Nice to have a video for those at entry level, or for those returning to recording after a very long break. Clear and simple, no confusing jargon or terminology. Was looking at buying this product to help me get back in to things.
This is a case where I would say, don't waste your money on the UMC22 unless the 16 bit, and the features are exactly what you want. But if you are unsure of your needs, for $30 more, the UMC202HD is well worth it and the much better choice. Not only does it give you 24 bit, but also both inputs are Mic, Line, and Instrument selectable (i.e. you can do stereo mics, or stereo line in like from a stereo synth), pad on those inputs (more input range), and there are separate volume controls for main and headphone out, which you will quickly wish you had if using both headphones and monitor speakers regularly. It is often said, buy it right the first time and you won't have to buy again later. The UMC202HD fits that minimum requirement for most purposes where you need only 2 inputs. The UMC22 does not. Have a little more money? Get the UMC404HD - 4 ins/outs, MIDI in/out, send/return loops, A/B monitor switching.
Absolutely nailed it with the ‘people will listen to it because it’s a great song.’ - so many great songs have terrible recordings and no one cares. If you put the same attention into your songs as you do into making it sound ‘professional’ you could record it on an iPhone and still get a following.
My gf has one, uses it with a Zoom ZDM-1 mic for her own youtube channel, for gaming with discord, and for video calling. I have the UMC404HD, as well as a Zoom U-22. All 3 are great for the way they are used.
I also have the XM8500; I actually have 2 of them, lol. Also have a BA 85A and SB 78A, along with a Nady SCM 960 and a Zoom ZDM-1. The only decently expensive mics I own are my Sennheiser e609 and my SM57. I have more invested in recording guitar and bass cabs and acoustic guitar than I do in vocals, despite being a vocalist first and guitar/bass player 2nd, lol.
I haven’t used the m track solo so I can’t comment. I think the specs are pretty much the same so I’d say go with whatever is cheaper. The m audio has a decent software bundle and the Behringer gets you Waveform OEM which include the collective synth. Go with whichever one you think will fit your needs best.
@@prodbyfatur hey man, since you have one of these. The audio from the headphones, is that mic/instrument audio only or does it pass the audio from the pc too? looking to hook a podmic and a pair of DT-770 Pros to my pc, already getting the UMC22 for the podmic, just need a solution for the DT-770 Pros and the 250 Ohms they need.
@Faturahman Syah My friend you really help me with this comment, I need buy another interface, I usually used the Alesis i0 2 but in these days... she quit the work jaja. I´m Trying to fix the problem, but if need money to do that, I preffer buy the Umc22, I love M-Audio but this time I need the sound more clean, my proyect is adquire a Presonus with a KORG synth and guittar.
Glad you enjoyed it. I have no affiliation with Behringer, so it's just an honest review from a guy that bought the interface and what I think of it today. I just want to help people make music. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Great review..Thanks for the video. I want to record 3.5 mm audio input to my PC. I am not satisfied with the default mother board audio input. Which audio interface will give best results for my requirements. Please suggest.
I can't remember exactly how I got it now. But I think I had to register the interface on the Music Tribe website and then there were details about getting the Tracktion DAW. I think I had to email someone to request the code and then the code arrived fairly quickly.
is 16bit vs 24bit and 48hzvs 192hz noticeable? is it worth getting over the scarlett solo which is almost twice the price as I plann to use it just for voiceovers
For voiceovers it likely won’t be noticeable. But if you are doing voiceovers for a company or plan to do them for another company they may request the audio to be recorded at 24 bit 48khz. But if you are just doing this for yourself, you likely won’t notice a difference.
