Audient ID14 MKII Audio Interface Review / Explained

Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the Audient ID14 MKII. This is a USB-C bus powered audio interface which is expandable to 10 inputs via ADAT/SPDIF, with 2 amazing internal preamps and a great sounding instrument input. MKII improves the A/D conversion dynamic range by 5dB, and D/A conversions dynamic range by 9dB. The headphone is capable of driving even the HD650’s cleanly and it records up to 24-bit 96kHz.

[@chillywilli]

I bought the ID14 first gen half A year ago and I am more than happy with it. The Motu was and still is bad available. The software is perhaps not to everyones liking, but with the additional 8 channels hard to beat. A beginning sound engineer can record everything with it, including a complete drumkit, if you have the additional channels. Something else for the Audient and SSL and against the Motu, if it is on your desk I really like the controls on top and not on the front. The micports at the back instead of the front are also better with cable handling. The Audient is in between my monitor and keyboard. As always, a nice review, thanks!

None of my other microphones do this. It's weird.

Coming from the iD4 MKI to the iD14 MKII and it has been an absolute pleasure to own, pre-amps are beyond clean and I love being able to have 2 mic inputs. I run my Lewitt LCT 440 Pure in channel 1 and my SM58 in channel 2. I turned my encoder button into a mute button for my Lewitt on channel 1, and then my SM58 has a on/off switch to mute itself physically as well. Being able to mute both my microphones quickly is a blessing bro. The guitar input is clean, and my DT770 80ohm headphones sound very clear. This is just an amazing interface, do not sleep on it. I really wish I had it back when I owned a SM7B...... Also, DIscord works just fine for me with the iD14 MKII!

I prefer Audient ID14. If I want color in my recording, I have the microphone color or a preamplifier or a plugins for it. For MIDI I can find a USB cable. Better is to have a neutral and clear signal and do anything you want. This is my opinion...

[@lifepath7741]

...and 66 dB difference

[@DarkPa1adin]

one more thing. id14 mk2 fixes the orientation of the LR speakers output. now when it is facing you, L is on the left, and R is on the right. previously it was reversed

[@stephenbowlby1638]

I use the Audient iD14 in my voiceover studio. I have used this with Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro (250 ohm) and Sony MDR-7520 (24 ohm) headphones. Have to turn it all the way up to get an ok signal level w the DT770, making it problematic for fine editing, whereas there is plenty of headroom with the 7520 to make your ears bleed if you like that sort of thing. The low roll off at the lower impedance is an interesting issue but with spoken word, I have not encountered an issue, especially as the 7520s perform at 8-50k frequency response, so Sony said. (Alas, my favorite headphones ever can no longer be gotten.) HUGE CAVEAT to the iD14: the firmware is funky in working w Protools. There is a STATE file that you have to find in your library and trash on a regular basis because frequently, you'll open a session, or even continue a session and find you have NO headphone monitoring. The meters are moving in the DAW but no sound in the interface. Super painful because the fix is trashing the STATE file, then pulling the plugs on the id14, rebooting the Mac, and plugging the iD14 back in. But the good news is usually you only have to do that once per occurrence. Usually. Sometimes it takes two restarts, which is really a serious loss of time and a major annoyance. That is what has cooled my jets on recommending the iD14 any more. Audient is at a loss to explain the problem and because it comes from the UK, the whole servicing methodology and time frame was too much of a pain to do (I'd have to buy an equal backup interface to keep working, and why do I want to do that?) that I continue to live with the issue.

[@hydrotosoil7505]

So it looks like the software on the id14 replaces the monitor mix knob on the ID4. This is a major improvement in my opinion. Thanks for showing that crucial piece of information. I hate the mix knob on the ID4. Think I made my decision to upgrade for that alone, and the 4 outputs. Awesome feature to A/B 2 sets of monitors with a monitor controller. 👍

[@FindingKoji]

This explains a lot. I'm about 40db quieter in discord than every other application and discord support was no help at all

[@cnoriga]

Great review as usual and thanks. I have one question, do you tend to compromise between software imput level and the dial knob? I tend to use this to get signal coming from another interface, my knob dials they usually at 2 o clock and the one on software at 0db. What you guys do?

