The Roland UA33 Tri-Capture recording interface is notable not only for the unique mixer-style design that should prove perfect for portable and desktop editing, but for the input options that are offered at this price.
The three inputs – instrument (with Hi Z option), XLR and stereo AUX – allow you to hook any audio sources, microphones and guitars etc you need to the Roland UA33 Tri-Capture interface, and use the built-in REC MODE feature to shuffle through numerous different recording scenarios. It’s a quick and easy way to be immediately ready to record, rather than having to click through too many menus.
There are balanced 1/4 TRS outputs and a headphone out, and the layout of the UA33’s control knobs will make any engineer feel at home, laid out as they would be on a mixing desk and professionally smooth to work with.
The whole unit is USB bus powered, and is capable of recording through that connection at 24-bit/96kHz, so you can be assured of a serious audio quality and low latency operation too, which means you can be confident in delivering your music without any problems.
A LOOP BACK function allows looping of an audio source playing on your computer straight back into your DAW for recording, which means that should you be looking to create your own webcasts, live streams or videos, then this feature coupled with the low latency makes the Roland UA33 perfect for the job.
Whether you’re looking to track audio alone or work with A/V, it’s a professional, slick recording interface.
