The New Audient ID14 MK II Walkthrough | Booth Junkie 

True !

Yay, it has loopback! Time to resharp my karaoke skills. :)

Are you using windows? If so how is the latency on this interface. I only want the old id14 because I like the silver finish but apparently they have bad latency on windows.

@@NigelBolton_ no issues. I do adjust the buffer size depending on what I'm doing but that's because of cpu limitations on my machine, not the interface. The id14 is a great piece of kit 👌

@@cmullenmusic Good to know, have you tried using these are your computers output device or fax? Trying to decide if I need one

@@NigelBolton_ not sure I understand your question entirely, but i do output the interface into a mixer for certain applications like recording audio to video and performing live.

@@cmullenmusic sorry there were many typos in my comment. Meant to say should I consider using this as my output device or dac for my computer. Not sure if it’s worth spending money for one if I have this.

Does the previous version have loopback?

Thoughts?

optical is very useful for plug and play.

And very very expensive too, if you need a high quality A/N converters !!! Maybe go directly on a 1U audio interface !

Hey how do it sound, is it better then the scarlett ??

The DBX286s channel strip should work with any audio interface as it connects through XLR. I am certainly no professional, though I’m hoping to become one at some point, but I’m happy to clarify, elaborate further, or answer any other questions you have to the best of my knowledge. feel free to reply to this comment if I didn’t sufficiently answer your question or if you have more questions. I hope you’re having a good day.

@@joecaroselli9945 dose the quality of the interface change the noise of the dbx 286s As in this Id 14 is high quality, and rode ai 1 is low quality Will it sounds different Or does the interface just become like a cable and the dbx 286s act become the interface

@@Nathansomething Late to answer your question here but as someone with a dbx 286s (That I use for gating and de-essing) and an audient id14 mkii, the preamps on the id14 still affect the audio when routed through the dbx 286s into it, but there will be more self noise on your recordings in the background so there is a little trade off. Just make sure you connect to the id14 with a TSR to XLR input otherwise you'll be bypassing the preamps on a TSR Jack cable if used with the id14.

Hey tim, kindly share what upgrades you plan to get on the id44?? And what's your upgrade costs? And lastly did your id44 get any product malfunction after years of use?

@@beforeyousleepmusicrelaxat7585 I bought mine second hand almost a year ago and have zero issues so far. So for upgrades check the website for revive audio. There are only two upgrades available for Audient, so I choose my model id44 as well as the second option, the time square clock upgrade. It’s gonna cost me $500(bday gift :) , but they told me this will make an already stellar unit, have even more headroom, lower noise, 3D sound, and an extended frequency response, and that they much more encourage an upgrade to a product like this that is already HQ, and take it two a whole new level, rather than something cheap and modding it to make it only compete with a stock item like audient , more bang for buck. But either way , I’ll follow up on this comment after I test my modded interface! This is Revive Audio’s description of the upgrade: Modification Services for Audient Series interfaces On the Audient Series interfaces we offer a wonderful audio path and converter upgrade that is affordable and sounds excellent with a very nice Price-to-Performance ratio. Simply select the model you have from the drop down menu. Once your service has been purchased you will be sent Work Order #, Mailing instructions and mailing form for sending you unit in. Once your service has been checked-in you will receive a confirmation of its arrival and your unit will be placed the Cue for modifications. Turn around is 3-5 business days for the completion of the work once the unit arrives at our facility. Audient Gold Modifications: Modifications feature a full Analog path modification for all channels of analog input and output using high performance Burr Brown and Linear Technologies Amplifiers for excellent low end response and an open top end. This includes every amp in every stage and a number of other performance modifications in the analog path for both in the input and output sections. The analog modifications on these interfaces offer a wonderfully warm front end at the analog inputs coupled with a very flat response output section for a precise representation of your mix, making great mixes easier. Converter De-coupling and coupling techniques are also used for an even broader and more accurate image of the audio from the converters for the full audio experience from these classy little desktop Interfaces. Platinum Series Modifications: We also offer an optional Time Square Clock Upgrade for this model for an additional $175.00 which is one of finest clocks we have ever heard for excellent detail and a jitter of .1ppm Then finally we perform a power supply modification for maximum bandwidth and headroom. The converters with the modifications sound excellent and easily as good as interfaces costing twice as much. With the modifications we get a lot more bandwidth, lower noise, cleaner and larger audio with a lot more headroom. The modifications on these really help to hear inside the mix for optimal tuning. Overall musicality is improved significantly in both packages and the audio image becomes clearer, smoother and well defined just like you would expect from a Revive Audio modified piece.

