From recording vocal, and guitar stems. Tracking drums. Live monitoring with no latency (assuming you adjust your driver settings) and plugins. It has made countless songs for me already, and I have had no issues. Built like a tank. Would highly recommend UMC style interfaces to any musician seeking the realm of DAW, and plugins.

"Behringer U-PHORIA UMC404HD"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars

A great 4 channel USB interface for the price. The pre-amps are exceptionally quiet. The perfect unit for my home studio. I had to download the latest driver from Behringer in order to get my DAW to recognize the UMC404HD, but no problems after that.

"Good when it works"

Overall: 3 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Worked flawlessly out of the box after driver installation, but it went downhill from there. Driver has flaked on me since. After installing newest driver I can use it in Reaper again, but output only from left channel. Have reached out to customer support, but haven't heard back as of yet. I feel like I've spent more time trouble shooting this interface than recording with it so far. Records decently when it has worked. If I can ever get it working properly again and without issue it will have been money well spent despite the issues. If I can't get it working properly soon I will try a Focusrite interface.

"Buyer Beware"

I've had my UMC404HD since September 2019 and as great as the UMC404HD is, and I've had no complaints until about 6 weeks ago, it doesn't work if your DAW requires ASIO. I had a problem which came up using Ableton Live 10.1 where Live suddenly stopped working (I was no longer able to play the music I had composed, and loading instruments into tracks and anything dealing with sound took "minutes" for Live to perform). Working with Ableton support, they were able to identify my problem and told me I needed to switch to ASIO audi rather than mmx, which is what I was using. I then contacted Behringer since ASIO wasn't working with my UMC404HD. After several emails back and forth, Behringer's support finally admitted that the UMC404HD is not tuned for ASIO and the asio4all driver doesn't work is not supported by Behringer. My computer uses an AMD Rizen 8 core processor. If you're using an Intel processor, I don't know whether you would encounter the same problems. To solve my problem, I had to purchase a different USB audio interface.

Just under 3 years of light use and it will no longer turn on. No misuse, not even a scratch on it. Just died. It was a great budget option when it worked. Can’t recommend this product as I’ve read others have experienced something similar to my situation.

This is completely not compatible with Windows 7. Behringer has LIED in their videos, and they made made several versions to please the FCC. Other versions of Windows have a little more luck. But this is made for MAC. They are dfumping it at 99 bucks. And have had several lawsuits settled out of court already. Stay away from this if you have any WINDOWS OS
