Audient iD14 MKII Interface áudio USB

Audient iD14 MKII — Console-Grade Recording in a Desktop Package

The Audient iD14 MKII is a 10-in/6-out USB-C audio interface built around the same fully analogue, discrete mic preamp circuit found in Audient's flagship ASP8024-HE recording console. Two Audient Console Mic Preamps deliver 68 dB of clean, low-noise gain with classic analogue warmth. The Audient iD14 MKII is the right choice for project studio owners and home recording musicians who need console-grade preamps and ADAT expandability without a rack of outboard gear.

What Sets This Interface Apart

The Audient Console Mic Preamp is a discrete, all-analogue design descended directly from the ASP8024-HE console — no emulations, no digital copies. Combined with 32-bit ESS AD/DA converters delivering 126 dB of DAC dynamic range, the unit captures and reproduces audio with clarity that competes with interfaces costing several times more. The configurable iD button assigns DIM, CUT, Polarity Reverse, Mono Sum, Talkback, or Cue Mix monitoring on the fly.

Inputs and Preamps

Two combo XLR/TRS inputs accept microphones or line-level signals, while a front-panel 6.3 mm JFET instrument input replicates the input stage of a classic valve amplifier. Both preamp channels deliver 48 V phantom power independently.

• Number of Preamps: 2 Audient Console Mic Preamps — discrete analogue design with 68 dB clean gain
• Phantom Power: 48 V per channel, delivered independently per channel even on USB bus power
• JFET Instrument Input on the front panel replicates the input stage of a classic valve amplifier for harmonically rich DI tracking of guitar and bass

Conversion and Digital Expansion

Recording at up to 96 kHz / 24-bit, the 32-bit ESS converters deliver 126 dB DAC and 120 dB ADC dynamic range. The optical input accepts both ADAT and S/PDIF, adding up to 8 extra preamp channels via an outboard expander.

• Sample Rate: up to 96 kHz at 24-bit resolution
• Digital Inputs: ADAT and S/PDIF (optical) — expand to 10 inputs via external preamp
• Dynamic Range of 126 dB on the DAC and 120 dB on the ADC, class-leading headroom that exposes subtle mix details and problematic noise issues faster

Outputs, Monitoring, and Build

Four balanced 6.3 mm line outputs support two sets of monitors for A/B mix translation. Two independent headphone outputs (6.3 mm and 3.5 mm) drive headphones up to 600 ohms. The all-metal chassis measures just over 17 cm wide.

• Line Outputs: 4 balanced 6.3 mm jacks
• Headphone Outputs of 6.3 mm and 3.5 mm jacks with a dedicated amp stage capable of driving headphones up to 600 ohms, including demanding models like the Sennheiser HD 650
• USB-C bus powered with an all-metal chassis measuring just over 17 cm wide — no external PSU required, fits in a backpack for mobile recording
