The team at British console and audio interface manufacturers Audient are very pleased to announce a new range of very competitively priced USB audio interfaces. The EVO 4 and EVO 8 are simple to use and designed not just for the music recording enthusiasts but also the gammers and podcasters of the world who are demanding ever-higher quality and features from their audio capture devices.
EVO 4 And EVO 8
It’s taken a little while but at long last the rest of the media creation community including podcasters, gamers and Vloggers have woken up to the fact that decent quality audio is important and can make them stand out from the dull, lifeless low-resolution crowd. This was the thinking behind the new EVO range from Audient. Create a product that is easy to use, sounds great, yet retains all the professional features and technical quality we have come to expect from Audient.
Andy Allen, Audient Marketing Director explains:
“We believe technology shouldn’t get in the way of the creative process; it should enhance it and be accessible to all, no matter what their skill-level or art-form and EVO is here to help make great-sounding recordings as easy and effortless as possible.
One of EVO’s most unique features is Smartgain which automatically sets the gain levels when the user starts playing or singing. This is perfect for anyone who wants to focus on being creative, or perhaps is just starting out. Of course, pros can still dial in the gain manually if they choose - as well as benefiting from other features they’d expect from a professional audio interface.”
The EVO range provides high performance, all-new EVO series mic preamps with a 58dB gain range, class-leading converters with a 113dB dynamic range alongside a JFET D.I, Smartgain, Audient’s very handy Smart Touchpoints technology, speaker/headphone outputs, ultra-low latency, monitor mix and loopback functionality. It all adds up to a very impressive feature set for such a low price, depending on the EVO model you choose.
