Roland Rubix24 2x4 USB Audio Interface
The Rubix24 is a 2-in/4-out audio interface that offers high-resolution sound and compatibility with Mac, PC, and iPad devices. It is designed to provide a balance between sound quality, build quality, size, affordability, and essential features for musicians and producers.
One of the key features of the Rubix24 is its support for high-resolution audio up to 24-bit/192kHz, allowing for clear and defined sound reproduction. The interface is engineered to have extremely low noise levels from input to output, ensuring clean audio recordings. It is made of durable metal and features extensive shielding and ground lifts to minimize interference and ensure reliable performance in various environments.
The Rubix24 features two high-quality mic preamps that are designed for low noise and high definition. These preamps provide transparent and detailed sound capture with ample headroom for recording various sources. The flexible combo jacks allow for easy connection of different instruments and microphones without the need for adapters or special cables. Additionally, the interface offers four individual outputs, enabling more advanced routing and monitoring setups for tasks such as sending a click track to a performer or connecting external gear.
To assist with recording dynamic sources like vocals and percussion instruments, the Rubix24 includes a built-in compressor/limiter. This dynamics processor helps control the signal and prevent clipping and unwanted distortion, ensuring a clean recording even in challenging situations.
The Rubix24 is equipped with big and clear level indicators that are highly visible, making it easy to monitor levels even in dark studio or stage environments. These indicators provide a clear visual representation of incoming signal levels and indicate potential overloads, allowing users to focus on their performance rather than straining to see small indicators from a distance.
In terms of compatibility, the Rubix24 is designed for use with Mac and PC computers and supports both platforms with low latency class compliant drivers. This makes it simple to set up and use the interface, providing smooth and reliable audio performance. Additionally, the Rubix24 is compatible with iPads, offering an ultra-portable solution for on-location recording, on-the-go production, or live performances. As an added bonus, the Rubix24 comes with a six-month free Roland Cloud Pro membership, providing access to the Zenbeats multi-platform music creation app, software synthesizers like ZENOLOGY Pro, TR-808, D-50, and more.
