Product
Information:
Looking for a simple, affordable way
to get your music into the digital realm? Or maybe you’d like to
connect your computer to an external effects unit or recorder? Want
to transfer your old cassette tapes to CD before the oxide falls off
the tape? The fastest, easiest way to get analog audio into your
computer is with the U-CONTROL UCA222 Audio Interface.
This ultra-compact, USB-powered device lets you connect your PC or
Mac computer to virtually any piece of audio gear. It gets its power
from your computer’s USB port, so no external power supply or
batteries are required. And the UCA222 requires no special setup or
drivers—just plug it in to a free USB port and start recording. The
UCA-222 is also an excellent sound-card for recording directly onto
your iPad 2.
The Behringer UCA-222 Ultra-Low Latency 2 In/2 Out USB Audio
Interface includes access to Audacity audio editor & comprehensive
podcasting software downloadable at behringer.com
The UCA222 features two analogue mono inputs for connecting any
line-level device, such as a mixer or tape deck, and two analog mono
outputs for connecting active speakers or studio monitors. On the
digital side, the UCA222 provides USB connectivity and an additional
S/PDIF optical output for direct analog-to-digital conversion. The
stereo headphone output has a dedicated level control and allows you
listen to either the input source or the computer output.
When used as a professional interface between a mixing console and
your computer, myriad options become available. Some of these might
include connecting the UCA222’s RCA Outputs to the Tape Input jacks
of your mixer or active monitors, or directly into the input
channels of the mixer. Connecting to mixer input channels gives you
access to equalisation and allows you to use your mixer’s AUX Send
features to build extremely versatile monitor mixes for your
recording sessions.

PLEASE NOTE – THIS SOUNDCARD NO LONGER SHIPS WITH A SOFTWARE CD. THE SOFTWARE IS
DOWNLOADABLE FROM BEHRINGER’S WEBSITE, SO THAT YOU CAN GET THE LATEST VERSION
STRAIGHTAWAY.
Some older product boxes may still state that a software CD is inside. This is
incorrect, as Behringer no longer make these CD’s – the time taken between
manufacture & purchase meant that customers were constantly receiving
out-of-date software that was no longer supported by the software manufacturer.
Replacing CDs with downloadable software is now the norm in digital music
retail; it is better for you, the customer, as it means you download and use the
latest & greatest version of software, rather than receiving out-of-date
software which will be incompatible with recently purchased computers.
