The US-200 is a USB 2.0 Audio/MIDI interface with two inputs and four outputs for Mac and Windows computers, housed in a lightweight, portable chassis. Audio can be recorded at up to 96-kHz/24-bit resolution and the two high-quality XLR microphone inputs provide phantom power for condenser microphones. Four unbalanced RCA outputs are available on the rear panel, as well as a MIDI input and output for controlling synths and drum machines. A direct monitoring path allows to listen to the input signal without the delay introduced by computer software.
The US-200 is powered by the USB bus, meaning no additional power supply is required. It comes with a copy of Cubase LE 5 – the latest version of Steinberg’s 48-track workstation software. VST plug-in support, automated mixing and MIDI tracks allow you to craft large productions. If you want to use your own software, the US-200 supports most Mac and Windows audio applications such as Logic Pro, Live, Nuendo, Digital Performer, Fruity Loops, Pro Tools 9 and more.