I keep wanting to replace my ancient Edirol UA-5, but it supports two xlr/1/4” inputs, monitor them separately, has RCA stereo input at the back for a small analog mixer, digital out, headphone jack. Don’t need midi. I’m sure the audio is crap compared to the Audient but serves my purpose even though I’m itching to buy something new.

[@Freez_Izzy]

iD14 - It's very close to my perfect next audio interface. I can only pick on: lack of another pair of line inputs or inserts, also digital output, and inputs VU or just led for clipping. Otherwise very good thing for price.

[@mladen777]

Is there any noticeable difference between the D.I. inputs on the interfaces you mentioned at the end. I'm really debating between them and I think the Instrument input will be the most important thing between them as well as latency since I'm primarily a guitar player. Thanks for your reviews!

[@thesingingchild]

Hey Bandrew, Can you do a review on the Miktek MK300? It got a lot of rave on GS, some said it's could sometimes sound like a $1000 mics.

[@drakegostream]

Thank you for the review! The only thing that would really annoy me (and it’s coming back from previous gen.) is volume reset after each power off. The solution could be the preset in the software , but nope - volume level doesn’t save with preset. It’s really unfortunate that despite all this technical mumbo jumbo Audient keep forgetting about the basic QoL features.

[@Podcastage]

That’s a great point there!

True, but considering that my Prism Sound Lyra 2 costs £2300 new, and the iD14 costs about £185 - I really, really, really can forgive this detail, considering the perplexing level of quality on offer!

[@DenisUspeshny]

is there a difference in gain and noise floor between ID4 vs ID14?

[@alphonso0077]

I have been using the ID14 for a couple years and loved it. Recently I added iLoud monitor speakers to the output and I have been using the beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO - 250 OHM headphones. Loved the setup until recently when I noticed all the lights were getting dim and them brighter. Seemed odd although everything was still working. I decided to reboot everything and now all the level LED's are just flashing and the ID14 does not work. I had been using this in a portable system where it was getting powered on off several times a week. Not sure what to make of it as I am trying to re-trace my steps on how things were getting hooked up. I can't believe this thing would be that fragile that a cable hooked up wrong can break it or it too big an output load breaks it. I will most likely get the ID14 MKII as a replacement as I love this look and feel of this product and hopefully it is more durable than the previous gen.

[@m___motion5976]

I just upgraded from Scarlett 2i2 with Marshall Major 2 headphones, to the audient id14 with the 250 ohm 770 pros. I wanted to know what was really going on in my mixes. And the over the ear style is going to let me spend more quality time in the mix bc the marshalls were an on the ear style and always hurt after a few hours. I've been listening to all my Fav songs with them to learn how they sound. I know the Marshalls I've been using have a low end boost. So you think the id14 is powerful enough for the 770 pros right? I know if I turn it up all the way it distorts. But I'm wondering could an even better interface make them sound better

[@eoamupal8316]

Wow that voice correction was so smooth, i wouldn't ever have noticed it if i didn't see the comments :O

Hey what Amazing review like always ! Review about the BLACK LION REVOLUTION 2x2 !! SOUNDS amazing but I want to listen your opinion !! and no too many reviewers have this review

[@PileOfEmptyTapes]

Not looking good so far. Amir @ ASR found mediocre D/A and A/D dynamic range, and Julian Krause was starting to think his review sample was a dud when he found mic input EIN even higher than the Steinberg UR22s'. This seems to be a company that believes in optimizing things purely "by ear", which has a tendency to backfire horribly. As it stands, this interface seems to be a botched implementation of something usually selling for half the price at best.

[@auramac]

@@PileOfEmptyTapes Thank you. I thought so.

