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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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

I know companies can't fit everything into a preamp, either for budgetary reasons or another (saving some features for ver. II). Unfortunately, I think they overlooked loopback (especially since live streaming and podcasting is listed as a use for this preamp). Also, a mix knob for recording is a must. Other than that, the look and features are very good for the price.

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.

DSP was the only reason to get universal audio. without that these r still overpriced. new arturia is the one i will go with

Sanjay , Outstanding review as always. I recently watched your review on the Arturia audio minifuse and I was wondering while would you compare the two. thank you for continuously giving your honest opinions even, when a company is sponsoring a videos.. I’m looking to buy a new Interface and I’m thanking about one of the two above. Which one tickles your fancy the most.

I found out about this audio interface just the other day and immediately bought the 176 as an upgrade to my little Focusrite Solo. I have a zillion plugins I don’t need the ones you pay extra for in the DSP interfaces. Great video!

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!

I currently use an Audient iD44, the lack of ADAT on these is sort of a deal breaker for me, since I use more than 4 channels. But if people don't use a lot of mics then these are probably a really good option, since Universal Audio has a really good reputation for quality.

Is the headphone output independent from the main outs? In other words can an independent cue mix be setup with the headphones? If not then I'm not sure how this could be used for live applications as you mentioned.

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 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

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.
