Professional sound quality in your hands - Class-A mic preamps directly derived from Audient consoles. The new iD series employs the same discrete Class-A circuitry as Audient's classic pro studio console, the ASP8024 Heritage Edition, delivering high-quality sound that's hard to imagine given its compact size. The iD4's Audient console mic preamps minimize noise and distortion while retaining the warmth of classic analog, giving you the same sound quality as professional studios.

Attention to detail: high-performance DA/AD converter
The iD4mkII's converters boast an incredible dynamic range of 120dB ADC (125.5dB DAC), allowing you to hear your mix more accurately. Every nuance and detail in your audio is captured. This precision makes your recording process smoother and gives you a professional-quality mixing experience.

Main Functions and Features: High Performance Dual headphone outputs: Stereo mini jack and standard jack, each equipped with a powerful, discrete, high-current headphone amplifier capable of driving high-impedance headphones of 600 ohms. This allows you to monitor with high sound quality in any recording without being limited by headphones.

Plug and Play - The JFET instrument input jack is a Class A, discrete design using JFETs. Based on the input section of a classic tube amplifier, this DI input delivers rich, harmonic-rich sound. The DI input is also an independent channel from the microphone preamp input, so you can, for example, sing and play guitar while recording simultaneously.

Ultra-low latency - monitor mix
The D4's Monitor Mix allows for ultra-low latency recording, with an optimal balance between input and computer audio for smooth recording without noticeable delay.

Virtual Scroll Wheel Assign the scroll wheel function to the encoder to access various functions such as DAW automation. (Operation and response speed may vary depending on the software manufacturer's support for the scroll wheel.) It can also be used as an assignable button for functions (talkback, phase inversion, etc.).

High durability - Sturdy full metal body
The iD4mkII's body is not only compact and stylish, but is also made of sturdy metal, allowing you to carry its professional-quality sound anywhere with confidence.

●Free download of software with ARC for immediate recording
You can download creative software like Cubase LE and Cubasis LE for iOS for free. With popular software and plug-ins used worldwide, you can start recording right away from the day you buy your iD.

●More speedy - Improved monitor control
iD buttons speed up your workflow: assign DIM, CUT, Phase Invert, Mono Sum, Talkback, or Cue Mix to an iD button for quick access to a specific monitoring function.

●Start recording anytime, anywhere - USB bus power The unit is bus powered, meaning it can be powered from your computer's USB port. Simply connect your computer and start recording immediately, anywhere.

●Compatible with any microphone - phantom power
The iD4mkII can supply phantom power via USB, providing sufficient power for use with condenser microphones.

●iOS compatible
It is compatible with not only Windows and macOS, but also iOS devices, making it ideal for mobile recording.

■ iD4mkII: Supplementary explanation ◎ iD4mkII boasts bus-powered ADI
Many audio interfaces are unable to supply phantom power that meets the standards. As a result, the supplied phantom power of approximately 35V drops to 15V or less due to microphone loading. In this case, it does not meet the DIN45596 standard (±4V @ 10mA). However, the iD4 mkII can provide stable, low-noise phantom power of 48V @ 14mA. Compared to other bus-powered ADI devices, the iD4 offers professional specifications even when bus-powered.

*Note regarding USB bus power:
Both the iD4mkII and iD14mkII require the USB 3.0 specification of 5VDC/900mA for proper operation. When this power is supplied, full +48V phantom power is also supplied to the microphone, enabling full-range performance. The headphone DAC also operates at maximum level. Additionally, when 5VDC/1.5A is supplied via the USB-C connection, they enter high-voltage mode. When both devices enter this mode, the analog circuit voltage is boosted, increasing the headphone output level and other output levels.

◎iD4 mkII is a professional specification
The iD4mkII features a Class A preamp with the same design as the Audient console, and a headphone amplifier with the same performance as the iD22. It employs high-performance ADA converters, boasting ADC: 120dB/THD+N=0.001% and DAC: 126dB/THD+N=0.0005% performance, delivering best-in-class sound quality.

Low-latency monitoring: Many other companies' monitor blend (direct monitoring) functions are mono, which means they cannot accurately capture the stereo image. The iD4mkII's MONITOR MIX is stereo, allowing you to get a sense of the mix in stereo sound while recording. Furthermore, stereo monitoring means that vocalists can sing without removing one earphone, eliminating the worry of sound leaking into the microphone.

Accurate LED Meter The five-segment LED meter allows for more accurate level confirmation than other products. When MONITOR MIX is turned all the way to the left, the two LED meters become independent peak meters for inputs 1 and 2. When MONITOR MIX is turned all the way to the right, they function as a combined level indicator for the input signal and playback.

Packed with best-in-class features: Dual headphone outputs eliminate the need for adapters. Both jacks can be used simultaneously, allowing two people to monitor at the same time.
- A 48V phantom power status LED that is easy to see even for beginners, and a DI with the highest sound quality are essential features for high-quality sound.
The new iDmkII series offers the best cost performance in its class, featuring the same metal knobs as the series, the highest quality electronic parts, low distortion (THD) and low noise. The iD4mkII uses a 4-power supply system inside, achieving high specs not possible in this class.
