[@archiebeatz]

Thank you all for watching! The Universal Audio Volt 476P is definitely a new contender. Check it out here: imp.i114863.net/4e95Ao

[@charmurff7422]

Wondering if it has dsp

[@diegochiodo]

I'm between this one and the Focusrite 8i8. I'm wanting upgrade from a Focusrite 2i2. I need a few more inputs and just a few more outputs so I was looking at this old 476 and the Focusrite 8i8. should I spend the extra bit and go for the volt? or not worth it? im just a musician and play a bit of everything. wanting to record my original music and demos. I'd appreciate if you could help me out!

Bro I was NOT expecting you to bless us with that voice

[@jalapenowarrior1665]

I just bought one of these. I'm totally new to using a DAW, so I'm in deep water. It seems like this interface is easy to use. Now, I just have figure out the software. Thanks for the video.

[@laughwithoutsmiling]

Sheesh Archie. I didn’t know you had vocals down like that 🤯 mad respect

[@guitarsgearandgoodvibeswit7306]

I'm using the UA Volt 476 and absolutely love it. I'm a metal guy and it works great.

[@archiebeatz]

Nice! I'm glad to hear the 476 is working out for you brother!

[@RileySullivan]

I’ve had my 2 channel Focusrite Scarlet for just about 10 years now. I think this UA 4 channel interface is the perfect upgrade. I’ve been wanting to mic my 2x12 amp with a dynamic and a ribbon mic, AND go DI. Now I just hope my computer can process all those channels at once. 😂 Thanks for this detailed video on this product. You answered pretty much all of my questions.

[@wiltherebmusic3726]

Haha that's crazy.. literally in the exact same position have had a 2 channel Focusrite for just a lil too long 😂

[@DJDoubleEdge]

I purchased mine before seeing your video...but seeing your reaction to it makes me feel confident that I made a great selection 😎💯

Great Job Fam. I’m going to have to grab that. Thanks for reviewing

[@BORN7SUPREME]

The preamp sounded pretty warm from what I could tell. Nice

[@archiebeatz]

Yes, it's nice. I'm tracking tons of stuff through it and will post soon.

[@paulpedersen8623]

I've gone through two Tascam interfaces, the US-4x4 and the US-16x08. Both died after the warrantee expired but before the two year mark. As you can imagine, I've given up on Tascam. I've gone to the UA Volt 476P and I find it's a big improvement over what the Tascam units offered (when they worked).

[@mikemckelvey5062]

I just bought it. Let's see how it goes.

[@archiebeatz]

Awesome. Congratulations and keep me updated!

Pleasantly Confused, LoL... Apollo Solo or Volt 476P?...

[@AbiSax]

Nice video, can you please telll how can I connect this audio interface to mixer like a mackie onyx?

[@sethsurfer]

i might be dumb but can you connect analog gear to this?

[@jcmelodyfilms2750]

Wow superb

[@archiebeatz]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@raymondharrisoncomposer]

Currently Iam using the UA Volt 2 however I will purchase the Volt 476p

[@darkdazemusic]

What did you buy in stuck on the same thing right now

[@chris.rcavazos]

how would you compare it to the apollo twin? i like my twin but it would be nice to have more than two mic inputs without spending a lot more money

[@mattysmith7897]

I also wonder the same thing… 🤔

[@kyle27085]

What are your thoughts on the 476p vs the Apollo solo, is it better to get a solo?

[@mrvron]

this has latency issue that makes it hard to track with some plugin

[@jerrybones3213]

Thank you I think I made my decision I’m using an old interface focusrite pro 40 but I wanna up grade

[@MINDSET_THE_PRODUCER]

Hold up again what’s the name of that song you sang at the end? Damn🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@LonerMob]

I have the 276 and I do enjoy it, but I dislike the signal noise it generates from activating the compressor. Does the 476p suffer from the same issue? Would prefer to get that compression without engaging the gain on the UA.

[@TheColdHarshTruth]

Are those instrument buttons for Hi-Z?

[@larrylynch8113]

I ve got one single question ; can you power it only using an iPad or an iPhone using usb C ? May you please test it for me ?

[@detroittrickster3327]

you can but it will kill your batteries

[@larrylynch8113]

@@detroittrickster3327 have you tried it ? Like I already have one with 2 entry and it works sooo well with just an iPhone

[@AngloSaxon1]

How are the preamps in this compared to Audient preamps in the Id 14 mkii

[@JonKenzieLive]

Does it make any difference when using your exsisting UAD plugins in your DAW? I have previously been using a Apollo twin

[@GearZenChannel]

Can you use the compressors like a plugin rather than printing the compression when tracking?

