The microAUDIO 22 offers pristine, open sound with a strong sense of space and generous headroom — all in a compact, desktop-ready design. Studio-grade preamps are carefully tuned to deliver musical gain with minimal noise, emphasizing clarity without adding unnecessary circuitry. Both models support up to 24-bit/192kHz audio, and feature balanced inputs and outputs for high-quality recording and playback. Whether recording subtle vocal passages, layering synthesizers, or performing live, every nuance is faithfully captured. Each channel of the microAUDIO series offers versatile Mic/Line/Hi-Z inputs with 48V phantom power, plus assignable Noise Gate, Compressor, and Limiter for smooth, musical gain with minimal noise. Front-panel knobs provide intuitive control, while zero-latency direct monitoring ensures immediate feedback during recording or live performance. The Stereo Link function lets both channels be adjusted simultaneously with a single knob, making it easy to balance stereo sources, ideal for recording hardware synthesizers. The built-in loopback mode allows you to send your PC audio directly into a live stream or DAW without any complicated routing, perfect for streaming, or sampling! With USB-C connectivity, microAUDIO also works seamlessly with smartphones and tablets, making it easy to create music or stream on the go. Whether you’re producing at home, performing on stage, or streaming online, the microAUDIO series adapts to your workflow, giving you professional sound wherever you need it. Streamlined and intuitive, microAUDIO 22 focuses on what truly matters: clean, reliable sound.
