    From the manufacturer

    Steinberg UR Interfaces

    With Steinberg’s line of USB 2.0 connectivity interfaces, you’ve got it all covered: the UR range comprises a 19” rack-mounted studio solution, a desktop production interface, an ultra-compact mobile unit and an advanced portable production studio — all engineered and crafted to meet the most exacting standards.

    Sharing the same heritage as the highly acclaimed MR816 interfaces, the URs house outstanding converters and D-PRE Class-A discrete mic preamps. Each interface is completely adapted to your needs while sharing the hallmarks of the UR range: great build quality, stunning sound and flexible, fully integrated capabilities. Ultra-stable drivers for Mac OS X and Windows mean that the entire UR range supports all major recording software applications.

    Guitar Amp Classics

    Guitar Amp Classics make extensive use of advanced Yamaha modeling technology. Four amp types with completely different sonic characteristics are provided, CLEAN, CRUNCH, DRIVE and LEAD.

    Sweet Spot Morphing Channel Strip

    The Sweet Spot Morphing Channel Strip consists of a sidechain-enabled compressor and a three-band parametric equalizer. Both EQ and compressor were developed to attain a highly musical sound.

    REV-X reverb

    The REV-X built into the UR824, UR28M, UR44 and UR242 is a complex reverb algorithm developed by Yamaha. REV-X features three types of reverb effects: Hall, Room and Plate simulations with reverb time and level control.

    D-PRE microphone preamps

    The preamp is where sound creation begins in recording, and ultimately determines the quality of your mix. All UR audio interfaces offer D-PRE Class-A discrete mic preamps from Yamaha. The D-PRE is carefully designed to capture all the subtleties and expressiveness of any audio source and is the culmination of years of development by the experienced engineers at the Yamaha Corporation. D-PRE Mic Preamps sound stunning, and the difference is in the design.

    D-PRE has a very wide frequency range so that it can handle any music source and it does not overly amplify any specific components of the signal. It’s beautifully tuned to be able to capture the true expression of a given performance or audio source, while leaving flexibility for later editing.

    "...It was the easiest setup I've done to date with one of these things. Best part?..." Read more

    12 customers mention6 positive6 negative

    Customers are mixed about the latency of the audio midi interface. Some mention it has super low latency, while others say it has terrible latency and works very slow. They also mention the delay of signal is what puts them off, and the interface freezes completely.

    "...There really is 0 latency and it doesn't use that much of your computer. I use it on a Mac with a 3 gig Intel i3 and 8 gigs of ram...." Read more

    "...Mostly, the delay of signal is what puts me off. Granted it had been a few years and I knew technology was getting better...." Read more

    "...QUICK NOTE: picks up really well when using a mic.. if you normally set your pre amp volume at about 75 percent, back this one up to about 50-60%..." Read more

    "...every two minutes, and every hour/two hours or so, the interface freezes completely, disconnects everything connected to your computer via USB..." Read more

    9 customers mention3 positive6 negative

    "...It has started turning off then back on (takes about 1 second each time) every 10-15 minutes. The warranty for this i believe is 1 year...." Read more

    "...It has a clean mic pre-amp and a decent amount of gain (not great, but enough for a lot of mics)...." Read more

    "...have also said when its flashing like that its because its not getting enough power which im not sure why it wouldn't considering i have a 750 watt..." Read more

    "...It was a nightmare. The phantom power worked for less than 2 days, and I was able to successfully record for less time than that...." Read more

    14 customers mention0 positive14 negative

    "...computer via USB (including important hard drives), and the interface refuses to work unless you turn it off and then turn it back on again...." Read more

    "...Maybe the scarlet doesnt work right on Windows 8.1, not sure. Besides that, nothing bad to say about either...." Read more

    "...One I purchased originally just completely stopped working after a few days, and the replacement is causing random bursts (3-5 seconds) of static,..." Read more

