Our next-generation converters have been designed to deliver an optimised dynamic range, ensuring you hear the most honest and natural translation of your recording.

Start Connecting

Equipped with two Optical input and output connectors, iD44 gives you plenty of options for expansion. Supporting both ADAT and SPDIF, iD44 enables you to add up to 16 channels of mic pres to your setup - perfect for bigger sessions or tracking a live band.

Capture ideas fast!

As well as offering you 4 channels of mic pre, iD44 has two harmonically rich JFET D.I inputs designed to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier. Simply plug in your guitar, bass or synth whenever inspiration strikes and start recording instantly.

Endless possibilities

Two fully balanced insert points enable you to integrate your outboard gear prior to conversion, letting you quickly insert your favourite compressors, vintage mic pres or EQs. The insert return also gives you direct access to the analogue to digital converters - providing the cleanest signal path possible, making it great for print-backs or integrating outboard analogue line-level sources. Whether you’re creating vocal chains or processing stems iD44 gives you the flexibility you need.

Comfort, clarity, confidence

Get the most out of your headphones and your artist with iD44’s advanced headphone amp technology. Whether you’re tracking an artist or working on a mix, iD44’s two stereo headphone amps have been designed to provide enough power for your headphones to perform to their highest potential. Set up two separate cue mixes through iD44s independent stereo outputs, each driven by their own DAC - giving you incredible depth and accuracy at all times.

Hardware for your software

With a touch of a button, iD44’s volume encoder becomes a virtual scroll wheel, enabling you to take control of your DAW, plug-in parameters and more - just like you’re adjusting a piece of hardware. Quickly dial-in settings, adjust faders or even write in automation without spending hours staring at a screen.

Power of Simplicity

Taking inspiration from our heritage in analogue console design, iD44 features a range of flexible monitor control functions including dedicated talkback, cut and dim buttons along polarity, mono, speaker select and cue mix monitoring.

All monitoring functions can be assigned to three programmable function buttons. No more time spent searching for software controlled features or scrolling through menus, just assign the monitoring functions you need and quickly take control of your session. Real hardware control at your fingertips.

The software you can rely on

iD44’s all-new mix focused software the iD Mixer has been designed with simplicity and elegance in mind. Create up to four stereo artist cue mixes, name and customise channels, save layout presets, assign hardware function buttons, quickly set up advanced routing, use presets in standalone mode and more. Tightly integrating hardware and software, the iD Mixer makes the recording process easy giving you total control and reliability where you need it most.

Quality deserves protection

Unlike many interfaces on the market, iD44 has an all-metal construction, meaning it will stand up to those countless late nights in the studio and days on the road.

From its hand-finished aluminium knobs to its high-grade component selection, iD44 matches professional sound with precision engineering and the end result is stunning.

USB Connection

iD44 comes with both a standard USB cable and a USB Type-C cable enabling you to connect to any USB compatible Mac or PC supporting USB 2.0 or above.
