The Behringer U-PHORIA UMC404HD is an impressive 4-input, 4-output USB audio interface designed to help you make professional-grade recordings. With the UMC404HD, you get Midas-designed mic preamps, 24-bit/192kHz resolution and zero-latency monitoring to capture studio-quality sound. Whether you're recording vocals, instruments, podcasts or mixing audio, the UMC404HD has the I/O connections and features you need.

Record With Pristine 24-bit/192kHz Resolution

Harness the power of 24-bit/192kHz resolution to make recordings with exceptional clarity and accuracy. This ultra high-definition resolution gives you plenty of headroom for even the most demanding recording applications, allowing you to capture every nuance and detail. With the UMC404HD, you can record, mix and produce audio confidently knowing the interface won't be the weak link.

Get Broadcast-Ready Sound With Midas Mic Preamps

The UMC404HD utilizes Midas' acclaimed microphone preamp design to provide rich, transparent sound quality. The four Midas preamps offer wide gain range and low-noise performance to pick up everything from subtle vocals to roaring guitar amps. With Midas preamps, every microphone and instrument sounds smooth and balanced. The results are professional recordings ready for broadcasting.

Monitor With Zero Latency for Improved Performances

Working with an interface that has latency can be frustrating and harm your performance. With the UMC404HD's zero-latency monitoring, you can hear yourself clearly with no delay. This real-time monitoring improves confidence, timing and articulation for better vocal or instrumental takes. The interface also provides a dedicated headphone out with monitor source select, perfect for DJ-style cueing.

Flexible Connectivity for Any Studio Setup

The UPHORIA UMC404HD features four combo XLR/TRS inputs with phantom power to connect any microphone or instrument. It provides four balanced TRS outputs to integrate with monitors, external effects and other studio gear. You also get MIDI I/O, S/PDIF output and Hi-Z switch for direct guitar input. With this range of I/O options, you can set up the interface seamlessly within your studio, stage or mobile rig.

Record, Edit and Mix With Tracktion Software

Included with the U-PHORIA UMC404HD is Tracktion recording and editing software to start recording straight out of the box. Tracktion features unlimited track count, VST and AU plug-in support, MIDI recording and editing, automation and more. It's an intuitive DAW designed to help you turn ideas into professional productions.

Excellent.

This is an excellent interface all-around. I make good use of the 4 inputs, and I've tracked stereo acoustic guitar, piano, vocals, electric guitar (both DI and mic'd amps), bass, and drums (via the Glyn Johns technique). -20dB pads on each input are very useful when tracking drums. The metal casing feels quite sturdy. Mine has already received pretty significant battle-scarring, but without impacting performance in any way. Good build quality and great bang-for-the-buck.

Don't buy this product thru GC! Get it from another Seller.

Unfortunately the product itself is not the problem. I wasn't lucky and mine died on me 4 months later after buying it (a defective one). Behringer did not want to fix it( even though it was under warranty) because GC created a policy where it prohibits them to fix this product if bought thru GC. I spent the money and CG didn't fix it and Behringer didn't either! Buy this product somewhere else! Or better yet save extra money and buy a better product!

    Needed clear sound to send signals to front of house (XLR's out) along with sending sound to amps behind me when playing out. Also running one laptop that is pretty old OS and this box works perfectly (Something more expensive Focusrite Scarlett would not and has less outputs). The 4 input recording works well too, adding 4 more inputs to our 8 inputs already for extra mics on the drums recording.

    This was working fine but the headphone jack doesn't output one channel. I tried work arounds but to no success. The Behringer website was not helpful at all. I will not buy anything from behringer again.

    Why does the product description say this: "So, here you go, two scrumptious Midas mic pres in an affordable 4 x 4 audio interface," when the Behringer site says "4 astonishingly pure, world-class Midas-designed mic preamps"

    I own this already I'm just wondering if the headphone jack will also work as a headphone amp? I use this for streaming and playing games.

    Once you plug it in, your computer should just start downloading them automatically. If not they typically have the links available on the Behringer website.

    The software will work with Chromebook. On the rear panel of the UMC404HD, you'll find the USB 2.0 port for simple and easy connection to your computer, along with plenty of analog playback options including 1.4 in. TRS, RCA and XLR.