    "...I contacted customer support, or tried to because the system did not work on an iPad, in that, it continue to say it did not recognize the app..." Read more

    good hardware, abysmal drivers.
    1 Star
    good hardware, abysmal drivers.
    This review goes out as a warning to all Windows users who are looking to buy this or any other Steinberg USB interface... Expect to have to do hours of debugging and research, along with some sacrifice, if you don't want annoying audio cutouts! The driver seems to semi-randomly cut power to the interface for a split second, "interrupting" it as indicated by the USB light, causing the audio to disappear and take a couple seconds to fade back in.Look on the Steinberg forums for the UR series audio interfaces and you will find that this is a problem that many people seem to have had for years. The "fixes" you will find are all related to disabling random and sometimes obscure features and settings in windows and in BIOS for decreased power consumption and are not guaranteed to work, with some people going as far as disabling dynamic frequency scaling on their CPUs.This specific issue doesn't happen to me on the default windows audio drivers (though audio distortions take its place), so until Steinberg bothers to patch up their drivers, this has the unfortunate position of being some pretty neat and quality hardware bogged down by geriatric drivers.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Una interfaz sólida, versatil y con un sonido excepcional.
    Reviewed in Mexico on February 20, 2017
    Muchos podrían considerar a la UR22mkII como una interfazde audio para principiantes y con justa razón. Igual que su variante original, es barata, tiene conectividad de 2 canales e incluye DAW ya sea para pc/mac o iPad. He encontrado un gran número de personas que poseen distintas interfaces iguales o del nivel de la UR22 que varían de principantes a profesionales y al preguntarles el por qué prefieren la interfaz UR22 suelen todos responder: “Está construida como un Tanque” y “Tiene un sonido increíble” y debo admitir que tienen razón. Después de usar esta interfaz por una semana desde que la adquirí y haber grabado varias piezas formato multi-pista, es una compra de la cual no me arrepiento en lo más mínimo.

    Construcción:
    En el momento en que tengas la UR22MKII en tus manos quedarás sorprendido de la calidad de su construcción y esto es por su chasis completamente de metal. Sin problemas podrá soportar uso rudo como el estar rebotando si la llevas dentro de tu mochila camino al ensayo.
    La UR22MKII incluye un cable USB 2.0, licencias para Cubase AI y Cubasis LE, un disco de instalación con sus drivers correspondientes, un manual traducido en varios idiomas y si han conseguido el paquete de grabación este incluye también incluye unos auriculares con calidad de monitor de estudio y un micrófono de condensador para realizar unas grabaciones cuya calidad definitivamente te sorprenderá. (El disco de instalación es útil, pero recomiendo descargar el driver y firmware más reciente desde su página oficial: www.steinberg.net)

    La UR22MKII tiene dos entradas XLR Híbridas con Phantom Power. Cada entrada tiene su propio control de ganancia y la entrada #2 tiene un interruptor para activar el nivel de impedancia Hi-Z para guitarras y bajos. Cada entrada tiene su propio indicador de picos. Un cuarto LED muestra la conectividad USB ya sea por PC/MAC o iPad. Tres perillas ofrecen: un control de volumen Entrada/DAW para monitoreo directo sin latencia y los controles independientes para audífonos y salida.

    El panel posterior observamos un puerto USB 2.0 Type-B para datos y un conector Micro-B USB para fuente de corriente externa (El Cable Micro-B USB y el adaptador de corriente no están incluídos.) Entre ambos puertos se encuentra el interruptor para seleccionar la fuente de corriente de la unidad. A un lado podemos encontrar los puerto MIDI IN y OUT, también se encuentran las salidas izquierda y derecha de ¼ de pulgada con conectividad TRS balanceada y TS sin balancear así como el interruptor para activar el phantom power para micrófonos de condensador.

