Behringer U-Phoria UMC204HD Audiophile 2x4, 24-Bit/192 kHz USB Audio/MIDI Interface with Midas Mic Preamplifiers

It is very very good. I have checked it three times. There is no problem with the sound. It is very good

Worth for money

Nice product

Works right out of the box, no issues! Sound quality and features are very good value for money.

It is among the best audio interface in the msrket. Sound quality is crisp and without noise as well as preamp is also of good quality. 5 pin midi in/out is another positive factor for external midi device. Insert and A B monitors are plus points. Above all the mono and stereo button works well.It would have been better if it had a digital signal display.

Quality is ok but we are paying exactly double the money which is sold in other countries, it sis sold for $80 in every pther countries, or max 6000INR, but its sold in India fro 10000 INR, that is really high, almost 50% of the price/ Its Mrp is $119 or 7666Inr, but we are paying 10000 here, more than the MRP, this is the condition of India right now. Jago grahak, Jago!

It has got everything what you need now and in future. Midas preamps are impressive, dac is also good.

Strange! First of all USB cable is not included. And it really seems after unboxing, the product is pretty old or used one.

I'm an audiophile using the Behringer UMC204HD with Windows 10 Pro for converting my huge collection of LP's to digital formats (literally a retirement project). The following information may be useful to someone finding the docs a bit sparse or who is using an audio interface such as this for the first time. 1 - The two front inputs are MONO (studio microphones being catered for) but can be used as Left/Right stereo pair. You'll need an adaptor on each input to accommodate RCA connectors or for a stereo mini-plug. The mini will require a splitter (check your drugstore or supermarket electronics dept.) to provide independent L/R. It would have been nice if they'd included RCA sockets. Note you have what amounts to only ONE analog stereo input on this unit. That's enough for me but maybe not some others. 2 - You must first download and install the Behringer drivers. Unlike Soundblaster Extigy and possibly some other units of this type, it will not work with Windows Classic Wave Driver. You'll have poke around for the drivers at the Behringer site. Installation is a no-brainer. Unzip the download, run the executable and you are done. You'll also need a sound recording/playback application. Behringer claims you are entitled to a free copy of "Tracktion" but I couldn't find it. Anyway, I have Soundforge and there are plenty of others, over a wide range of prices. Once the drivers are installed it's a good idea to unplug the UMC204HD, then plug it back in. Also, restart the application if you had launched it already. 3 - The Line/Inst button, when depressed, engages a microphone amp. You won't need this for standard line inputs. 4 - Works great with Soundforge Pro 12 and previous versions. You must first go into Soundforge Options/Preferences/Audio and manually choose "UMC ASIO Driver" (after installing the driver) for proper routing of Input/Playback channels. Takes just a few seconds. You will probably have to do this with other software too and possibly every time it is launched. 5 - Documentation could be better. It would be especially helpful having explanations for how to accomplish various recording/playback tasks. They seem to think everyone knows the audio industry lingo, acronyms and practices. At this price, a lot of amateurs will be interested and many could probably use some help. 6 - Takes all power from the USB bus. If you have other USB powered devices on the same controller you could run out of juice. A simple, inexpensive solution ... get a USB power dongle or power bar with a USB socket at any place that sells electronics, computers or even hardware. My supermarket has them. 7 - Takes some digging to find technical specs. On instruments in my lab looks excellent. I couldn't find any audible shortcomings with flat frequency response and vanishingly low distortion (no distortion figures in the docs). Even with inputs turned up almost all the way with no sources connected, you still get noise around 90dB down, which is inaudible. I measure a small amount of cross-talk but you'll never hear that either. I have used pro audio gear over the years and this unit is in that class of performance. Some recordists will want more inputs/outputs. Behringer has bigger units but, of course, you pay more.

La verdad es que antes de comprarla vi muchos 'reviews' en YouTube y al ver muchas opiniones muy buenas es que me animé a comprarla, y honestamente ¡descubrí que se quedaron cortos! Es un producto excelente y de primera calidad que como profesional recomiendo ampliamente. ¡No lo pienses más!

I picked up the Behringer UMC204HD for my secondary setup, mainly for work meetings and high-resolution music listening. While my main rig boasts a Focusrite Solo Gen 4, this little Behringer has pleasantly surprised me with its performance and value. Why the Behringer Shines: Simple Setup, Stellar Sound: The Behringer was a breeze to set up on my Windows laptop. No fuss, no muss, just plug it in and go. The audio quality, especially for high-resolution music, is impressive. Feature-Rich, Budget-Friendly: For my needs, the Behringer's feature set is more than enough. It handles my XLR microphone flawlessly and delivers pristine audio to my headphones and speakers. And let's not forget the price tag - it's a steal! No Frills, Just Performance: Unlike the Focusrite, the Behringer doesn't come with a bunch of software that I don't need. It's a no-nonsense audio interface that just works. A Word of Caution: I've tried other budget audio interfaces, like the M-Audio 192-4, and had a frustrating experience with driver issues on Windows 10. If you're looking for a reliable, plug-and-play solution, the Behringer UMC204HD is the way to go. Bottom Line: If you're not a music producer and just need a solid audio interface for everyday tasks, the Behringer UMC204HD is an excellent choice. It's affordable, easy to use, and delivers high-quality audio.

I am setting up a small music workstation/recording outfit for my kids at home. Setup with this box was extremely easy, worked from the get-go. Played very well with Windows (WDM) system sound- no problems, just worked. I was leery of buying this box because the specs seemed too good to be true. That and a hit and miss past with Behringer products. As of late though, I've been quite impressed with the new products they're putting out. This is no exception. The build quality isn't only as good as much more expensive products, but it exceeds them. The chassis is a very sturdy metal, really chunky and solid (which is good). The knobs, while plastic, are also solid and attached to incredibly smooth pots. Honestly, you'd be hard pressed to find a smoother throw on a knob in any product, regardless of price. I am a professional musician/producer and own audio interface products by Apogee, RME, Motu, Presonus, and Avid. As far as build quality, this box is on par. My limited experience with the sound quality of this box thus far leaves me with the impression that the box is certainly adequate if not excellent. The mic pres are clean with plenty of gain. The conversion is also clean and absolutely not getting in the way of creativity or a great performance. Beyond build and sound quality, one of my biggest concerns with this box was latency as I am setting up a workstation that will be primarily built around virtual instruments (VSTi's) and Cubase. I currently have the ASIO latency buffer set at 64 and that's producing about 6-7ms of round trip latency. When playing virtual instruments it's about half that. The box also has a playback/monitor mix knob for zero latency monitoring when recording live instruments/voice. So far the latency performance is excellent and has far exceeded my expectations. Bottom line: You won't come close to finding something this well built and functional among any of the lower priced audio interfaces. The value for what you're getting is amazing.
