Tascam US-1X2HR 1 Mic 2 IN 2 OUT High Resolution Versatile USB Audio Interface for Guitar Vocal Recording

Tascam US-1X2HR 1 Mic 2 IN 2 OUT High Resolution Versatile USB Audio Interface for Guitar Vocal Recording

1 XLR mic input and 1 TRS line/guitar input audio interface with 192 kHz support and USB-C bus power connection. The included loopback function and OBS support makes this interface an excellent choice for podcasts and live streaming. The new US-1x2HR offers simple and intuitive operation, sophisticated looks, a rich assortment of software bundles, and improved audio performance, thanks to the newly enhanced audio circuit.

Natural, crisp & clear sound quality thanks to the implemented Ultra HDDA Mic Preamp with 192 kHz support

High resolution reproduction in the US-HR series has been pursued based on TASCAM's policy to recreate sound as close to the original as possible. Therefore, the in-house developed Ultra HDDA mic preamp combined with a newly improved audio circuit delivers enhanced audio performance with the most transparent and low-noise sound.

Direct monitoring will diverge signals before sending them to the computer, resulting in smooth, in-time monitoring without any sound delay during both recording and performance.

The US-1x2HR can be used with computers or smartphones to easily create podcasts or live streams. The audio can be switched between stereo/mono, and the loopback function allows the audio from the computer to be returned to the streaming software for playback during live streams. US-1x2HR also supports OBS, which is popular and used worldwide.

Capitalizing on our experience being one of the pioneers in manufacturing USB audio interfaces, we achieved further stability in our native driver. The audio buffer size can be set starting from 4 samples (Windows only) to give the best performance to every different environment; maximizing the capability of the computer in use while creating a low-latency environment.

The US-HR models share a solid and practical design intended to withstand long hours of hard use. Its robust metal jacket not only improves its durability but, combined with dye-cast aluminum side panels, provides a sleek, eye-catching design. In addition, all models have just the right weight, so they won't move when cables are connected or disconnected.
