Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 Audiophile 2×2 USB Audio Interface
The Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 is a compact USB audio interface built for musicians, vocalists, podcasters and home recording enthusiasts who want to connect microphones and instruments to a computer. Its 2-input/2-output design provides a straightforward setup for recording vocals, guitars, instruments and other audio sources.
With a MIDAS-designed microphone preamplifier, switchable +48V phantom power and direct monitoring, the UMC22 offers essential recording features in a durable, space-saving metal chassis.
MIDAS-Designed Microphone Preamplifier
The UMC22 features a MIDAS-designed microphone preamplifier that provides a dedicated microphone connection for recording vocals, spoken-word content and other audio sources.
Its switchable +48V phantom power supports compatible condenser microphones, making it suitable for a range of home-studio recording setups.
Flexible Microphone and Instrument Connections
The interface provides two input channels for connecting different audio sources:
- Input 1: XLR/TRS combo connector for microphone and line-level signals.
- Input 2: Dedicated ¼-inch TRS instrument input for guitars and other compatible instruments.
This arrangement allows you to record a microphone and an instrument through the interface.
Direct Monitoring and Headphone Output
The Direct Monitor switch allows you to monitor your incoming audio signal directly. This helps you listen to your performance while recording without depending entirely on computer-based monitoring.
The dedicated headphone output and output-level control make it convenient to monitor recordings through compatible headphones.
Clear Recording Controls and Indicators
The UMC22 features individual gain controls for its input channels, alongside signal and clip indicators. These controls help you monitor incoming audio levels and make adjustments during recording.
Its simple layout makes the interface accessible to beginners while providing essential controls for everyday recording work.
