Alctron U16K-MK3 USB Digital Audio Interface

Alctron U16K-MK3 USB Audio Interface
The Alctron U16K MK3 is a fully featured USB Audio interface. It has 2 solid state preamps, zero-latency monitoring, 16 kinds of DSP effects, dual XLR-combo inputs and 48v phantom power for your condenser microphones.

Record Vocals and Guitar at the same time!
The Hi-Z guitar input is routed to channel 1, leaving the combo jack input for channel 2 free to connect a microphone or line level device.  Add effects to your vocals, and choose whether to have the FX signal recorded or just used for playback through the headphones. Ideal for getting comfortable while recording, but being able to apply effects in post production. All outputs are routed to a single stereo mixdown.

A/D Resolution
This audio device has a 24Bit/96KHz processing chip (recording 24bit/96KHz, playback 16bit/48KHz). There are no drivers required, simply plug and play. 

Ins and Outs
Apart from the dual XLR-combo inputs, there are two headphone inputs as well, with seperate volume controls. Individual RCA inputs come with their own controller too. Dual headphone outputs are great to share the mix between performer and producer and giving individual volume controls.

Power Supply
This unit derives its power from the USB connection. If, however, you might need to use the interface to provide 48v (phantom power) to a connected condenser microphone, or if you would like to use this audio device away from a computer, simply use the included 5V power supply, and you can utilise this audio interface away from a USB connection.
