  • Fabulous Audio Interface, decent microphone, mediocre headphones
Style: UR22C Recording Pack
For background, I have recorded music since I owned a 4-track cassette recorder in 1990 or so. I'm familiar with the whole process and how recordings can (or cannot) be done well. I've now gotten into recording on my laptop in a home studio using Cubase. Because Steinberg makes Cubase, I decided to go with their audio interface as well. My research showed that audio interfaces have become fairly interchangeable in the last 10 or so years, and I wanted to go with an interface I knew would work in Cubase with no trouble. The UR22-C itself has been fabulous. The setup was a snap and everything works as I would expect it. Other reviewers criticize the UR22-C for the knobs and yes, the gain knobs in particular are smaller than they could be for fine adjustments. That said, this interface is designed to be used outside of a studio, including on an iPad. A little extra effort in setting gain is a good trade-off to me. Further, I use the UR22-C with the included microphone and one guitar. I spent about 10 or 15 minutes getting set up well and haven't had to touch them since. I doubt this would work quite as smoothly if I had several musicians coming through my studio, but I don't. Again, see above about the UR22-C not being designed to be a huge studio's choice of equipment. Sonically, the UR22-C has worked extremely well for me. My laptop is fairly powerful, so I've recorded parts at the highest bit depth and resolution (32 bits at 192 KHz) with very little latency (like 8 ms with a 256 sample buffer). USB 3.1 certainly helps in this regard. Frankly, I haven't bothered to use the freebie software that comes with the UR22-C, since I have better choices by default in Cubase Artist. Overall, however, I quite like the UR22-C. It has performed very well for me and does everything I could hope it to do. After a good experience with the UR22-C, I'll move on to the headphones, the ST-H01. An important component of recording with a microphone is isolating that sound from everything else, which means using headphones while performing the part. The ST-H01 headphones are...er...not the finest. If I break down the price of the Recording Pack, the headphones couldn't possibly make up more than about sixty bucks of it, so my disappointment isn't a major surprise. In short, the ST-H01 headphones aren't too comfortable. When I use them, my ears are sweaty within 10 minutes. Sonically, the headphones are only OK. I have Adam Audio T5V monitors in my studio, and I will always mix using those instead of the ST-H01 headphones. At some point, I am likely to buy a better set of headphones, but given that I use them only to record parts that require a microphone, it is not a big priority for me. I hadn't expected a lot of the headphones, so I am not too upset about their performance. To end the review on a positive note, the microphone, the ST-M01, isn't bad. The frequency response is pretty flat and recording a Martin acoustic guitar has resulted in a very good sound without a lot of messing around with EQ. The ST-M01 is a condenser microphone, so it needs a power source - the UR22-C provides that, but it is necessary to remember to turn it on. The microphone comes with an insert that allows it to be used either on a camera-type mount or a standard microphone stand. I thought that was pretty sweet. Sonically, the ST-M01 has been decent. I mentioned above that an acoustic guitar has turned out well. Vocals, however, are a little mixed. Vocals that I have done with the microphone sound just slightly thin and require a bit of thickening. That said, I'm 25 years older than I was when I did most of the recording in my life. My voice has gone from an Eddie Vedder / Peter Steele amalgam to a Tom Waits / Leonard Cohen kind of sound. So maybe it's me. In fact, it's probably me, but I don't want to admit that to myself just yet. To sum up, I am very happy with the UR22-C Recording Pack. The audio interface has worked extremely well for me, and the microphone has been sufficient for what I am doing. The headphones aren't the star of the Recording Pack, but they are adequate for what I need to do at the moment. In one purchase, I built a significant part of my recording studio, and I like that. There is no doubt that I will want to branch out into different microphones in time, and if I ever want to do mixing without waking the family, I'll have to get better headphones. But overall, I am quite pleased. I would recommend the UR22-C Recording Pack for anybody who is just getting started in recording. There are ways to move up, but this level will keep me busy for some time to come. ... show more

  • This thing weighs a lot more than it looks
Style: UR22C
I'm not the biggest fan of the ergonomics of it. 1. The only way to turn it off is to switch it from USB-C power to MicroUSB, using a tiny switch on the back. I'm fine reaching across the desk to accomplish this, but sometimes you just want a power switch right at the front. 2. The only way to switch +48v is a tiny switch on the back of it. Look, I know this sounds like I'm repeating myself, but damn I wish it were a button or switch on the front panel. BUT Here's why neither of those things matter: I am using a rather tough to power condenser, and I had to turn the gain up quite a bit, but you know what? I don't hear noise. In fact, I don't hear the system noise until I am very close to 95% of maximum gain, well past where I get a good signal going for -12 to -6 The thing must have all of it's power supply and wires in the back of the unit, because this thing is quiet! I cranked my D-75A to max, cranked the UR-22C monitor knob to max, and I have to place my head right about six inches from the speaker to hear the faintest hiss. Meanwhile, that would pop my ear wide open if I played something at those levels. At unity, it's silent! Playback is clear, but my monitors are not isolated from the table and one is next to a corner and yadda yadda I really can't comment on the sonic purity of the signal, but it is clear. Played some CD rips through the system and they sound nice and flat, just as they should on my system. I am waiting for my new computer before I install any included software, but I am looking forward to the built in DSP functionality. Edit: The supplied DSP effects are solid and can be used for playback/monitor only OR record friendly for a track. There's a couple guitar amp effects and a Compressor+EQ with independent operation. Also the reverb send/return busses are a neat addition. I use the EQ + Comp to give my condenser a little more closeness and it works as intended, nothing sticks out, very controllable and worth using to spice up playback. Nothing about the UR-22c has disappointed me, or let me down, it's exactly what I bought, exactly what I hoped to get integrated into my system. ... show more

  • Not 32bit
Style: UR22C
I could not get 32bits on this. It only allows me to select 24bits. I monitored the levels without any mics plugged in and the gains set to lowest and got -85dB