@BODO BILL FRAZIER my pleasure

Do you like it?

@@TechButler Absolutely!

@@brickflix4949 What mic did you move from?

@@TechButler the blue snowball.

@@brickflix4949 Yep. That's a definite upgrade

@Shiniychi Will a Cloudlifter or similar (I'm eyeing the SE Dynamite DM1) be still required with it for clean voiceover?

Do you think this newer one is worth replacing the original MK?

😭😭😭💀

Let’s say around $500. Full set up to get working. Thanks

Audient.

@@auramac yes I want to go for it , but I wanted a midi in on the interface 🥲

Motu M4 is overated... no adat, no mixer.. and ess sabre you can find often today.. even on pc mainboards for 200$, its nothing special

Audient id14 is much better than the Evo

Only because of the dope ass pres and burr brown converters in the audient... trust me this mic isint even that great but sounds good with this interface

@@rylandweet7750 Ok! I must admit I don't know it - but I think it sounds nice in this video. Better than the SM7b, which I really, really don't like. The interface is quite amazing if it can make a not-so-good mic sound better - that must be the best recommendation possible! :)

@@realthoprivate sm7b is a great mic but only good with clean pres like a daking mic pre , audients pre are coloured compared to other interface pres , what’s your interface ?

@@rylandweet7750 Would you not recommend this iD14 MKII (or any Audient before) for the SM7B? Would I be better off getting an ISA One for it? My current interface is a Scarlett 2i2 Gen 3, with a dbx 286A. Thanks!

@@rylandweet7750 I think it is also a matter of personal taste and the specific voice. For me, I think the SM7b is too "dark" and has the sound we remember from the 90's radio shows playing on the car radio. Also a matter of eq., of course but I prefer a mic that fits my voice without eq.. Myself I use an old Audient iD22 with a 15+ year old sennheiser 416. :) Will keep that mic forever, but need to upgrade the interface, as it is mechanically worn down.

I don't have them, but according to several testimonials, it's another world. If you make hard-hitting music, and need big, deep bass (hip hop, electro, etc.). The Twin is worth the cost !!!! Otherwise the Audient preamps and converters are already great and the best in this price range with the SSL2!

You might want to check out the Stellar X3...it's coming out tomorrow. I'm hoping Mike will do a review on it in the near future.

I just picked up the X2!

@@lynneftw How’s it sound??

@@davidalanbasche6275 I haven't had a moment to try it yet because of a scratched wind pipe that's healing...but the reviews say there's less bass and high end with the vintage, I think.

Yessirr. I can handle till 600 Ohm and a DT990 is 250 ohm

@@Jurrockin Ok bro

I just got the Stellar X2 for VO work after watching other reviews comparing the two.

MK II uses USB C though and USB C to USB C allows for more power to the unit, hence no need for DC input which is honestly a plus for me because wall warts like what the old one came with should be outlawed by now

Same.. did you purchase the 14mkii ? If so… is it better thn the id22?

I think you’re confusing the physical hardware (A or C) with the USB specification (1, 2 or 3)

Same.

It's just an update; I don't think they meant it to be a huge upgrade for people who already own the iD14. My favorite new feature is the USB-C connector, which provides enough power to no longer need the wall wart. (I don't need phantom power most of the time, so almost every time I plug in a condenser mic I end up puzzled for a few minutes about why it won't work.) The mkII also has an additional pair of analog outputs and a second headphone jack.

The knob only mutes the output, not the input.

Thanks for saving me the wait!
