    • Excellent Budget USB Interface/DAC for price - also UMC202HD
I am writing about both the UM2 and UMC202HD: I had to write this review to help out anyone else who comes across this product like me. I want the best for the least amount of money, and I’m willing to spend more if it means avoiding a product that will be a waste of money down the line. These products match my expectations and needs at an excellent price point. UM2: The pricing on this model can not be emphasized enough, because it is literally a third of the cost of more expensive equipment that fundamentally performs on par at its core function (transmitting good quality analog sound to digital for usage in a PC or in other devices through the analog output). I have read that on professional testing, the UMC204 performs as good as expensive equipment at the same fundamental function that cost thousands of dollars more. That inspires confidence in the UM2 since the spec differences are laid out openly (48khz vs 192khz for example). So you know what you are getting, but also that you will be getting the best quality for what you are paying for. Similarly, the UM2 and the UMC22 are identical in feature and function except that the body of the latter is metal, and the outputs are TRS vs RCA. Some more audiophilic folk may demand those design features for reasons they believe are important to sound processing. Personally, I was okay sacrificing those, and to my untrained ears, I find no difference between the PC sound card which is already high quality, and the UM2 interface. In my estimation, the average user who is simply looking to create their own content, or upgrade from a laptop or PC soundcard will be very well satisfied with this device. My primary gripe against this device for which I dropped one star is the installation support, which is none from Behringer. PC compatibility is a problem as it is not usable on a system without installing the right codec. Behringer has made this a messy process, and in fact without support, as it has no proprietary codecs or software for the device. Usually that is good because open source support means that the general community would provide answers to other users. However, the device only runs off of an old codec version that is no longer available on the developers site (ASIO) and is only available through miscellaneous forums which is a serious security concern. That is a massively dropped ball. But in the end I got it to work, so I’m relieved in the end. It took a couple of hours to get it to work which is the negative. I would still highly recommend this to everyone with the note that they need to get some help on the software side to install it properly. Lastly, there is either misinformation, or I just lucked out, but the direct monitoring will work in Stereo, whether it is taking two channels and mixing them, or taking a mono channel from a single input and conveying them to both stereo channels (must use stereo jacks of course, and also stereo connections from the rear RCA to speakers - can also be used for any other receiving device. I even plugged it into my DSLR without problem with Stereo piping into the camera - thumbs up!) Also, if you set this as your primary audio device in your PC, you can use this as a DAC which is on par or better than the internal soundcard in the PC. It will work just like your own PCs sound card. The USB 1.1 has not been any limitation to be at all, so USB 2.0 difference to this appears to be hype to me. Bottom line - extremely recommended. Don’t waste time, money, or emotions into any other device unless your a pro. If your a pro, skip all the other devices and jump straight up to something in the $500/$1,000 range, don’t even worry about budget, and just do what all the other audiophile nerds do (justify and claim the more expensive equipment is better just because of the price). If your looking for a single XLR input, or 2 unbalanced inputs, and one output parallel to the USB output, get this. If you need any more inputs and outputs, explore the other range of devices from Behringer, and get what suits you. The good news is, if you have a little bit of audiophile concern but can tolerate sacrificing the greatest theoretical specs, you’ll find with more IO more laudable specs. In practice, people like me will probably find zero differences. Don’t pay more money for other brands. I also like the potential versatility with this device. I plan to do a recording for a video in a couple of days, and in a month I plan to support a livestream video/audio broadcast. This device can do it all. On UMC202HD: This device should be a significant upgrade to the UM2. Unfortunately it is not in terms of audio quality. It is definitely perceptively better, but not double the price better. The build quality is definitely far better, but it doesn’t impact the performance for me. The only thing that is a major step up from the UM2 then is the addition of another XLR port. When you look at the price points, it doesn’t seem to be giving the value proposition of adding an XLR port to the UM2 or UMC22. The range of prices starts at $30 for the UM2, then goes to $45 for the UMC22 to add a metal body, then $75 to go to the UMC202HD. You could get 2 UM2s if you needed to XLR ports only, and still save money over the metal body. Unfortunately, the market just isn’t priced that way, making these options from Behringer the most reasonable. If you were to go to Tascam, or even other options like Zoom (which allows is recorders to be used like audio interfaces! Two thumbs up!) the point of entry is $80 for basic options (just recorders really) with the first option to add XLR at around $100 or more. This means Behringer is the easy go to solution for adding XLR inputs to your setup. And having two XLR ports vs on definitely opens up flexibility. I could see myself being handicapped in future instances without it (interviews, live-streams and podcasts with more than 1 presenter, etc). So it really comes down to your use. If you are comfortable keeping your use case simple and actively plan on never expanding beyond that, such as having a single person setup, then getting the UM2 is an easy option. But if you have any aspirations towards prosumer/advanced amateur opportunities, then there is very little option that makes sense. At the minimum, you will get a very solid solution for audio interfacing with all of these models. The UMC202HD actually has supported drivers on the Behringer website to boot. The software giveaways are garbage. Don’t worry about them. Audacity is far superior. On the UMC202HD you do lose the consumer friendly feature of mono to stereo direct listening however. For some reason, but which makes the value proposition for the UM2 all the greater, it is wired so that each channel automatically feeds stereo out on the direct monitor headphone output, meaning you will hear sound on both sides of the drums. Unfortunately, the UMC202HD only supports mono to mono channel direct monitoring, meaning each channel input only drives one output channel (left or right) on your monitor or headphones. Maybe this is fine if you actually use a single mono speaker for review which also makes sense. In this way, the UMC202HD is more geared towards professional users which means more equipment and setup the further up in professional equipment you go. Overall very satisfied with the UM2, and mostly satisfied with the UMC202HD. That said, if you find it for $60 or $65 dollars, it would make the deal spot on for value. ... show more

    • Great budget device
Size: 1-Channel Style: Audio Interface
I love Behringer. People sometimes talk them down and I always defend the brand. Maybe it's because all the stuff I've bought from them is newer. The only thing I don't like about this device is that it shows up in Windows as "USB AUDIO CODEC". I would prefer it to show the make and model. I have gotten it confused a few times with another "USB Audio Device" I had connected, and this confusion was unwelcomed. But for the price you can't beat this device. The output in particular is better than my Behringer UMC404HD which costs a lot more. I own two of these, one for the studio the other for travel, and I am very happy with the purchase. ... show more

    • Better than I expected.
