Steinberg UR242 - USB 2.0 Audio Interface with Dual Microphone Preamps and iPad Connectivity Review

Steinberg UR242 - USB 2.0 Audio Interface with Dual Microphone Preamps and iPad Connectivity

Apr 13, 2015

Reviewed by c2j2k on B&H Photo Video

Since this purchase was my first foray into digital recording, I spent time researching comparable products and the accompanying software packages. I decided on the Steinberg UR242 because of the reviews of their preamps, four separate inputs, and the price. B&H had the product in stock when other vendors did not, and they offered free next day shipping. I received the UR242 from B&H as promised. Installation of drivers and software went flawlessly, and the UR242 works as I expected. The only drawback is the learning curve to use the Cubase DAW software, but I believe that would be the same with almost any DAW. ... More

Good package with few cons

Overall great sound quality. Biggest problem is that the headphone output is very low. So you will need headphone amp for serious work. Clean sounding preamps and good effects in DSP. Dspmix features could be better but for a $140 spend its good. Very portable for travelers and sturdy.

Well built - no disappointments

I am new to DAW, and chose this unit to connect a vocal mic and my Yamaha MODX to my Windows laptop. The B&H staff helped me choose the right model for my needs, and it arrived in two days. Im no expert, but the thing is super rugged, weighs a ton, and works as advertised.

Excellent and very good deal
