Audient Console Mic Pres

The only the only company that use the same Class-A mic pre design throughout our entire product range, whether you’re in the studio with an Audient console or on the road with iD22, you’re always guaranteed the same world class Audient sound.

Pristine Converter Technology

iD22 provides you with high performance AD-DA converters. Quality in the analogue stages of design comes from years of experience as analogue console designers, and when coupled with outstanding converter technology it enables you to hear audio as it’s supposed to sound. The importance of converters should never be underestimated. Experience audio the Audient way.

Why Do Converters Matter?

Plug & Play

As well as offering you 2 channels of mic pre, iD22 has a harmonically rich JFET D.I input. Designed to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier, you can plug your guitar, bass, keyboard or drum machine straight in and start recording instantly.

Perfect for guitar and bass!

Scroll Control

Get hands on control of your software with iD22’s ScrollControl. With a touch of a button iD22’s volume encoder becomes a virtual scroll wheel that allows you to adjust DAW hosts, plug-in parameters, iD22’s mixer app and even scroll through your iTunes library – just like you’re adjusting a piece of hardware. Wherever your mouse pointer hovers, the iD knob can scroll to control!

Expand

Need to track drums? No problem! As your system grows, iD22 can be expanded via the optical input connector, supporting both ADAT or S/PDIF. Enabling you to expand up to ten inputs via an eight-channel mic pre, such as the ASP800.

Balance Inserts

Two fully balanced insert points enable you to bring your outboard gear in from the cold and prior to conversion. Insert your favourite compressors or EQs and start creating vocal chains that rival the very best. The insert return also gives you direct access to the analogue to digital converters – providing the cleanest signal path possible, making it great for print-backs or integrating outboard line level sources.

Listen

During iD22’s development we discussed ways in which we could showcase iD22’s versatility in a variety of genres. We were so confident you could make a release quality recording with iD22 we decided to get out in the field and record three different artists varying in style. Listen to the result for yourself…

Console Style Monitor Control

When not using the virtual scroll wheel, the iD button can be assigned to control iD22’s monitoring features. Following in the footsteps of it’s critically acclaimed big brother iD22, we’ve still included DIM, CUT, Polarity Reverse, Mono Sum, Talkback and Cue Mix monitoring, all of which can be assigned to the iD button.

Intuitive Software

Discover just how simple it can be

We understand the need to keep things simple and iD22’s mixer app was designed with that in mind. Whether you’re creating low latency cue mixes or utilising the flexible monitor control, iD22 tightly integrates the hardware and software making the recording process easy. Enabling you to concentrate on what’s really important – the music.

Windows 10 & MacOS High Sierra Compatible
