Four Class-A Microphone Preamps

Class-Leading Converters

Offering an incredible 126 dB of dynamic range and 112 dB of THD+N, the iD44 MkII's class-leading ADC converters have been designed to deliver an honest and natural translation of your audio, helping you hear subtle details, identify problematic issues, and make better mix decisions.

16-Channel Digital I/O Expansion, More Possibilities

Easily configure your studio to tackle bigger sessions. Equipped with two optical input and output connectors, the iD44 MkII gives you plenty of options for expansion. Supporting both ADAT and S/PDIF, boost your I/O by adding up to 16 channels of mic preamps to your setup.

Balanced Inserts for Hardware Integration

Integrate your favorite outboard FX prior to conversion and start creating customized signal chains. The balanced insert returns give you direct access to the A/D converters, providing the cleanest signal path possible and making it great for print-backs or integrating outboard line-level sources.

  • Track and mix with hardware FX
  • Bypass built-in mic preamps and record with external mic pres

JFET Instrument Inputs