@@AudioTechTV oh yes; hoping to get one for my online tutorials, I recently bought some sound card but that didn't work to my taste until I found your video, gonna try that device soon
Hi! Thank you for all the info. I have a question. I'm making a home studio for voice over jobs and I'm thinking about getting this interface. Do you know if it's compatible with the MacOS Big sur version? I'm looking everywhere, I'm not finding any clear info and I don't want to purchase and then find out I cannot using with my laptop. Thank you so much
Hey! 3:20 . Is the sound on 250ohms distorted or muffled? Im thinking getting a pair of dt990s and can't decide if its worth getting an amp like the ha400
I've noticed that the $49 interfaces are all pretty much the same. They have different exteriors and the mic preamp is likely different but the specs are pretty much the same and I'm sure they will sound pretty much the same. Both M-Audio and Behringer make decent quality budget gear. I haven't tested out the M-Track Solo yet but I'm sure it will be very similar in sound to the UMC22. Now my take on cheaper usb mics vs an audio interface and microphone. I would go with the cheap audio interface and microphone. The Fifine K669 is a decent cheap USB mic but I like the idea of having an interface because then I can change up the microphone and have more variety and different mics for different things. For USB mics the really good ones cost $199 and up. And again you're stuck with that one sound. I use the Shure MV51 in pretty much every video I do. It's a USB mic and in my opinion it sounds great. I use it for 1 thing, just my videos. For everything else I use an audio interface and microphone as different things need different mics. So if you're purchasing a USB mic for one thing and you know that mic does a great job at that one thing then go for it but if you like variety (or have a microphone addiction like me) then you might want to get an interface with microphones. You can always keep those mics and upgrade your interface later on. WOW that was a long response. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Grab the driver from this video th-cam.com/video/xRmnDkS3Wzo/w-d-xo.html it’s the old Asio driver that works much better then Asio4all. The link is in the description of that video.
I was wondering, would this work well with other kinds of software? for example Discord or Zoom? (especially Discord) I mostly want to know if people on the other side hear you from one side of the headphones or maybe too low, etc Thanks for the content!
Yes it runs on Windows 10. I haven’t had any noise issues with it. If you crank the mic gain all the way full then you will hear some noise but that is true with pretty much every interface.
hi im planning to get an audio interface, but im kinda confused that should i spend a little more money for focusrite or get this Behringer for cheaper budget? I intend to make music
You can make music with this one or the Focusrite. This one is 16 bits audio and the Focusrite interfaces can do 16 bit or 24 bit plus higher sample rates which you may not get into. The Focusrite drivers are better in my opinion. Which can give you lower latency but I’ve made music with the Behringer interface and latency wasn’t a big issue for me. The Behringer interface is a decent budget option to get started with but if you get more into this hobby, you will likely want to upgrade later on. If you go with a Focusrite interface then you can stick with it as you get more into the hobby unless you decide that you need more inputs or outputs. When you make music, you’re the only one that knows what interface was used. No one is going to listen and say “that was recorded on a Behringer or Focusrite”. If you make a great song it won’t matter what you recorded it on.
@ thanks alot for this useful opinion 🙏🙏 also im kinda picky when considering the micro for recording, im not really sure what aspect should i consider or should i invest in them rather than interface
You can connect monitors to this. If they are powered studio monitors this will be enough. If they aren’t powered then you will need an amplifier between the monitors and the interface.
If you’re just plugging your guitar directly into the audio interface and using an amp sim the UMC22 should be good enough. If you’re recording a mic up to a cabinet the solo will give you better quality but it may not be too noticeable. If you’re just having fun and maybe recording some demo songs at home the UMC22 can deliver quality recordings. But the Solo will give you 24 but recordings and some people may prefer the mic preamp onThe solo but it’s all a preference thing. The Midas preamp on the UMC22 is decent.
