If you're looking for a high-quality USB audio interface with a sound quality that's going to give you great sound on your demos or podcasts, the new Volt series from the iconic UA brand could fit the bill.
Universal Audio has recently launched a more affordable range of USB audio interfaces featuring some of the high-end technology you’ll find UA’s more expensive products. For this review, I’ve chosen to look at the base UA Volt interface and the slightly more expensive Volt 276, a classic audio interface with an excellent compressor onboard that can inject real character and energy into your recordings.
You can connect a pair of powered studio monitors to the Volt 2 and hear the output with zero latency to monitor the sound. There’s a larger knob for controlling the monitor output and the speakers connect with 1/4 -inch TRS cables. The Volt 2 can also be used to record directly to an iPhone or iPad using an Apple Lightning-to-USB Camera Adapter and an external 5V power supply to give the Volt 2 a little extra oomph. In addition, a USB-A cable with a barrel adapter in the box can be used with almost any USB power supply to give the Volt 2 a helping hand.
The Volt 276 is beautifully built and finished with retro wooden end pieces that give it the feel of a professional piece of studio gear. I love the design and the Volt 276 feels like a high-quality device. On the top of the unit are two large gain knobs, one for each of the inputs There are switches for turning on the 76 Compressor circuit to each input and a second switch for turning on the vintage amp function.
