The 4-channel model that sets the standard in the U-PHORIA series

Positioned as the 4-input / 4-output interface in the range, the UMC404HD embodies the "studio in a box" concept. The "HD" version enhances definition, dynamic range, and USB 2.0 stream stability, surpassing earlier UMC generations for more ambitious multitrack sessions and a more detailed sound.

Designed for home studios, podcasts, and multi-source recordings

Perfect for singer-songwriters, multi-mic podcasters, or small bands, it simultaneously records vocals, guitars, keyboards, and drum machines. The inserts on each channel facilitate reamping and integration of external effects, while multiple outputs simplify stage monitoring, A/B listening, or sending backing tracks.

A seamless workflow from mic to mix

Preamps and conversion. MIDAS preamps deliver clean, quiet, and generous gain, ideal for demanding dynamic microphones. The 24-bit / 192 kHz conversion preserves transients and micro-details for recordings that mix easily.
Monitoring and outputs. Zero-latency direct monitoring provides natural feedback to the musician. The main XLR/TRS outputs ensure reliable connection to your monitors, complemented by four line outputs to create multiple listening zones or feed external processors.
Studio integration and MIDI. The USB 2.0 connection guarantees broad compatibility with major DAWs. MIDI In/Out ports synchronize keyboards, controllers, and sound modules for a coherent and expandable setup.

Customer reviews

What customers say

Summarized and selected by AI from recent customer reviews

This 4-input audio interface offers excellent value with comprehensive connectivity including MIDI and inserts. Customers praised its "easy configuration," quality sound capture, and affordable price. The headphone amp performs well. However, some noted preamp noise around -90dB affects high-gain recording, and drivers could be improved.

Review highlights

“Great audio card with 4 inputs and all necessary connectivity. Affordable price for features.”
“Easy to use with enough options to capture sounds well.”
“Very good latency at 6.3ms. Excellent headphone amp. No equivalent at this price point.”

Good little USB sound card, very good latency if you don't leave the buffer setting automatically in the configuration panel (in 24bits 96 Khz and 512 of buffer, I have 6.3ms of latency in both directions, no clicks, impeccable).
The only defect, not insurmountable but, a bit annoying: it is the noise level of the preamps (supposedly Midas de ouf of death that kills) which is in the -90Db range.
This is very good for most uses but when you record electric instruments (guitar and bass) intended to be mixed into high gain plugins (metal-type high gain saturation via various plugins including Positive Grid BIAS) it blows a storm. Nothing that is not adjustable with a good noise gate plugin but not very fun.
Likewise, these preamps saturate quite quickly, with my passive but flawed guitar pickups, I have to activate the Pad to avoid saturating the input with the gain knob a fifth of the way.
Basically, for the price there is just no equivalent with the same output quality (top headphone amp, I haven't tried it with my monitors yet), the same number of inputs/outputs, MIDI, 4 inserts for your analog effects, etc...
I recommend with a caveat therefore.