Hey, thanks for the video! I have an amp which has a XLR out and cab sim but not a headphone jack. I heard that the best way to fix that is to connect the DI out into an interface and then just run the headphones into that. Will this do the job? If it's worth getting the other more expensive interface I will but just for the headphones it kinda seems a big ask for an extra £60 so I'm wondering if just for that, it won't really matter and getting a more expensive one would just be a waste. And how will it work if I have the amp slightly breaking up? Thanks again :)
If the output is not powered this will work. Meaning that output is not meant to power a cabinet or speaker. Also if the output is line level, which it might be if it has a cabinet sim, you may not need the DI. The DI is meant to bring signals up to line level so if it’s already outputting at line level the DI will be redundant. If you’re just using this for the headphones you can go with any interface really. The more expensive ones will be overkill. If you plan on recording then you may want to grab something that is at least 24 bit. As for the break up. If you can get the break up in the preamp stage and then control the output volume that would be ideal that way you’re not overloading the interface which would sound terrible. If you need to crank the output of the amp to get the desired break up then what you might want to get is a load box. The load box would connect to the powered speaker output of your amp and then connect to your audio interface. It acts like the cabinet and will accept the full power of your amp and then filter it out to a level that your audio interface can handle. So you could have everything dimed and still get a decent input level.
Great video thank you for the shared knowledge! Can you please tell me what the "direct monitor" is for? I just use the umc22 for recording games on OBS. Any suggestions for settings?
If you can’t use your instrument input, you can try installing the driver from this video th-cam.com/video/xRmnDkS3Wzo/w-d-xo.html it’s 64 bit only though. I use that driver and can use both inputs.
Extreme budget mic would be Behringer xm8500. A bit higher budget mic would be Shure SM57. Even higher budget Shure SM7b. These mics can handle very loud sources and they do well with vocals.
Hey, I'm sorry for a very noobie question, but does Mic/Line1 mean I cannot give a instrument input in this connector? Basically, my question is can i connect 2 intruments at the same time to this interface?
The line input has a different impedance level compared to an instrument input. You can connect an instrument to it and see how it sounds. If you think it sounds ok then go for it. Another option would be to grab a DI and then you can connect your guitar to the DI and the DI will go into the line/mic input. That would be ideal. The Behringer DI400p is pretty affordable and sounds decent.
Is your digital piano stereo or mono? If it's stereo you should look at the UMC202HD. It's just a bit more but will allow you to connect left and right line inputs.
@@AudioTechTV Thanks for your answer. The only output that I have on my digital piano is a mini headphone jack which can also be used as a line out (so I think is stereo (?), and my plan was to use an audio interface to record the audio an so monitoring the sound trought the headphones connected to the audio inteface too (I don't have space for a dedicate speaker and anyway I just need a decent recording - not professional)... Which Audio Interface would you recommend? Thanks
I have had decent results with the XM8500 and the UMC22. The XM8500 needs quite a bit of gain and the UMC22 can give it that gain as long as you have a strong voice going into it. If you have a softer voice (quieter) you might want to look at getting a condenser mic.
If your midi keyboard is USB then you connect that to your computer and connect the umc22 to your computer as well then connect your monitors to the Umc22 and you’ll hear whatever is playing through the monitors.
hey, i dont care that much about recording but i start making beats and i want to get better sound because i think my soundcard on my laptop is not the best, is it the right interface for me ? or still buy something else ? thank you if you answer :D
If you aren’t recording anything then y9y won’t really need an audio interface unless you want to connect some studio monitors and other studio gear. But if you are just using loops and samples the audio interface won’t help your sound. If you record midi beats then an interface can help with latency so your timing will be better but if that’s what you want I recommend looking at a Focusrite or Audient interface as they have better latency.
Is it worth getting ultragain mic2200 with this ? Already found a good deals on used nearby. Is the inst plug can only connect instrument stuff with it ? Or i can bypass that with the preamp ?
I’ve used the Behringer xm8500 with this interface. You need to crank the gain almost full. The XM8500 needs a lot of gain. You may want to look into getting a condenser mic. They require less gain so you can turn them up louder. With the XM8500 if you’re recording speaking then you want to be right up close to it. If you’re signing you want to sing nice and loud.
