"UA Volt 276 Audio Interface"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
All I can say is this was worth the money. I was skeptical at first on buying the UA Volt 276, I watched numerous videos on it and decided this was the unit for my Studio/ Dj setup. The goal was to get pristine clean audio through OBS with my Dj setup. Prior to my purchase I tried the M-Audio AIR 192/6 Audio Interface and was fairly disappointed due to the fact the headphone jack was defective and quality was so so, so it was returned. With the UA Volt 276 Audio Interface I was impressed with the build quality and it was easy getting my Dj setup re-established with this unit. Just the right size and fits perfectly with the other gear on my console. The sound quality is amazing just what I was looking for. The UA Volt 276 once again a little pricey, but worth it!
