Connectivity

The Volt 476 delivers superior studio sound quality with 24-bit/192 kHz audio conversion and offers more character and tone than any USB interface in its class. It offers 2 x XLR/TRS combo input for instruments and microphones and can provide 48V phantom power. You can connect either a microphone or instrument to each input.

Volt 476 also provides you with 4x Line Outputs and 2x Line Inputs. Line Outputs are 4x balanced analogue line outputs on ¼” jack sockets. You can use TRS jacks for a balanced connection or TS jacks for unbalanced. Line Outputs 1 and 2,  3 and 4 can be used for connecting additional line-level equipment (e.g., outboard FX processors). 2x Line inputs provide balanced analogue line inputs for Channels 3 and 4, on ¼” TRS jack sockets. Connect further line-level signals here using ¼” TRS (balanced) or TS (unbalanced) jack plugs.

Volt 476 features both MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connections. MIDI IN allows you to connect MIDI devices to this jack using a standard 5-pin MIDI cable. This means that you can trigger and control software instruments and effects by connecting devices into this input. MIDI Out is essentially a MIDI output that allows you to output MIDI data from your computer to control other MIDI-compatible hardware devices.

You can also connect your favourite headphones to the 1/4” stereo headphone output. The headphone Volume adjusts the volume of the headphone output.