Request to please guide on how to setup with an android mobile. I purchased it but unable to make it to work tried open camera third party app. I need to record both video and decent quality audio. I should be able to use both inputs at the same time. Appears like the 2nd input has low gain although it's set to maximum.
I have the dt 770 pro 250 ohms, bought them last week n have them plugged into the same interface…the headphones are pretty distorted when listening to anything hip hop or 808 related… I’m really disappointed, they’re great for any genre that doesn’t use hard hitting bass.
Same experience here even with the 80ohm DT770's ... They do get pretty loud but overall not as good of a combo as my old Xonar DG sound card + Samson SR850 which was so cheap. Disappointing.
So it should be able to work with the Adam audio t7v monitors right? It should power my dt770 80ohms fine too I’m guessing. And the mic input should be good enough in case I want to get a budget mic in the future, right?
You can connect connect your monitors no problem. It powers my DT770 250 ohm headphones without any issues so it will power the 80ohm version no problem. And the mic preamp is decent. I’ve used it with the xm8500 mic which is very budget friendly and it sounds decent. I’ve also used it with an sm7b and sm57 plus a couple of condenser mics without any issues. The preamp is pretty transparent.
@@AudioTechTV I see, thank you. Biggest reason I wanted it for is for the monitors. If i can use a mic in the future and they power my headphones decently, that’s a nice bonus!
I have a question, So, I want to use this for twitch streaming and I use the OBS. But regardless of that, I want to hear the game (my computer audio) and my own voice in the headphones. Now if I connect my headphones and turn on the direct monitor button, will I be able to hear both from the headphones?
You don’t need an activation code to use the umc22. It’s actually plug and play. Just plug it in and it installs a basic driver. If you want an Asio driver you can use Asio4all or there is also a Behringer Asio driver for it.
@@AudioTechTV I’m wanting to start live streaming dj sets and looking for an audio interface that won’t break the bank as I’m just starting into the world of streaming. Do my speakers need to be plugged into my mixer (as they are XLR) or do they need to be plugged into the audio interface with Jack cables for the this to work?
Some mics require more gain then others. First make sure you’re using an xlr to xlr mic cable not an xlr to 1/4” cable. Then you might want to try and project your voice a little more. So the input is louder. Another option would be to purchase a Fethead or cloudlifter which adds clean gain so you can lower the gain on your interface. I use a Fethead now and it works very well. The good thing about it is you can use it with any dynamic mic so even if you decide to get another mic later, the Fethead or cloudlifter will work with it as well.
Guys, I've had this for a while. One issue I have had is not having multiple programs audio output since it uses asio4all as a default driver. Is there any work around for this..?
Don’t use Asio4all lol. But if you must use it then go into your windows sound settings and find the Behringer device in there. It might be called something else when you just have the default windows driver installed (I think audio codec). In the playback tab for that device go to properties and then click on the advanced tab and under the exclusive mode area, make sure “allow applications to take exclusive control of this device” is unchecked. Then click apply and you may want to do the same thing in the recording tab too.
Hello, I have a question I am a drummer and use yamaha dtx multipad 12 The device has 2 stereo outputs on the right and left Is it possible to connect the pads to the sound card? And the sound card to my computer To record me as a drummer? Thanks .
Hey Zane, amazing informations and advices here! I am really thinking about purchasing this one since it's my first audio interface. I need it just to mess around with the guitars and keyboards in DAW. Should this baby work fine with: FL Studio, ASIO4ALL, Windows XP, passive Fender Jazz bass. I am not expecting pro studio sound, I just don't want super irritating latency, distorted sounds and unwanted noise. Thanks alot and keep make these awesome vids! ❤️
We are looking at getting this to use for our live feed. Do you happen to have a video showing how to hook it up to a Behringer digital sound mixer. Coming off of a output going into the Behringer audio interface and into computer. I don't know what output off of the board to use and how to set that up.
