About this deal

The EVO interface comes complete with a professional software bundle including premium-grade plugins to get you started straight out of the box. Features The Monitor Mix switch allows you to easily blend your input signal with your DAW output so you can play along and record with your songs Quality of the sound is amazing, preamps are close in quality to my RME Fireface UC and the drivers are really solid (I'm on windows). Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty Want to grow your studio business? Invest in Audient. – Audient on Audient keeps Lito’s Place on Top of Film Work

As well as the EVO 8 itself, you'll also get access to a library of industry-standard software, providing you the essential tools needed to get recording from the outset. Features One of the most unique and groundbreaking features of the interface is "Smartgain Mode". Once you start playing or singing with Smartgain Mode, the interface will automatically adjust the levels of your microphones, so you can avoid clipping and distortion. It will even match and adjust gain to both channels at the same time for added versatility. This makes the recording process easier than ever before, eliminating the need to adjust levels manually. This is perfect for beginners and professionals alike, streamlining your workflow. Detailed, warm sound with EVO mic preamps When it arrived, it worked fine at first. Then a bug hit me where the interface wouldn’t be detected by Windows after hibernating, so I attempted to reinstall the drivers - a HUGE mistake to say the least. On paper this seemed pretty much perfect- a compact interface with 4 inputs, smart gain, from a seemingly reliable manufacturer and for not that huge of a price!We are delighted to partner with Rational Acoustics in integrating our huge selling EVO 2, 4 and 8 channel audio interfaces into the Smaart v9 platform,” says Audient Marketing Director Andy Allen. “With EVO’s ability to digitally control the interface’s gain, phantom power and polarity via our EVO Control app running on users’ laptops and now with Smaart’s embedded integration, we’re providing a new, intuitive workflow for Smaart users everywhere. Indeed, a Gain Changing solution.” Audient ask (rather than claim): is this ‘the world’s smartest audio interface?’. Maybe we can answer that for them… Needed more inputs (stereo for acoustic guitar and another input for vocal mic) and this did the job perfectly. This is the ideal solution for this scenario as ADAT is a bit glitchy in my experience

The audio quality of the Evo 4 is very good. Yes, it’s true that most audio interfaces sound good these days but to my ears Evo has that Audient quality sound that I know and love" You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail. A more angled top would have suited us more, but then the ID range never had this so it’s curious as to why EVO brings this to our attention!Input recording is also exemplary, helped a little with a Smart Gain feature that helps you set levels, although to be fair you don’t really need it as such (see below for more on this). A series of smart systems enhance the EVO 8 further - making the recording process a fun and headache-free process. For example, Smartgain mode sets the levels of your inputs automatically while you sing or play. This helps to prevent clipping and distortion and stops your performances from being too quiet. It's also possible to adjust the gain of every channel at once, resulting in a perfect auditory match. EVO by Audient announces the arrival of EVO SP8, an eight channel Smart Preamp with AD/DA. Billed as the perfect expander for your audio interface, SP8 is the newest addition to the EVO range. Low-latency, customisable software mixer - route outputs/inputs, apply phantom power, configure headphone mixes, set sound levels and more. However, the LED ring’s position encircling the central control knob on the flat top of the device means that if you push it further than a foot away, the knob begins to obscure the LEDs. An angled top would avoid this but undoubtedly increase the price.

Bigger sessions demand more channels and expanding your existing audio interface via ADAT might be the most cost-effective solution to scale up your studio,” says Audient/EVO marketing director, Andy Allen. “SP8 does exactly that, giving you eight studio quality analogue preamps, a modern and intuitive user experience with exceptional audio performance across the board.” MusicRadar verdict: We’re seeing bigger recording names on cheaper and cheaper interfaces, and Audient’s is a great entry to the market.

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. The EVO 8 employs a streamlined and intuitive design with one-button controls. It also provides powerful controls including smart touchpoints to adjust your speaker, headphone and channels from a single knob. I don't see the point in buying more expensive interfaces than this, I compared this to my Clarett... haha. I sold the Clarett. In all, the Evo 8 is an excellent and full-featured interface, especially for the price. If you’re a podcaster, streamer, bedroom musician, or any combination thereof, we can’t recommend this interface highly enough. Key Features The compact and portable design makes the EVO perfect for musicians on the move. Whether you’re recording vocals for your latest song or podcasting with friends on the go, the EVO is the perfect choice. It’s even USB powered, meaning you don’t have to bother with tedious power supplies, just plug it in and you’re ready to go.
