YAMAHA Yamaha URX44C USB Audio Interface (USB Type-C) with USB 3.0 bus power and loopback functionality

[Product Features]

The URX44C gives you more freedom than ever before when recording bands and ensembles. High-quality inputs and outputs, pro-grade components, DSP effects, and compatibility with Mac, Windows, and iPad all packed into a compact body. Turn any location into your recording studio.

Tough Construction: From its sturdy body to its internal structure, the URX-C meets strict manufacturing standards, ensuring high reliability even under the harshest conditions. From daily transport to outdoor recording and touring, hardware is always at risk from vibration, shock, and drops, but with the UR-C, you don't have to worry. It will always perform to its full potential, no matter what session you're using it for.

●32-bit / 192 kHz
Analog-to-digital conversion is the first critical step in audio production. Building on the acclaimed quality of the URX series, the URX-C series offers even higher sound quality with cutting-edge AD/DA converters supporting a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz and 32-bit integer resolution. Furthermore, the hardware components have been optimized for these converters, accurately and transparently capturing every nuance and dynamic range of the recorded signal, preserving even the subtlest details throughout the entire music production process.

D-PRE microphone preamp
The URX-C series features the D-PRE Class A microphone preamp. Developed by Yamaha's experienced engineers, this preamp features extremely flat response, designed with plug-ins and outboard gear in mind, capturing the pure nuances and expressiveness of the audio source without loss. The URX-C series also utilizes AD/DA converters that support up to 32-bit/192 kHz, further enhancing the D-PRE's natural sound quality.

MIDI input/output
All URX-C series models are equipped with MIDI IN/OUT terminals, allowing you to directly connect MIDI input devices, sound modules, samplers, and other devices still popular with many studios and musicians, further expanding the scope of your music production by integrating them with the latest DAW environments.

●SuperSpeed USB 3.1 with USB-C
Equipped with a USB-C connector compliant with USB 3.1 Gen 1, it supports high-speed data transfer and bus power operation, supporting high versatility and mobility. The latest SSP3 chip and driver achieve low latency, ensuring stable operation in any recording environment. USB 2.0 compatibility ensures high performance even on computers without USB 3 ports.

DSP Monitoring & Effects: The custom-made SSP3 DSP chip provides a versatile and flexible monitoring matrix and powerful effects. Eliminates monitor latency issues in software music production environments by utilizing U.DSP IJI (Sweet Spot Morphing Channel Strip, REV-X, Guitar Amp Classics) to freely mix audio data and input sources. Create a latency-free monitor mix in various DAW environments via the dspMixFx URX-C mixer application (Mac/Windows/iOS/iPadOS). When using Cubase, TrueIntegrated Monitoring allows you to control these monitoring functions either from within Cubase or from the dspMixFx URX-C.

The URX-C is equipped with a loopback function, which is convenient for applications such as internet video distribution. The audio signal (line, guitar, microphone, etc.) input to the URX-C's input jacks and the audio signal being played back from DAW software such as Cubase are mixed into two channels within the URX-C and sent back to the computer, allowing for internet distribution via streaming software. The URX-C's built-in DSP effects can also be used to apply reverb in real time, for example.

dspMixFx Remote Bridge
By installing it on a Mac/Win computer, you can remotely control the internal mixer of the URX44C via USB from an iOS device on the same WiFi network as the computer. For example, a musician in a recording booth can adjust the monitor mix to their liking from their iPhone.