If you're connecting it to a mixer, I recommend spending about $30 more and getting the Behringer UM202HD. It has 2 line inputs or mic preamps so you can connect a stereo mixer into it. The UMC22 only has 1 mic preamp or line input and you can connect one side of the mixer to the instrument input but it's not going to give you the greatest quality.
@@AudioTechTV Well after watching another video of yours, you mentioned your mixer having an audio interface built-in so I searched to see if ours did too. We have the Behringers x32 and it appears that it has it built-in. I just got to set it up now after I buy a USB printer cable. I hope that works. Currently, our sound is routed to our ATEM production switcher, out the HDMI output, and into our capture card. That is how we are getting audio to the computer. It isn't really bad but it seems when someone is signing, all you hear is highs and no mid or bass. It isn't full. So I am thinking sending straight to the computer from the board will be a big improvement.
@PandaBewok it does. To use it with this interface you need a nice quiet room and crank the gain max plus speak fairly close to it. You can also get a Fethead or cloudlifter and use that with it then you can reduce the gain. I think I used a Fethead when I did this video but i used this combo without it. For quite a while and it was fine.
hello i just received this audio interface, but when using it it consistently disconnects and connects and i was wondering if this is a driver issue or usb
@@blueprintstech5638 all audio interfaces will suffer from latency. To reduce the amount of latency you should either install the Asio driver for the UMC22 or install Asio4all and use that. Then in your daw go into the audio settings and make sure the driver type is set to Asio and select Asio4all or whatever driver you installed as the device. Then you will see a control panel button click that and you can try lowering the buffer size. I show how to setup Asio4all here th-cam.com/video/4kuZsklrm-0/w-d-xo.html The lower the buffer size, the lower the latency. But not all audio interfaces and computers can handle the lowest option so you may need to play around to find the best setting for your setup.
Both are pretty much the same. The UMC22 is just slightly better due to the metal casing and the mic preamp is a little bit brighter. As for DAW it’s whichever one you prefer. Waveform OEM comes with these interfaces and it’s a great DAW. You can also try Cakewalk it’s free.
can i use this to route audio output from a mac DAW (via USB) to the PA system? 'was thinking of pairing it with a portable logic pro setup and using it just for audio output
Yes you can use the rear outputs on this to go direct into a PA. Or you could also use the headphone output to go into the PA whatever works best for you.
You can connect it to an iPhone but you need the iPhone camera adapter and a powered USB hub. I have connected it this way and it works. I’ve tried without the powered usb hub or camera adapter and it did not work that way..
@@rayzzingthebar I’m not familiar with that one but I just had a quick look at it and it appears that it doesn’t have a XLR input which means no mic preamp. Therefore your mic won’t sound as good or you would need to purchase an external mic preamp to go with it.
That could be caused from having the gain for your mic set to loud. A bad cable can cause this too or a problem with a mic. First make sure you’re using an xlr male to xlr female cable with your mic. Not an xlr to 1/4” cable. If you’re using the proper cable try turning the gain down and see if the boss goes a away. It shouldn’t be there if you have the gain around 3/4 of the way even a bit passed that. So almost cranked but not quite. If that gets rid of the hiss but is too quiet, you may need to speak louder and/or speak closer into the mic. If the hiss is still there it could be a bad cable, an issue with the mic, or an issue with the interface itself. You can try moving the interface and maybe relocating the mic, maybe there is some interference.
@@AudioTechTV Ok thanks....if i buy, for example, an audient id4 can i record a song with fx in real time (like autotune) without any delay in my headphones? With the UMC22 is impossible for me to record with that buffer size
@@simonebarbella4118 I find the Audient audio interfaces can achieve much lower latency. With the UMC22 I installed the actual Asio drivers and the latency was a bit lower then Asio4all and I could record in real-time with FX but there was a bit of an echo type of sound though.
