The Perfect First Step To Home Recording!
The RØDE AI-1 audio interface is packed with studio-quality tech to make sure you can record anything on your computer easily and with outstanding sound.
Versatile And Easy
The AI-1’s single input is a Neutrik combo jack that accepts both a 3-pin XLR (found on most microphones) and a 6.3 mm jack (for connecting most electric instruments such as guitars, keyboards, etc.). Laying down tracks is as simple as plugging in, setting the level and hitting record.
First-Class Monitoring
The AI-1 not only delivers crystal-clear audio to your computer software, it also offers unmatched headphone sound — thanks to the studio-quality headphone output and level control. There are also speaker output jacks so you can connect monitor speakers if you use them.
