Audient

Audient – recording technology from home studio to professional studio

Audient is a British studio brand with a broad range for recording, conversion and monitoring. Alongside compact audio interfaces, the manufacturer develops multichannel recording solutions, microphone preamps, monitor controllers and analogue studio consoles. Audient Console Mic Preamps are a recurring feature across many products. The range therefore addresses musicians and content creators with only a few recording sources as well as producers and audio engineers building larger studios with additional inputs and outputs, ADAT expansion or more advanced monitoring functions.

iD Series – audio interfaces with Audient Console Mic Preamps

The iD Series extends from the compact iD4 to the iD48 with 24 inputs and 32 outputs. Between them, iD14, iD24 and iD44 cover recording setups of different sizes. As the interfaces become larger, they provide more analogue and digital connectivity as well as additional monitoring options. The iD48 is the flagship of the series and combines eight Audient Console Mic Preamps with 32-bit ESS converter technology, switchable analogue inserts and ADAT expandability. Anyone planning to integrate several microphones or outboard devices should therefore consider not only the number of inputs needed today, but also possible future expansion.

EVO 4, EVO 8 and EVO 16 for straightforward recording workflows

The EVO Series follows a particularly accessible approach for home recording, streaming and content production. EVO 4 is suited to compact recording workstations, EVO 8 expands the concept with additional inputs and outputs, while EVO 16 is designed for considerably larger setups. Operation is focused on making important recording functions quickly accessible. EVO interfaces are therefore especially interesting for beginners and producers looking for a clearly structured audio interface without giving up flexible routing and expansion options.

EVO SP8, ASP800 and ASP880 for additional microphone inputs

If an existing interface does not provide enough microphone inputs, a studio can be expanded with external preamps. EVO SP8 combines eight Smart Preamps with AD/DA conversion and is particularly suited to digital EVO setups. ASP800 and ASP880 are eight-channel microphone preamps for more demanding recording applications and can add further input channels to an appropriately equipped studio. Such expansions are useful for drum recording, ensemble sessions or recordings involving several musicians at the same time.

ORIA, ORIA Mini and NERO for professional monitoring

Alongside recording, Audient also covers control of the listening environment. ORIA combines an audio interface and monitor controller for immersive setups and is designed for multichannel monitoring up to spatial production environments. ORIA Mini is not an audio interface, but a dedicated hardware room-correction system positioned between the interface and studio monitors and used with Sonarworks SoundID Reference. NERO provides traditional desktop monitor control and allows several monitoring paths to be managed centrally.

ASP4816 and ASP8024-HE – analogue studio consoles

For larger professional studios, Audient offers the ASP4816 and ASP8024-HE analogue recording consoles. They are designed for working environments where many signals need to be recorded, routed and mixed in the analogue domain at the same time. The Audient portfolio therefore extends well beyond conventional USB interfaces. Musicians with compact home studios will rarely require such infrastructure, while professional studios can benefit from the extensive routing and mixing possibilities.

Which Audient audio interface suits your studio?

For single-source recording, vocals, guitar or podcasting, a small number of inputs is often sufficient, making iD4, iD14 or EVO 4 natural starting points. Anyone recording several instruments simultaneously should compare iD24, iD44, EVO 8 or larger solutions. iD48 and EVO 16 are suitable for more extensive recording environments and future expansion. Alongside channel count, important factors include microphone preamps, digital connections, headphone mixes, monitor control and the studio equipment that may need to be integrated later.