@@AudioTechTV With FL Studio and 256 samples of buffer size i got about 6ms of delay do you have the same performance?....If audient or focusrite can achieve to me an imperceptible latency from the DAW i would go for one of them because for me is impossible to record with FX through UMC22 😅
Hi man. I got Behringer umc22 and c1, and I am getting insane background noise. Even my laptop's onboard mic is 10 times better than this. I have installed the driver that you have shown in your video. What is the problem? I would be appreciated if you could help me. Thanks.
The background noise could be caused by the mic and type of mic that you are using. The amount of gain that you’re using for that mic. The room that you’re recording in can also cause this too. If you’re using a condenser mic, they are designed to pick up the sounds of a room. You can try lowering the gain and getting closer to the mic to reduce noise. If you’re using a dynamic mic, they typically reject background noise better but require a lot more gain which can increase preamp and background noise. Try lowering the gain and getting closer to the mic. If you have access to other microphones try them out to make sure it’s not the mic that is causing the noise.
@@AudioTechTV im using bejhringer c1 condenser mic. Actually the c1 mic is better in terms of sound quality but if we think of background noise its very bad compared to my laptops mic. Is it the quaracteristic of condenser mics. Some people said that
@@rusencelik1272 it could be due to the characteristic of that mic. Condensers are really designed to pickup detailed sounds. Try turning the gain down and get really close to it and you might be able to get rid of some of the background sound. You can also use a noise gate to remove some background sounds.
I haven’t used the M Track Duo. The specs are very similar but the M Track duo has mic preamps. The UMC22 only has one. If you need two mic preamps at the same time go with the M Track Duo. If you don’t need that just go with whatever is cheaper. For entry level audio interfaces both will work great and get you started in making music.
Register your Behringer Audio Interface and you should get an email with the code for Tracktion OEM then you can redeem that at Tracktion's website. If for some reason you don't get the Tracktion OEM code in your email, you can contact Behringer and they will send it to you.
You could connect the line out from the piano to the line input on the umc22. It would be mono. So if your digital piano outputs to stereo you wouldn’t get the stereo sound from it.
If you create a great song, people listen to it not seeing the audio interface you use. Nice and motivating, use what you can afford and pray for greater grace.
Help :( ....new user here, i just bought the UMC22, installed the "BEHRINGER_2902_X64_2.8.40" drivers and opened Waveform, after going to settings and selecting the ASIO driver I created a new project, conected my guitar to my "Input 2" and there is no audio coming, Live input is on but the volume stays quiet :(

This is a case where I would say, don't waste your money on the UMC22 unless the 16 bit, and the features are exactly what you want. But if you are unsure of your needs, for $30 more, the UMC202HD is well worth it and the much better choice.

It is often said, buy it right the first time and you won't have to buy again later. The UMC202HD fits that minimum requirement for most purposes where you need only 2 inputs. The UMC22 does not. Have a little more money? Get the UMC404HD - 4 ins/outs, MIDI in/out, send/return loops, A/B monitor switching.

Which buy umc22 or audio mtrack solo
its not working in my mac with OS Big Sur. Pls Help
M-AUDIO M-TRACK DUO OR BEHRINGER U-PHORIA UMC22
??? Which is Better for Recording Vocals ???
Can I use it for casual listening of hifi music and gaming /streaming ?
very inspiring thank you! 5:00

How about the balance output ? How is the quality that give out in the studio monitor?
does it work with Linux? im thinking of getting this interface with the at2020xlr version
Is it compatible with FL studios, and what rca cords do I need with this
I get it for 40 dollars before one week and i can say it's a good audio interface :))
I really enjoy your videos and presentation style. You are very helpful and keep us budget guys in mind. Thank you
Great review..Thanks for the video. I want to record 3.5 mm audio input to my PC. I am not satisfied with the default mother board audio input. Which audio interface will give best results for my requirements. Please suggest.