[@doctorkj5640]

Great review! I need a bit of advice if you don’t mind. I’m looking for an external usb powered dac to enjoy music with one mic input for online meetings. But the high quality dac for music listening is priority. Do you think it’s worth getting the id14mkii just for that as I’m not a musician therefore I do not need instrument input. The price is incredible for what it does. And I do love having the volume knob instead of fiddling with some tiny up and down buttons. Any dac only device at the similar price point that would do a better job for my use case? thank you in advance

[@Projamusic]

Hi thanks for great video. I have two questions. First: Did you connect the el.guitar to the Di input or to the back line input? When I turn on my Gibson Explorer with passive magnets, the signal clips even when the input gain is turned off. Second: Does Daw report to you that the signal is passing even when your input gain is at zero (turn off)? When I connect the mic At4050 and Bass Guitar with passive magnets, the signal passes up to -24dbFS in DAW and on LED meters.

[@madvmex]

which prefer FOCUSRITE SOLO 3rd G or AUDIENTE ID4 MII?

[@MrDylanMitchell]

Happy to see the MKII iD4 and iD14 updated to current tech. I prefer analog knobs and better build quality over EVO4. Also should keep sound advantage over Focusrites. Manual volume, gain, and mix monitor knobs are very handy. MKII improves on the weak spots of iD4 first gen a little more gain and better headphone output. Expect high ohm headphones to sound better on the MKII. I prefer mix knob on iD4 vs. software but would also like separate control of speaker and headphones and ability to bypass ampand use a channel strip like iD44. Increased gain is nice too using with Rode Procaster at 85 or 90 percent gain I can hit -6 to -8 db if I'm on top of the mic. With a fethead I got down to 55-60 percent gain and have more room to adjust gain. Above 85-90 percent gain it sounds terrible. 76 db gain RME babyface is in another league but also 3x the cost.

[@LaidbackSounds]

I use to have the babyface mk2 a few years ago, and then switched to audient id22, i totally prefer the sound of audient, the converters on audient sound the best and i used to have from rme to spl crimson , apollo etc...Ppl often mistake the extra super stability of drivers in rme and their rock solid devices with the converts quality that are just ok/good, but not very good compared to audient for example which reminded me the way consoles sound when i was in big studios.

[@lance134679]

Thanks for the video. This seem legit as far as quality goes. I think it's important to know that it requires USB 3.0, so won't work on older, USB 2.0-only machines, or it could be a problem if all your USB 3.0 and 3.1 ports are occupied.

Hey. After going through a bunch of your videos for helping make my decision on Mics and Headset Mics, I now find that you are doing Audio Interface reviews as well - which is my next buy. :-) Thanks a lot for all these videos. One things I hadn't crossed my mind and that came out in some comment is that many Audio Interfaces do not seem to have latency free direct monitoring via the TRS outs. They have direct monitoring only via the headphone jack. Can you perhaps touch upon that in your reviews? I might want to use the AI as a mixer when jamming with a couple friends instead of purchasing another device and in this case having this monitor out directly to the speaker monitors would be nice to have and latency free.

I have to have the mic full volume to just about be heard. I've tried it on 2 different computers with 2 different microphones and is the same. I am using good quality lavalier Tram mic. I spoke to audient about this and they said that the unit was faulty and to send it back. So I did that I've got a new unit and have exactly the same problem, there is nearly no gain/volume on the microphone. Any ideas any solutions any comparisons I would love to know about. If it is true this is a huge and stupid drawback to this unit. The other interface I have which I get plenty of volume on the Mic is a Rubix 22.

How does this compare to the universal audio arrow / Apollo solo. I can get them for about the same price but I’m worried about the longevity of the Apollo as it is not class compliant, whereas I believe the audient is class compliant.

I have a question regarding headphone impedance. I own the Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X, which has an impedance of 48 ohms. I'm considering purchasing the Audient iD4 interface, which has a headphone impedance of 600 ohms. I saw in some forums and also Julian Krause videos about the 1/8 impedance rule that using higher impedance headphone amps with lower impedance headphones can affect frequency response and potentially damage the drivers of the headphone. Can anyone clarify if this will be an issue, or if it's safe to use the headphones with the interface? I currently own a Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen and looking forward to upgrade my interface and the only best option now to me is the Audient iD4. Thanks in advance!
