Original music by Sanjay C recorded with the Volt 276
In this video, I review the new Universal Audio Volt audio interfaces. The Volt audio interfaces by Universal Audio are their newest line of budget interfaces. They are compatible with Mac, Windows, and iOS, and include a couple features that other interfaces don’t have. These extra features include a vintage button that emulates the 610 preamp by Universal Audio. The 76 interfaces also include a compressor built-in. Its actually the 1176 compressor! In this video I’ll let you hear the vintage mode and the compressors on vocals and guitar recordings. And I’ll let you know the pros and cons of these interfaces. I’ll also share which interface I think is the best one for most producers.

What do you think of the Vintage mode? How about that compressor? Did you hear the difference?

@backpacklights 2 года назад

Yes, it's pretty nice and subtle, but on a side note, they could've also included loopback for utility apart from such a nice compressor feature.

@aakashverma2022 2 года назад

There's a clear difference when using the Vintage mode and the recording sounds a little brighter and fuller. The compressor is a great addition but it adds a little change and somehow muffles the instruments.

@sebzjunior8965 2 года назад

@gregsilver_official 2 года назад

Nice sound especially in that price range. It's sounds pretty similar to the 4K-function on Solid State Logic's SSL2(+) series if not a tad better.

@Icko_VOT 2 года назад

It's the best when compared to the scarlett air mode and ssl 4k button: the air mode boost with a tiny amount of distortion but no body as with the 4k gives body and boost but with distortion...the vintage mode give a shimmer on top that don't introduce audible distortion more like a HD sound

People don't realize the amazing times we live in - try living just 20 years ago where quality audio products were out of reach. When my father was in his 20s, he had to build all of his own record equipment except for the tape machine but that set him back a lot. This is a huge step in the right direction for high end companies to get into the entry level game. Trust me. It took me a decade of working in studios to have enough money to comfortably buy a Urei 1176.

@MarlonKingShow 2 года назад

Thanks for the reviews, so are all the compression/vintage settings locked in or can you toggle off after recording? Looks like a good way to start out having it all in the box. for me im looking for a bit more connectivity such as ADAT for expansion or a 6in/out would have been nice for synth users. As for plugins, I use waves as saves having to have expensive hardware and one of my main gripes with UA previous hardware. Nice to see this range though.

Audient id14 mkii vs aud volt. It’s main competition

@NaweedQadirdotcom 2 года назад

Thank you so much, Sanjay for this session on UA Volt. I had such a bad experience with Audient ID-44 that I am just looking for an interface with a quality build. I am not ready to spend thousands on Apollo and I know that because of their built-in DSP it certainly makes sense to spend that amount. I am using Waves, Valhalla, Baby Audio, and iZotope plugins so I just need a quality interface. UA's name has its own value and I am expecting it to stand by these budget interfaces too. Love every episode of your channel and looking forward to getting my Volt-476 in hopefully next month when they are released in the market.

@SanjayC 2 года назад

Thank you for the kind words, Naweed. I hope you'll enjoy the Volt when you get it. Also, I'm a big fan of Valhalla plugins. UA plugins are excellent, but if your computer has enough power, you'll be fine with other plugins.

@gaborkiss1425 2 года назад

What was the problem with the ID44? Have you looked into iD4/iD14 MKII? I have just got the iD4 MKII and it's excellent in every way. Curious how does it compare to the VOLT, though...

@NaweedQadirdotcom 2 года назад

Hi @@gaborkiss1425, there is line interference noise coming out through the monitor out. I tested my monitor Eris XT 8 with Motu M2 (my backup interface) and runs perfectly. ID44's driver had issues earlier before they released 4.2.1. The first few months I was very happy with Audient. A lot of users of Audient have opened the casing and sprayed anti-static on them which they claimed resolved the issue. I am looking for a clean, warm-sounding interface and hoping UA Volt will provide it.

@pashayk 2 года назад

Hello Sanjay! Thank you so much for another great video! I've always wanted an Apollo Interface, but than decided that dont want to overpay for DSP, as i am already used to other plugins by great brands. Volts look amazing, especially with the Compressor and Vintage settings. Absolutely great! But just a question to you: would you rather get 476 over 276 for additional outs? and also, i just got Focusrite 4i4 recently (been using their interfaces for a long time, and just upgrated to the latest one), but i am not a big fan of their software to control the unit... would you switch to Volt? or stay with Focusrite? Your personal opinion is really appreciated=))) thank you so much in advance!

The SSL is way better. I recommend everybody to watch Julian Krause reviews. They are very technical and surprisingly the best interfaces are not the ones you'd expect. He makes tons of measurements and has a chart of interfaces. Motu M2 are great quality, Audient are super underrated. You can spare a lot kf cash making the right choices

@orryfishburne5326 2 года назад

I love the concept of the Volt, i just wish they made a larger version. For instance if they did what Focusrite does with the Scarlett series ranging from Solo-18i20 then i would definitely buy a Volt. Im currently using a Presonus Studio 192 and looking to buy a Motu 8pre to expand my Studio 192 via ADAT to 16 channels and also have a backup interface incase my Studio 192 goes down, but if UA made a Volt version with 8 preamps and ADAT in/out then i would be sold instantly. But i think UA still did a fantastic job with the Volt and they are going to sell a TON of them.

