Roland RUBIX44 USB Audio Interface 4 in/4 out Audio Recording Interfaces

The 4-in/4-out Rubix44 USB audio interface from Roland offers a balance of high-fidelity sound, compact size, solid build quality and powerful features that give you studio-grade performance just about anywhere you choose to record.

The Rubix44 is embedded with four low-noise mic preamps and 2-Hi-Z jack inputs for guitars or other high impedance sources. It also supports audio resolution up to 24-bit/192 kHz and features class-compliant Mac and Windows drivers, for low latency. Four individual balanced outputs provide you additional options for routing audio to external gear or setting up a stage monitor.

The unit is also featuring two hardware compressor/limiter to help ensure you for capturing a hot signal without clipping or unwanted distortion, and big level indicators that clearly show if a channel has incoming signal or if you're going to overload, critical for working in low-level light environments such as stages.

The Rubix44 is well equipped to meet the rigors of the road. Its sturdy and compact metal construction, extensive shielding, and ground lift effectively protect it against radio frequency interference and electrical hums, often found in live venues.

Connect your Rubix44 to an iPad, and using the included Ableton Live Lite software, turn it into a compact system for on-location productions.