    Alimentación de corriente:
    La UR22MKII es alimentada por el puerto USB 2.0 Type-B cuando se encuentra conectada a una computadora, sin embargo, en cuanto se emplea con un iPad se necesitará utilizar el puerto Micro-B USB. Esto es porque un iPad no puede proporcionar corriente suficiente para alimentar la interfaz. En este caso recomiendo usar un adaptador de corriente AC de 5 voltios para uso de estudio o alguna batería externa como la Jackery Giant+ para cuando te encuentres lejos de de algún contacto. Cualquiera de las opciones necesita una alimentación de al menos 500mA de corriente.

    Los Controladores:
    Ya que la serie UR ha estado en circulación durante algún tiempo, la compatibilidad de sus controladores es bastante sólida. La última versión de los controladores soporta desde Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks) hasta OS 10.12 (Sierra). El soporte de controladores para Windows incluye Windows 7, 8, 8.1 y Windows 10.

    La frecuencia de muestreo llega hasta 192 kHZ y también tiene soporte para transmisión en vivo por internet.

    Poco tiempo después de su lanzamiento se informó de un problema de comunicación MIDI cuando se usaba La UR22MKII en Windows, afortunadamente el firmware puede ser actualizado a la última versión (Actualmente 1.04). No importando la plataforma en la que te encuentres, recomiendo mantener el firmware actualizado. NOTA* ANTES DE ACTUALIZAR EL FIRMWARE es necesario contar con la ULTIMA VERSIÓN DEL DRIVER. Ambos pueden descargarse gratuitamente desde su página oficial en www.steinberg.net

    Mac y Windows:
    Usar la UR22MKII tanto en Windows como en Mac en un DAW como Cubasis AI o como yo, Presonus Studio One 3 no tiene problema alguno. Esto aplica también en una gran variedad de DAWs y programas de audio y video.

    iUR:
    Usar la UR22MKII con un iPad no requiere drivers; Tan solo conecta la interfaz y abre tu aplicación favorita, iOS hará la configuración de audio automáticamente. Pero ten en mente que algunas aplicaciones pueden grabar audio en 16 o 24 Bits, te recomiendo investigar el como configurar tus apps para sacar el mayor provecho a esta gran UR22MKII.

    Si no cuentas con ninguna App para música o audio, puedes descargar Cubasis LE desde la Apple Store. Puedes usarla antes o después de conectar la interfaz pero sólo después de conectar la UR22MKII es que la aplicación funcionará sin ser la versión DEMO. Cubasis LE puede manejar 4 pistas de audio y 4 pistas MIDI, tiene 25 instrumentos virtuales, una mezcladora y 4 procesadores de efectos. Para más control, pistas y características puedes actualizar a la versión completa de Cubasis desde la misma aplicación, pero obviamente con un costo adicional.

    Sonido:
    Debo decir que soy un gran fanático de los preamplificadores D para micrófono de Clase – A que vienen incluidos en todas las interfaces de la serie UR. Tienen un sonido particularmente musical, limpio y revelador. No incluye ningún procesador interno DSP, pero honestamente no debemos esperar contar con esta característica en este rango de precios.

    Conclusión:
    El mercado de interfaces ‘2-in, 2-out’ tiene mucha competencia, incluyendo la Scarlett 2i2 de Focusrite y la Tascam US-2x2. La Tascam es compatible con iOS y también tiene puertos MIDI pero muchos usuarios encuentran desagradable el diseño angular de su chasis. La Focusrite tiene preamplificadores equiparables a los de Steinberg pero no tiene compatibilidad con iOS ni puertos MIDI.

    La frecuencia de muestreo a 192kHz de la UR22MKII hace que ésta se distancie de la competencia, agreguemos la construcción sólida de su chasis, Software de excelente nivel, compatibilidad con iPad, iOS, puertos MIDI y Phantom Power y al final obtienes una excelente interfaz, versátil y con un gran sonido que tendrá contento a cualquier usuario no importando cual sea su nivel de experiencia
