Vintage Mic Preamp Mode
The legendary Universal Audio 610 preamp has graced so many iconic recordings from artists such as Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, Van Halen and Ray Charles. The Volt 4 interface is equipped with built-in valve emulation circuitry, giving you that unmistakably rich and full sound of that sought-after UA preamp. Engage Vintage Mic Preamp mode to add instant depth and warmth to your vocal and instrument recordings.
No Latency Monitoring
The UA Volt 4’s straightforward 4-in/4-out audio connections allows you to record multiple instruments and voices simultaneously. The front panel preamps are tailored to guitars and microphones (with phantom power for condensers) while the line inputs on the rear are ideal for keyboards, drum machines and synthesizers. A studio-quality headphone amplifier and speaker outputs allow you to directly monitor your audio with zero latency.
iOS Compatible
Volt 4 is a truly portable audio interface thanks to its iPad/iPhone compatibility (an Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter is required for iPhone and non USB-C iPads). USB bus-power functionality means Volt 4 can work alongside your computer or laptop without using a power supply, keeping your studio setup streamlined. A Volt power supply is included if you want to use Volt 4 standalone or with an iPad/iPhone.
Free Software Suite
As well as the Volt 4 interface itself, you also receive a bundle of curated suite of professional software so you can start creating straight out of the box. Included software includes Ableton Live Lite, Melodyne Essential by Celemony, LX480 Essentials by Relab and emulations of classic Marshall and Ampeg amps.
Volt 4 also comes with an extended 30-day free trial to UAD Spark - a constantly growing library of truly world-class plug-ins and instruments that have been used by countless professional producers and engineers. UAD Spark plugins run natively on Mac so no external hardware is required to run them.
