phantom and amp.
Cons
  • No bundled XLR-XLR cable : problems did not appear immediately, the firewood was dropped and the sound turned into a mess, with or without firewood. It was decided by a complete reset of Windows and everything that could touch the microphone and the card. I also had to tinker with "why the microphone did not work in applications", the solution was to put the same frequencies. Hmm

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

An excellent compact sound card, I took it instead of the old Line 6 UX2 card, which I successfully broke down after many years of use. I have a condenser microphone, and I can't do without a phantom-powered card. It takes up very little space, which is a big plus. But you need to look for drivers yourself, since they are not on the official website. But it's good that I found them quickly, first I installed ASIO4ALL so that the card was connected to the laptop, then the latest version of the…

Pros
  • Price, compact, easy to use
Cons
  • You have to look for drivers yourself, and there was no USB cable for connecting to a computer in the kit (fortunately, I still had the wire from the old sound card)

Good value for money, I recommend it.

In general, I liked this audio interface, there were no problems with firewood, the main thing is to search a little. The only disappointment is that I cannot use the micro and headphones at the same time. Therefore, while you have to listen through the motherboard. And the sound through the behringer um2 really came to me. So if you know how to fix it, I will be very grateful.

Pros
  • Price, convenience, quality, sound
Cons
  • There was a problem. When headphones are connected, the microphone does not work. I switch the def output device to another, and the micro comes to life. In short, two devices do not work at the same time.

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

For everything to work properly, you must first install Asio4ALL, and then follow the Beringer driver from the Internet (on YouTube you will find where to download). Without native firewood, something clicks in the headphones, in short glitches. With native firewood is normal. The sound is quite good for the money. Naturally better than any built-in sound. There was no task to connect instruments and microphones, it was bought purely for monitoring. At the bottom of the market is the top

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Drivers

There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

The sound on the exhaust is good, but it turned out to be so noisy that you can’t play a wet guitar through it. As soon as you turn on the plug-in with distortion, it immediately starts to hiss wildly. And the noise is not affected by the INST GAIN 2 knob and whether a guitar is connected or not. It hisses on its own. It will be possible to play only if the drive is not heavily loaded on the virtual amp and noise reduction is used.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Noise

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

I needed a soundtrack to finish the bass for the album at home. There is not much choice - Behringer is the only one in its price category. I asked the seller - between the UM2 and UMC22 models, the difference is only in the microphone gain. Well, yes, I don’t need it, why overpay, I took a cheaper model. I was afraid of reviews on the Internet - both on and in online stores. Like, the sound is bad, hisses, drivers can not be found. COMPLETE BULLSHIT! Who said there are no drivers on the…

Pros
  • Price quality
Cons
  • If you do not understand the sound - you have to tinker.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

I was not going to buy this thing, but after reading reviews everywhere that everything is noisy and has a big delay, I could not resist and try if this unit is so bad. And here are my observations on this. I must say right away that I use it for practicing guitars at home, I didn’t connect the microphone, I tried recording and different emulation in the guitar rig (I actually do it in it). What you need for any audio interface to work: POWERFUL processor (I have i5 7300HQ) connect it to USB…

Pros
  • Price. number of interfaces
Cons
  • Not a very pleasant appearance and build quality, but what are we talking about, this is an audio interface, in fact, it was possible to sell a bare circuit without a case .

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

This is my first external sound card. Bought for use in tandem with a condenser microphone, recording an electric guitar and outputting sound from a laptop to headphones and an audio center via AUX. I had to dance with a tambourine notably: the card started up normally only after I completely demolished all the audio drivers that were previously in the system, rolled up the ASIO driver for this card, and only after that I installed all the Realtek stray things. But it was worth it - everything…

Pros
  • Easy compact Inexpensive
Cons
  • Lack of normal drivers, and hence dancing with a tambourine for a normal connection

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

Before that, I couldn’t listen to music for longer than 10-15 minutes, I preferred to sit in silence, I thought that either my acoustics and headphones were completely worthless (both at the level of $ 100), or I planted my ears in my old age. From the first seconds of this sound recorder, I realized that I like listening to music again. Moreover, even mp3s of medium quality and music sound luxurious. The sound is simply divine, clear, deep, the scene is well worked out, no equalizers, effects…

Pros
  • + Compared to a laptop audio chip, even with the Creative Soundblaster cinema 2 poultices, the sound is amazing. + Pretty box, not too small, looks solid, the course of the regulators is not Chinese, the plastic is not easily soiled, does not attract dust, smooth, not too easy to scratch, durable, assembly is good. + Adjust the sound volume on each interface separately.
Cons
  • - 16 bits, not 24. I don’t know what kind of idiot and why he came up with the idea that it is 24-bit. On the Behringer forum people confirm. - The built-in headphone jack amplifier is not very powerful, you have to keep the volume level halfway in Windows, or even raise it higher.