Size: UMC404HD Style: Audio Interface
At one time Behringer products were the ban of the industry, cheaply made/reversed engineered/and slave labor were the typical comments you'd hear about them...I have owned several products that were frankly unusable (cheap compressor and a horrific ADA8000)...since purchasing Midas and a few other companies and being re-branded as Global Music I have to say things have really turned around... First lets talk about the drivers, if you are running a Mac OS the drivers are already installed, plug it in go to your midi/audio device settings and choose it, you're done...in Windows (depending on OS version) you are going to need to download and install the appropriate drivers...depending on your computer this can be painless or a nuisance but thats hardly a Behringer problem...my install went quickly and thank god the old days of having to restart your computer every time you installed something is over... Once installed the drivers are pretty seamless...depending on the application it seems that bit depth is adjusted on the fly, which is also a wonderful new thing, not sure if its just ASIO 2 or what but I like it. As far as the U-phoria UMC404HD...for $99.00 you are not going to beat the quality or functionality of this device... I own a plethora of state of the art converters, from Apogee and Prism to the high end Lynx stuff and even some developmental TI and AKM boards...I also have a handful of the smaller Roland/Edirol devices as well as a Duet from Apogee...so my "A/B" comparison pool is above average (yes I might be a hoarder I never sell or get rid of any audio gear)... Frankly the converters in this UMC-404HD are as good as anything in my arsenal (also considering that at anything over 96kHz you are already outside the realm of tangible human hearing when it comes to noise floor anyway)...I have a tendency to NOT like any AKM converter and I pretty much could tell these were NOT that typical wet blanket smearing that a badly implemented "signal chain/psu/chip-choice" usually gives you...these converters are smooth, no clipping, no computer noise (switching power supplies in an DAC power system are a terrible idea but the technology is apparently coming round)...I haven't tried them at 192kHz because its really just a preference and eats up hard drive space (google NWaudioguy and read his stuff on this), but at 96khz everything is smooth as butter crisp and detailed just the way you want it. The Midas pre's are wonderfully quiet, I would compare them to my API stuff with less gain, and overall this device seems to be on the quieter end of converter boxes/pre's, everything is sorta preset at a lower input level, which is fine if you ask me, no reason to drive your digital hot anyway...there is a hint of color but no smearing and no real clouding of the audio signal, its pretty much "what you hear is what you get", I cannot say this about any of my other devices with built in preamps...I NEVER use a devices pre's because I have a rack full of vintage stuff that is better, but this device is now my exception, it sounds as good as the rack stuff, just not as loud...speaking of which (built in preamps) you CAN bypass the pre's by simply using a TRS on the insert jack on the back, so if you don't like the pre's just bypass them and use your own outboard, you still get quality DA/AD conversion and you can real-time monitor with the mix knob on the front...but like I said this product seems to be on the low end of output level so that rule applies across the board to your headphone out...you are not going to be driving some high end/high impedance headphone to bleeding ears level with this thing, not a lot of volume range on the headphone mix but so what? Typically you should be sending out a separate headphone mix to a band anyway and you've only got 4 inputs so lets not pretend this is for tracking an orchestra, it is what it is and its quite good at that. As far as functionality, having an A/B monitor switch on the front of this device is brilliant thinking on Behringers part...no other device in this price range is that versatile... The ONLY drawback/complaint I have is really just a minor one and that is the phantom power switch powers ALL of the channels at once, (not that phantom will harm a non-phantom mic) and I get why they did it (cost probably and for what? A few guys like me complaining?) but it seems to me there should be a way to change this in software if you want (my Apogee Duet lets me do this). I'm not going to go into all of the functions, others (and the Behringer sales video) will do a better job there...all I have to say is if you have heard in the past how crappy Behringer products are and avoid them like the plague I can assure you that something has changed in this company for the better...now the one caveat to that is I have not had to deal with their customer service, for all I know it could be non-existent, but I highly doubt it, they seem to be forward thinking here and listening to the customer base much better than the others...at one time if you had Behringer products in your studio people mocked you, that has changed...if you DON'T have their stuff now I would say you haven't tried them...this is now my favorite converter because, well...the price and the build quality makes my pocket book smile and the ease of use and functionality makes my workflow smile...the fact that its easily portable and I can switch it between DAW systems super fast makes it a bonus all the way around. Get one. They are cheap. ... show more