@HamHavoc 2 года назад

They did. They are called the Apollo X series

@orryfishburne5326 2 года назад

@@HamHavoc lol i know that, im talking about in the Volt series since they are supposed to be in an affordable price range. Its obvious that Volt was made to compete with the more budget friendly interfaces like the Scarlett Series, Motu M series, Audient D series, etc, and tap into that market. The Apollo Series are their flag ship models, but way to expensive for a working class guy like myself. It would have been nice for them to make a 8 channel Volt that was more affordable than the Apollo. But they didnt, so thats that. Still think the Volt Series was a good step forward for UA into that side of the market, and they did a good job designing them

Thanks for the in depth review. Definitely ruling this out, cos of the non compatibility of UA plugins. I'm super happy with my RME Babyface Pro, but was looking for an alternative. What I'd really like to know from you, is your opinion on the new MacBook Pros. Are you going to buy one? If yes, which one, and why.

I've been using the Edirol/Roland UA-25EX, which also features an on board compressor and has great buildquality. I love this litlle device!

Hello Mr Sanjay c, I really appreciate your devotion to given us review video of equipment best for are studios. Without you such opportunity wouldn't have been possible.... what I need from you now is for you to review the arturia mini fuse and the volt interface.tanks

@SanjayC 2 года назад

I'm planning for that in an upcoming video.

I like what the compressor did to your vocals. It gave it a nice sheen and fullness. I have the actual 610 and it touches everything on the way in except maybe cymbals and it's hard to make it sound bad. A lot less post work as it mixes itself. In my opinion I use outboard compressors along with plugin versions and I'm constantly reaching for the outboard. I also have the BAE FET compressor which is modeled after the 1176. Plugins work in a pinch for convenience, but ehhh lololol

Greetings Sanjay, great video and congrats on the Universal deal! I will be upgrading from the 2001 mbox original, as a matter of fact I already pre-order the 476, however did not pay attention to the mix/monitor knob while going over the features on my own. Very big issue since I will be using this for Twitch live streaming and wont be able to hear my recently purchased “Grand Piano” vst instrument from Ezkeys 😱…really really sucks that I will have to cancel my order… do you think there is a solution to my issue?

Great video! I have been using a Roland GO:Mixer Pro and an Alesis Multimix USB4 to record digital piano / vocals and they work, but same issue with both (and with all my keyboards); I always have to have my keyboard volume almost max, and the line in volume almost max (on line inputs) to get a barely usable audio signal into my iPad or pc. Do you know if one of these interfaces is likely to be better in that regard? Thanks again (subscribed)

very informative video - thanks a lot. One question: how do you shoot those moving shots - with a slider? because they also move up and down and spin. Look amazing. Keep on that great work!

Great video! Those do look awesome. I got the M-Audio 192|4 after watching your video on the 7 interfaces for $100. From that video it was the one that sounded the nicest to me, plus I love the layout and big size, fits just perfectly under my monitor (screen). I have been nothing but happy with it - it's a great interface. I am thinking about upgrading to a 4 input interface soon, I should finally be able to have some friends over to jam, (lockdown restrictions finally going away) and would like to have 2 mics and 2 guitars being recorded. I hope you get a chance to review the arturia 4/4 when it gets released, as those do look and sound really nice.

@SanjayC 2 года назад

Yeah, hope I get the chance to try the Arturia 4 when its out

Hi Sanjay, I am looking to buying my first interface, and was quite sold on the motu m2 and found a local dealer with one. But I then saw this video and wonder if these ones are much better than the m2 and worth the wait (or even international shipping since I live in Canada). Will the m2 still be a good choice even after these new stuff that have came out? Thank you

Friends sanjay... I want build up my new home studio minimum 4 channel input, so what's the best n cheap interface plz 🙏suggest me

@jonlast88 2 года назад

Hi! Great video! Just wondering, can the output levels be changed separately to the monitor level on the 476? I’m looking to Reamp guitars but still use studio monitors for playback.

@juantarctica 2 года назад

I use the Komplete Audio MK 6. It has the option to record two XLR mics and 4 line in sources, and 2 headphones can plugin. With gain dials and phantom power. It got a very affordable price. Not sure if I should replace it with Universal Audio.

I just upgraded from a motu 8pre to an Apollo x8p a few months ago and love it. I wish these were around years ago when i was using a Scarlett 2i2.

@MNmusic2024 2 года назад

CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME, I jstbought the volt 176 and I have 2 mics audio technica at 2021 condenser mic and samson q2u dynamic mic. When using any of the 2 mics with the compressor turned on there is so much preamp noise and the recording is unusable, even when the compressor is turned on and preamp level is at 0 there is so much noise so you susgest I get fethead or dbx preamp or I upgrade the mic to shure sm7b??

@electronicbagatelle 2 года назад

I was going to go for the arturia minifuse (and thanks to your previous video) cause of the extra USB port as a I have a minilab mkII and 2 hardware synths and I use the ipad for my DAW and app synths but this seems to be a better choice, I guess getting a usb powered hub is the only route if choosing this one. Or can you connect the minilab with rolands usb to midi cable? What would you recommend between the minfuse and the volt 2?

@escesounds.8916 2 года назад

Hey Sanjay! Ive been using a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen for a while and been saving up for an UA Apollo Solo, after seeing this release I am highly interested in the Volt and wanted to know how it would compare to the Solo and other similar interfaces, would you recommend me going for a Volt 476 instead? would that be a worth upgrade from the Scarlett anyways? thanks for this video, it was incredibly helpful!

@danielszanto1789 2 года назад

Hey Sanjay, i really appreciate your videos. Now i find myself between arturia minifuse 2 or volt 2 because of the price. Would be interesting to see a comparison video about them. Keep up the good work!

@SanjayC 2 года назад

I'll be comparing several interfaces in an upcoming vid
