PS5に使用するために購入 以下動作確認結果です ・ps5→USB接続可能（PS5本体、DAC共に音量MAXで上げて、まぁ聞ける音量、音量大きめで聞きたい人は物足りないかも） コントローラ出力の音より明らかにクリアでよく聞こえる ・Switch→USB接続可能（音量はうるさいと思えるほどあげること可能） こちらも本体イヤホンジャック出力の音よりクリアな音 ・PC→接続可能（音量は十分） PC本体より明らかにクリアな音 多出力入力に対応してこの価格で音質改善が見込めるのを考えると他の方が評価されるようにコスパ良いと思います 少し残念だったのはps5での音声出力が思ったより音量低めだったことです。（音質は文句無しに良い）

デスクトップPCにスピーカーを接続するために購入しました。 接続してからもう4年ほどになりますが、一度接続した後は外すこともなく、ほぼ放置状態です。それでも今まで一度もトラブルはなく、安定して使えています。こういう機器は一度設置したらあまり触らないので、長期間問題なく動いてくれているのはありがたいです。 音質についても、特に不満はありません。ものすごく音が良くなったというより、普通にクリアに鳴ってくれて、PCとスピーカーの間に入れる機器として十分だと思います。 サイズもコンパクトなのでデスク周りで邪魔になりません。接続してしまえば特に難しい操作もなく、そのまま使えるのもいいところです。USBオーディオ機器として、PCの音を外部スピーカーに出したいという目的ならシンプルで使いやすいと思います。 4年間ほぼ放置で問題なく使えているので、個人的にはかなり信頼できる製品です。高価なオーディオ環境を構築するのでなければ、こういうシンプルな用途には十分だと思います。

問題なく使えました。 値段の割に満足度高めです

Macにはライン出力が無いので、光デジタル出力、アナログ入出力のあるこの商品はニーズに合致し、価格も手頃と思います。 欲を言えば本体が軽いので、ゴム足くらいはついていた方が座りが良いと思います。私は自分で追加しましたが。。 使ってみると、ループバック機能が効いていました。これは二重丸ですね。

DAコンバータとして使用しています。 PCに取り込んだ20Hzから20kHzのサイン波をDA変換してアンプに入力し、歪率特性を計測しています。 外部電源も不要で手軽に使用できます。 エレクトリ社扱いというのも安心材料ですし、日本語の説明書がついているのもおすすめポイントです。

PCのUSB端子につなぐだけで、使えます。私のPCではMIC入力として認識されました。プロパティの詳細で設定を確認する必要がありますが。

先ず、家庭用ゲーム機であるPS5用に幾つか試した中で、PCとPS5何方も今まで入手した中で、アウトプットするデバイスで最高の音質が得られたモノがコチラ。 PCではサウンド関連のコントロールパネルからのオプションの選択が可能で、スピーカーが仮にしょぼいモノでもパワフルさを付与出来ます。 因みにコチラを通常ではhdmi等で音声分離をしないといけないPS5にUSB接続しても、外部のアウトプット音源として認識してくれますし、サウンドに力強さも付与されます。 音質に関しては申し分なく、クチコミで他のパーツも試しに使ってみましたが、どいつもこいつもダメダメで音質の悪さに萎えましたし、hdmiで音声分離させるなど物々しい組み合わせで試してみましたが、流石にケーブルだらけになるのでスマートでは無い！ 光ケーブルのコネクトやRCA(赤白)も本体に接続出来るので音のアウトプットはマルチな使い方が出来ます。 お手持ちのステレオや、外部音源でパワフルなサウンドを奏でたいなら買いですね！ コチラの商品は、現段階において、控えめに言って「最高です！」 今もPCとPS5などに愛用してます。 レビューしてなかったので遅ればせながら評価をさせて頂きました。

I had this item in my wishlist for a long time and finally bought it. Totally worth its price. I use it with Audio Technica M20x monitor headphones and it's a very good combination.

review: Ultra-Low Latency 2 In/2 Out USB/Audio Interface with Digital Output Got this to do a quick and simple job recording vinyls to my laptop. Stereo L/R recording works. sample rate 48khz at 16bit res. Auto detected driver from win10. Matched it with free software Audacity. Initially had trouble recording stereo -- kept recording in mono. Ended up being windows not audacity . The trick for me was to CLOSE software (audacity) then open windows Sound manager -> Recording -> Mic properties -> Advanced -> pick a TWO CHANNEL recording format mode. For some strange reason when the driver auto installed, it picked ONE CHANNEL MONO recording only. And no matter what i did in Audacity, it would only record MONO. This trick allowed me to record in independent L / R channels. I was about to return this product as a defect until i realised this wasnt setup properly by default. Anyway, a few things about this product 1. nice clean simply recording -- i have no complaints. I wouldnt call this the most cleaning audio interface (like my steinberg box) but for the size and portability, its darn good. 2. headphone direct monitoring with no latency -- nice that it has this switch. very handy when youre trying to monitor the recording. 3. Also used as a DAC so you can OUtPUT to the audio interface to send the audio to external amp (via output RCA ) or just headphones from the unit 4. Headphone DAC has a small dial to control volume of headphone monitoring (nice!) for the price, portability, and function, this cannot be beat.