[@consciousimagesllc2210]

Yes, you can use them like external analog hardware by routing out of your DAW, through the 476p and back in

[@andrew.lozano]

One of the biggest problems I'm having with the UAD VOLT is that on a Mac using logic pro with mastering plug-ins and my output at unity gain on both main Output and Output 1/2 , The UAD introduces a lot of audio clipping. There is no way to lower the input signal so that it doesn't clip the output without turning down logic pro. Traditional interfaces usually have a software control panel to adjust the output. The volt does not have that therefore it's useless when doing mixing and mastering in all DAWS. I have tested this in Logic Pro and Abelton. If your output is at -1it outputs really bad clipping. Does anybody have any idea how to fix this.

[@therealMS_]

Hey, do you resolve your problem ? I want to buy a new interface and I actually use Logic Pro, hesitate btw 476P and the Clarett 4Pre+. If you still have your problem with the 476P, maybe I shouldn't buy it

[@Namelessforever_]

@@therealMS_did you end up getting it? I feel like there are always so many opinions good and bad on literally every interface. Makes it tough to decide

[@yoryanacortizar9998]

Hello. I have purchased a universal audio volt 476p and want to use it for live performances as well. I have a connection problem. I need to connect a trumpet, a keyboard, a microphone to the interface and I have an iPad where I play the backing tracks, but I also need to use a mixer. So when I use the front inputs that come directly from the instruments and microphones and I use the outputs that then go to the mixer, only the two monitor outputs work, which are the first two channels that I connect to the mixer. The other outputs do not. Please can you help me with that kind of connection? Thanks

[@machaka571]

Can the 6 outputs route individual signals? Or 1 & 2 are necessary a copy of monitor L & R signal? I want an interface which also works for my live shows so I need it to rout at least 5 diferent individual signals.

[@ahmedalfkeki8013]

I got it today, but I am facing a problem. When I turn up the volume of the headphone to the highest level, the sound card cuts and restarts itself. Is this normal because it is protected from loud sound, or is there a problem?

[@kalehorvath]

Can the 48v phantom power be turned on for each input separately? Or does it only turn them all on or off?

[@archiebeatz]

Hi Kale. All 4 XLR inputs receive phantom button is pressed. I'm thinking this is going to be something the do individually in the future. I hope this helps.

[@kalehorvath]

@@archiebeatz Thanks man! That's a bit disappointing, but can't have everything, haha

[@adajay9257]

I don’t have this interface, but I don’t think that is true. When you press the 48v button on the front, you then press the instrument button for any input you don’t need phantom power. Isn’t that the case?

[@ChadCWatson]

Just got this to replace my motu audio express

[@BrettEllisMusic]

How did you release your XLR cables? did you notice after you plug your XLR in it is impossible to pull it out? You will never have access to use that channel with TRS Quarter inch input. I have 2 Volts a 4/76 and a 2/76 my XLR cables a permanently locked in. They have no release tab.

[@erock5b]

How does the recorded sound quality match up to the apollo twin?

[@TheOnlineBusker]

Dummy question here..... I only see one 48v switch, so they are either all on 48v or all off, right? So using a condenser and dynamic at same time.... how is it possible? The 48v is switched on for all channels and just doesn't affect the channel with dynamic plugged in? (Acoustic guitar with condenser and dynamic for vocals is what I'm thinking...) Thanks for any info!

[@ipoponq]

Just to be sure: Can you turn off the compressor or should it be always on?

[@benjaminvillarreal1499]

You can definitely leave it off. If you use it, it will affect all your receiving and not be able to remove the effect in post productions

[@SuperciliousLLC]

I need a 476 vs 276 review...I am torn??? #loveandHUNDREDS

[@carriesolomonmusic]

I’m currently using a Presonus 24C and having major issues with it-mixer knob doesn’t work, can’t hear my vocals in headphones, SUPER low signal and shitty, distorted vox recordings without clipping on more than one mic. This looks like a great replacement! Any idea how it compares to Tascam? Was looking at their $499 interface and also a nicer mic

[@renojunes4445]

I just got this and I’m having issues hearing myself as loud as I’d like in the headphones while recording. When I turn the gain up, the recording gets distorted. Using a Sterling mic.

[@eyeceeyooh]

how do you switch between voc, gtr, and fast?

WHY WOULD YOU RECORD PERMANENT WITH ANY EFFECTS ON! RECORD THE DAMN AUDIO RAW AND THEN YOU ADD ANY VINTAGE OR COMPRESSOR EFFECT!!!!!!!!

[@ankeviousoliver4472]

DO NOT waste your time and money on these budget interfaces. When people say they don't matter it's BS. Save up and get some high end converters. I've been mixing for 18 years and went through focusing, apollo, ssl, black lion and other interfaces. Once I got some lynx aurora converters I finally got the depth and sound I had been missing. Just my opinion.

[@geesusarchives8178]

Yeaa I get you but some people can’t quite start with a $2-$4k interface

@ankeviousoliver4472 What interface do you recommend 2024?
