Behringer U-Phono UFO202 Audio Interface w/ Phono Pre

Description 

Love Your Old Records and Cassette Tapes? We love ours too! That’s why we built the UFO202 — a simple, affordable way to get your records and vinyl tapes into the digital realm. The UFO202 is easy to use, and you can download professional software from Behringer’s site that not only converts your favorite recordings into files on your computer, but also removes those annoying scratches and pops so common to vinyl media. State-of-the-art switchable Line/Phono preamps and digital converters ensure the utmost in sound quality, making the U-PHONO UFO202 Audio Interface a must-have for every audiophile.

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 bus, so no external power supply or batteries are required. And the UFO202 requires no special setup or drivers—just plug it in to a free USB port and start recording.

The UFO202 features a stereo input for connecting turntables or any line-level device (such as a mixer or tape deck), plus a stereo analog output for connecting active speakers or studio monitors. You can also connect electronic keyboards, sound modules, drum machines and line-level devices (such as the V-AMP 3) directly to your computer for recording. The Volume control allows you to set the level of the stereo headphones.

When used as a professional interface between a mixing console and your computer, myriad options become available. Some of these might include connecting the UFO202’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 equalization, and allows you to use your mixer’s Aux Send features to build extremely versatile monitor mixes for your recording sessions.

Now for just a fraction of the price you’d pay for a USB turntable you can have state-of-the-art digital conversion, world-class recording and editing software, and hassle-free connectivity between your PC or Mac computer and virtually any piece of audio gear, including phono turntables and tape decks. Bridging the gap between your music and the rest of the world—the BEHRINGER U-PHONO UFO202.

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 in 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.