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

I needed an external audio card to connect speakers to a PC due to the impossibility of normal use / upgrade of the built-in solution. Because stereo speakers 2.0 are used and the budget was important (with an eye to at least some quality), then I paid attention to u-phoria um2, and bought it. After reading the reviews, I immediately found and downloaded the "correct" drivers from the links. Most of the time, the audio interface is used to play background music, moreover, using streaming…

Pros
  • Sound (I use to listen to music), functionality
Cons
  • -

The best product, from those that I have viewed, I advise everyone!

I bought it almost by accident, I needed an amplifier for a microphone with phantom power, I did not find anything cheaper than this device. Actually, it worked well with the microphone, but I did not expect an excellent sound from it. But in vain. As a sound card, the device showed its best side, the sound is bright and pleasant. I am now listening to my audio library, although I didn’t even want to turn it on before, listening did not bring satisfaction. There are almost no settings in the…

Pros
  • Great sound, low price
Cons
  • Of the minuses: drivers, some of them are not stable. Now, after three reinstallations and even more reboots, everything seems to work as it should, but there were problems.

Real junk, such a terrible quality still needs to be searched.

Bought to record guitar. If you just hook it up to a computer, then some kind of drava will stand up and the sound will work. BUT, to record sound in abelton live, you still need to install firewood. And then there is no firewood on the official website! After installing the ONLY version of the firewood found on the Internet, the sound changes noticeably, BUT problems appear - distortion, crackling and background. And this can not be fixed, reinstallation, different ports - 2.0, 3.0. In this…

Pros
  • Good design
Cons
  • Zhostko fonit and clicks, fatal problems with drava

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I am writing guitar through it now and have already recorded 6 tracks! There are no problems whatsoever. With Focusrite there was a problem that there were slips / sticks and you had to reload the track, but on this card everything is in order. You can safely buy and do not worry about the fact that everyone says that it is worse than the Focus in all respects. This is the same thing, only in a more fragile version and this is not a problem if you have no one in your hands . I and my hands grow

Pros
  • Everything is the same as Focusrite, but I noticed that with Behringer there are no random slips / sticks that sometimes happen with focus. I write in focus and once in a while, some kind of mini-blunt happens. I turn on Beringer and everything is fine!
Cons
  • The mic/line 1 input is made of cheap plastic and if you are not careful with it when connecting and disconnecting plugs, you can ruin it.

Just super, it's beautifully made, I'm very happy with it.

In addition to the above, I can add that I highly recommend this kind of budget card not only to those who want to engage in sound recording, but simply to music lovers who love good sound. Believe me, no matter what headphones or speakers you have, by connecting them through this card you will definitely feel the difference in sound, because through a normal DAC card they will sound significantly better than through the audio output on the computer motherboard, whatever it may be. After…

Pros
  • For the money, a great tool to learn how to work with professional audio equipment, having everything you need for this. If you want to work with xlr microphones and get a normal sound, then this is the sure minimum that you will need, there is also phantom power and a direct monitoring function. If you are an amateur musician, then through this card you can also perfectly record electric instruments through a separate high-impedance jack 6.3. Another advantage is its compactness, so if you wish, you can safely take it with you, because it starts up on any computer (at least on Windows) with standard drivers, there are no problems with this (I didn’t check the presence of ASIO, because I don’t feel the need for it, however, as far as I know, they are available, though only on Windows, but you can check it yourself on the site). Although it is made of plastic, it is surprisingly very good and not easily soiled, it is almost impossible to smear it with your fingers.
Cons
  • Firstly, not the most practical design. It looks fine, but the knobs on top are not the most convenient solution, on the front panel they would be more reasonable, and a slightly older model has such a solution. From there, there is also a minus that nothing can be put on the upper part, which can make it difficult to link with other equipment, although in my case it is convenient to hold the adapter to the jacks in the recess on top, because. it is often needed. Secondly, there is no power supply to the 6.3 jack inputs, so it WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE to write REGULAR JACK MICROPHONES through this card without its own preamplification, here you either need a microphone with its own separate power supply, or a separate preamplifier with the same function, then you can record this through the line input . Further, rather unreasonable nit-picking, here the DAC and ADC are only 16 bits (although what else to expect for such money), which is generally enough for a simple recording followed by simple processing, but if you want to further engage in sound recording in more depth, then I strongly recommend buying it right away a 24+ bit map, so that later you have room to maneuver in processing. This will be the case when I bought once and for a long time. Of the dubious elements, I’ll also note here the usb 1.1 connection, of course it works fine, and in the cross section it should pass a 16-bit signal at 41 kilohertz, but at 48, as stated in the characteristics, judging by the port bandwidth, it’s not a fact, but this is probably my mistake , most likely everything is working fine, it's just that my calculations are not correct, but still usb 2.0 would look more confident here, and preferably not in the form of the ancient type b, but at least micro, not to mention type c. On the issue of connectors, I’ll also note that the output to the speakers here is implemented through tulips, so you will need to get an adapter if you don’t want to constantly stick them into the headphone jack. In addition, I would like to see a separate volume setting, or at least a mute for headphones and speakers, but if it is possible to adjust the volume on the speakers themselves, then you can live.