Ottimo prodotto, promesse mantenute a pieno. Su linux (Debian) non è secessario configurare nulla, lo colleghi ed è gia pronto. Lo uso per registrare la mia batteria acustica, lo collego all'uscita RCA di un mixer (Behringer UBB-1002 + set microfoni CAD 5 attivi,2 pan condensarore) e registro sul software Audacity. Il suono esce pulito, ho eliminato tutti i problemi di crepitii e lag della scheda embeded. Collego le anche cuffie per sentire la base e/o metronomo che suona separato dalla registrazione (sorgente audacity) Il cavo USB è sufficientemente lungo da tenere il laptop in posizione comoda rispetto al mixer e alle cuffie. Stavo valutando acquisti molto piu costosi e temevo di dover spendere altri soldi e invece lo portero anche in sala prove per registrare il gruppo.

It's a great little unit, sounds good and does the job it's designed for real well. It you are using it on windows, just check you sound settings for the device as microsoft seems to have decided that a stereo device should be set to mono as it's default, which is real weird as windows knows & tells you it's a stereo microphone but still decides to remix it down to mono if you don't change you sound settings. Other than the windows issues, I've had no problem with the hardware, it's been plugged and unplugged lots of times without an issues. I would happy by any of the Behringer 202 range again.

PS - 28 April 2014. In some of the reviews that I have read some of the correspondents have reported difficulty getting the Behringer UCA202 U Control to record in stereo and some are having difficulty adjusting the volume levels. Sometimes you have to adjust the sound settings in the control panel on a laptop or PC. You have to tell your computer to record in two channels instead of one for stereo. Go into the sounds window and select " Microphone 2 USB codec" with the device plugged in to a USB connexion. Select recording and advanced and set the device to 2 channel CD quality. I use Audacity software. You need to check that Audacity is recording in two channels for stereo recording rather than one channel for mono. You go into "Preferences" which is in the "Edit" menu and then set the USB recording device to stereo in the recording box. If you are having problems setting up the recording volumes then Audacity can be adjusted with the microphone slider which is on the tool bar. This works fine for me with a line level output from my amplifier - I do not use the phono pre-amp from my turntable kit when I record an LP or single. If this fails (or where you do not have a line output from your amp) you could try the headphone output which is usually located on the front of the amplifier. If you turn the amplifier volume control right down then it will attenuate the output level. Using a combination of the Audacity microphone slider and the headphone output you should be able to adjust the volume of the recording level to make sure the recording is loud enough but does not distort. In the view menu you can set Audacity to "show" clipping" . This will display a vertical red line on sections of the recording where the volume levels are too high and therefore the music will sound distorted - this is a very useful tool. I have never used a MAC PC but I would think that it has similar methods of controlling whether you record in stereo or not by using a sound control feature. I would guess that other types of recording software similar to Audacity need to be set up to record and playback in stereo or mono according to your choice. If the above does not work then you are faced with the possibility that some of your equipment is not working correctly from a physical point of view. You could check the connections have been fitted correctly or use alternative equipment to find out what has gone wrong. When set up correctly this product works really well; I am sure you will not be disappointed. Main text: I bought this brilliant device to "digitise" old LPs, which I buy in second hand shops, and archive old audio cassettes before they self destruct. I read all the reviews and I agree with most of them and decided to buy it even though it is of flimsy construction. It is not going to be used very often and I am careful with equipment so it should last years. It literally took me ten minutes to plug it into the line outputs of my amplifier and connect the device to a laptop, then cue up a Beatles 45 and digitise it with Audacity. Audacity is brilliant in my opinion and there is plenty of help text and Wikipedia information to get you going. I deleted the the Beatles 45 file as I just used it to test the recording levels. Next up was a Shadows LP "Rock on with the Shadows in Mono". Yes, you can buy this on CD but sometimes I like to play an ageing LP for old time's sake. I was pleasantly surprised with the results. I did not use Audacity to remove any surface noise from the record or clicks or pops; Hank's twanging drowns them out anyway. I played the digital recording back through the same amplifier and neither my wife nor I could hear any difference from the original: it sounded the same warts and all. At the end of the "first side" I felt compelled to jump up and turn the laptop er, record over. What more can I say about the sound quality? This was great stuff - the Shadows back in their 1960's glory, and you cannot damage the needle when you jive. One of the reviewers has complained about the the inability of the analogue converter to sample at 24 bit 96 KHz (24/96) as it is limited to 16 bit 48 KHz. This might affect you if you are mastering music and you want to keep the noise floor down when mixing lots of "takes". So, I take the point. For me, digitising old recordings at 16/44.1 or at red book CD standard is good enough. I fail to see how using a 24/96 sampling rate could improve the sound quality as I am only doing one "take". If you are only going to use this converter to digitise your records you can save yourself money and some disk space by buying this device. I have got plenty of external DACs, so I do not need to use this device for playback from a laptop or PC but I tested it just the same. The Toslink optical output works really well and so do the line outputs. The headphone amplifier is not so good but it is sufficient for my purposes. If you are on the road this device will probably perform better than your laptop's sound card or headphone output. The Behringer does not perform as well as the rinky dink DAC that I have got in my main HI-FI and I could not expect it to. But, it performs well compared to my other portable DACs. There is no Toslink input facility. Pros :- You can use a laptop for line output sources. You no longer have to use the line inputs of a desktop PC. You can connect it to a USB port on the front rather than fiddle about with connecting line outputs to the input connexions on the back of the PC. This is especially useful if your kit is under a desk. You can take your laptop to your HI-FI equipment rather than the other way round. There is no need to unplug your turntable or cassette player etc. and then plug it all back in again. It is small, very portable and very versatile - an ADC and DAC in one box! Cons: None really unless you are going to subject the device to hard and continuous use. In conclusion: Five stars for sonic performance and overall convenience; it is simply brilliant . But, it gets only three stars for build quality. The USB deck can now be given away.
