Roland Rubix24 2-In/4-Out 24-Bit/192kHz USB Audio Interface

Recording engineers and mobile producers who need more than a basic two-channel box will appreciate the Roland Rubix24, a 2-in/4-out USB audio interface that runs at resolutions up to 24-bit/192kHz. Its two low-noise mic preamps behind XLR combo jacks deliver transparent response with 48V phantom power for condenser microphones, while a Hi-Z input accommodates guitar or bass directly.

A hardware compressor/limiter - rare at this price point - tames dynamics on the way in with selectable modes and threshold control, protecting takes from clipping before they hit your DAW. Four balanced 1/4-inch TRS outputs enable separate monitor and headphone mixes or send feeds to outboard gear, and MIDI in/out connects controllers and synths. Extensive internal shielding and ground lifts keep noise out of your signal path, class-compliant drivers make it plug-and-play with Mac, PC, and iPad, and USB bus power means one cable does it all.
