DISC Novation Audiohub 2x4 Audio Interface and USB Hub

Full Description

Novation Audiohub 2x4 is a compact audio interface and USB hub with 'Focusrite sound inside', designed for high quality electronic music production. Novation has partnered with legendary audio manufacturer Focusrite, to raise your sound quality with exceptional 96 kHz, 24-bit audio performance. Sample pristine audio in - get pristine audio out.

Housed in a tough aluminium chassis, it sets up in seconds and de-clutters your desk, whilst still providing easy access to volume controls. Novation designed this for the gigging electronic music producer. It's compact, reliable and housed in a tough aluminium case. It's as rugged as interfaces get!

Premium matched stereo RCA inputs mean you can capture pristine stereo sound and synth recordings. Live music needs to be loud and no performer appreciates quiet headphones. Every output on Audiohub 2x4 is blisteringly loud: the four RCAs, the two balanced jacks and, if you connect the power supply, the headphone output too.

The ultra-low latency performance is essential for playing out live using input signals, such as synths. Of course, you can always hit a button for direct, latency-free monitoring. 

Novation has integrated three USB 2.0 ports into Audiohub 2x4, so you can connect your Launchpad, keyboard controller, NI Maschine or any other USB gear to your computer at the same time greatly decluttering your set-up. Mac users can simply plug in and play. PC users get simple, solid reliability from dedicated low latency drivers. You can even connect it all to your iPad, if you connect the power supply and have a camera connection kit.

The Audiohub 2x4 comes with Ableton Live Lite, the music production software of choice for countless leading artists, as well as an impressive collection of production-ready samples from the highly-esteemed Loopmasters.
