This seems to be among the very best-performing CS4272 implementations out there, with dynamic range overtaking even the Arturia MiniFuse 2 on the input and only being second to the Tascam US-2X2HR on the output side, as well as consistently very low distortion with no nasty surprises. The headphone output is solid (not the highest max voltage but a very good load driver), microphone EIN is good but not exceptional (but still beats its spec). Clearly a well thought-out piece of kit overall, including the power options. In these times of chip shortages, wringing a maximum of performance out of what we can get is appreciated. Beating 110 dB(A) in and out would have been midrange terrain a decade ago. This is getting close to EMU 0404 USB terrain. A good one for measurements, and it's class compliant so will work in Linux out of the box. As it stands, the CS4272 datasheet DR specs of 114 dB(A) seem to be unattainable in practice (not unusual in consumer-grade chips) and about 112 dB(A) in and 111 dB(A) out would be more realistic. It's interesting how things seem to be the other way round for the CS4270 if we look at the UR22C (chip spec 105 dB(A) - in 103, out 106, so the DAC even beats the datasheet, which makes sense if you consider that it was likely based on the CS4391 design spec'd at 108 dB).

Everything has a ten-ohm output impedance on the HP out (a few are worse like the Audient stuff) according to one of his graphs in another video, not ideal but you will be fine. HD280 has very good sensitivity (SPL) and will get loud enough with any interface. You can potentially crank it up to harmful audio levels, so you will have headroom during normal use.

However it does if I also connect the second included power cable to another USB port on the laptop? UA supoort is lame and offers no usable responses:( Does the interface cumulates power from 2 USB ports? And how come sometimes it works with normal USB power and sometimes it doesn't? Does it have a stricter power requirement and if it doesn't meet it, bye bye?? I feel like returning it:(

The *Vintage* mode kicking in only at high input levels is totally inline with vintage (i.e. tube) preamps such as the 610 and 1073. Universal's plugin versions of these preamps faithfully duplicate this behavior. However, UA adds a digital/linear turn-down control on the _output_ side of the plugin. This allows you to crank up the input side to the high levels required to induce the tube harmonics, while simultaneously (digitally) reducing output side, all the while maintaining those harmonics. I suspect the idea here is to crank up the VOLT''s gain to the same necessarily high levels, while turning it down to a more normal level inside your recording app.

Excellent as always. In your tradition of excellent interface reviews, I would love to have you look at the Tascam Model 12/16/24, focusing only on the USB interface functionality to start. I recently got the Model 12. It boasts a 12in/10out interface and its preamps certainly are superior to my trusty older Behringers and I think just as good as Focusrite. Not at the level of Antelope, but not bad... Wondering if your tests would bear that out.

Thanks for the review Julian! One question I have is, does the interface support loopback mode?

@@samueloluyinkaojomu6548 they just sound boring, not sure how great they are for say guitar or anything else that is not vocals, but for vocals the preamp is boring, boosted low mids, sounds automatically compressed , sorta muffled but yet clear still…. I’d say they would possibly match a cheap condenser mic where it’s a bright, harsh mic, but with an expensive mic they usually are already super smooth so mixing the Audient pre with that then you’re vocals will be overly smooth, therefore boring sounding lol

ill stick with my motu m2. I first bought the Scarlett 2i2 then did more research and swapped it with a motu m2. couldnt be happier. UA is trying to fill the market for lower priced interfaces for armatures however doesn't really offer anything revolutionary.

Do you think having the compressor on Volt 276 is much better than getting just Volt 2 without the compressor, do you think it justifies the higher price? Thanks for the review, enjoyed watching it.

Hello Julian. Do you think it's any better than the Audient Evo 4?

Vintage mode sounds just like when I toggle my audiophile system through my tube buffer preamp: Holographic imaging and analog "warmth". I am guessing 2nd order harmonics is added.

Which would have better sound quality when recording a podcast? With Volt or ZOOM H6?

I must admit, I don't get all the griping. Just about every interface on the market sounds great, varying specs or no. An embarrassment of riches. I like the vintage, and can't wait to hear the compression. If it's 1176-like at all, it'll be nice.

Had to add, latency is better than my Audient iD4 @128 buffer, so it's interesting that it's "not as good" in latency on your end. Higher end cards like RME do indeed have terrific latency, but it's hard to believe that in this price range, others are really better.

Excellent job! So, for Volts interfaces, what would be the reference between: analog 0 Vu (+4 dBu) = -?? dBFS (for the DAW when tracking)? to calibrate the vu meter in my DAW? Thanks, regards.
