Zoom’s U-24 audio interface provides everything you need for high-resolution quality anywhere your work takes you. The 2-in/4-out audio interface uses the same preamps from Zoom’s popular H5 and H6 Handy Recorders, ensuring excellent sound quality. With this interface, you can connect to your PC, Mac, or iPhone/iPad via USB and start recording.
Sound quality is crystal clear in recording and playback with professional low-noise mic preamps in the U-24. Recording and playback are supported at resolutions up to 24-bit/96 kHz. You can also repurpose the U-24 into a headphone amp for studio-grade music listening.
Tweak your mix without worrying about latency issues. Flexible monitoring options to balance the cue and main out signals or build a mix of click track and main out signals ensure you can dial in your mix with no latency.
Streamline your recording process by connecting the U-24 to a wide variety of gear. Two combo inputs support connections to mics, keyboards, mixers, and more; both inputs can accept 48V of phantom power. MIDI input and output jacks, TRS and RCA output jacks, and a headphone output are also on the interface.
All the U-24’s functions are packed into an interface that can fit in the palm of your hand, perfect for mobile content creation. Controls and knobs are easy to access and adjust even while holding the interface. Two AA batteries can be used to power the U-24.
The U-24 can go even further when paired with compatible software. Ableton Live Lite (included) offers the must-haves for modern music creators, with enhancement effects including EQ, compression, reverb, delay, chorus, filter, and more. You can also mix and record live using the U-24 with Ableton Live Lite. Download Steinberg Cubasis LE (free in the App Store) for even more possibilities in recording, editing, and mixing.