Scarlett 2i2 if your not too worried about only 2 inputs. If you need more than that hook a mixer right into the audio interphase for more channels
I have one and I keep hearing white noises and other noises in my vocals when I play them back, how can I fix that?
Turn your gain down
New to this recording stuff, great video!!
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Is there really a DAW included? I have the Behringer U-Phoria UMC202HD and I cannot find anything…
I can't remember exactly how I got it now. But I think I had to register the interface on the Music Tribe website and then there were details about getting the Tracktion DAW. I think I had to email someone to request the code and then the code arrived fairly quickly.
i've read somewhere that if an interface use ASIO4all driver it will worse than using an interface that has a dedicated driver for it. is that true ?
Yes. Otherwise they wouldn't make dedicated drivers. Dedicated drivers tend to provide lower latency more stability, features etc.
is 16bit vs 24bit and 48hzvs 192hz noticeable? is it worth getting over the scarlett solo which is almost twice the price as I plann to use it just for voiceovers
For voiceovers it likely won’t be noticeable. But if you are doing voiceovers for a company or plan to do them for another company they may request the audio to be recorded at 24 bit 48khz. But if you are just doing this for yourself, you likely won’t notice a difference.

Would this be good for just my audio tech ath m40x headphones?
It will power those no problem.
Is this interface good for vocals ?
It can be good for vocals if you have a decent mic. The preamp in it is quiet and very clean so it could be a great budget interface for vocals.
@@AudioTechTV is the at2020 good combination with this interface?
@@hugenuuts8069 I want to know this too
Hey! 3:20 . Is the sound on 250ohms distorted or muffled? Im thinking getting a pair of dt990s and can't decide if its worth getting an amp like the ha400
such a glut of $49 interfaces now with the new wave of better usb mics
whats your take, zane?
ive had the umc202hd for years with no issues
I've noticed that the $49 interfaces are all pretty much the same. They have different exteriors and the mic preamp is likely different but the specs are pretty much the same and I'm sure they will sound pretty much the same. Both M-Audio and Behringer make decent quality budget gear. I haven't tested out the M-Track Solo yet but I'm sure it will be very similar in sound to the UMC22. Now my take on cheaper usb mics vs an audio interface and microphone. I would go with the cheap audio interface and microphone. The Fifine K669 is a decent cheap USB mic but I like the idea of having an interface because then I can change up the microphone and have more variety and different mics for different things. For USB mics the really good ones cost $199 and up. And again you're stuck with that one sound. I use the Shure MV51 in pretty much every video I do. It's a USB mic and in my opinion it sounds great. I use it for 1 thing, just my videos. For everything else I use an audio interface and microphone as different things need different mics. So if you're purchasing a USB mic for one thing and you know that mic does a great job at that one thing then go for it but if you like variety (or have a microphone addiction like me) then you might want to get an interface with microphones. You can always keep those mics and upgrade your interface later on.
WOW that was a long response. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
So you can't get the driver for it anymore? Cause I don't love asio4all js
Grab the driver from this video th-cam.com/video/xRmnDkS3Wzo/w-d-xo.html it’s the old Asio driver that works much better then Asio4all. The link is in the description of that video.
I was wondering, would this work well with other kinds of software? for example Discord or Zoom? (especially Discord)
I mostly want to know if people on the other side hear you from one side of the headphones or maybe too low, etc
Thanks for the content!
Does it run on Windows 10? And also have you had any noise problem with it?
Yes it runs on Windows 10. I haven’t had any noise issues with it. If you crank the mic gain all the way full then you will hear some noise but that is true with pretty much every interface.
@@AudioTechTV Thank you :)
hi im planning to get an audio interface, but im kinda confused that should i spend a little more money for focusrite or get this Behringer for cheaper budget? I intend to make music
You can make music with this one or the Focusrite. This one is 16 bits audio and the Focusrite interfaces can do 16 bit or 24 bit plus higher sample rates which you may not get into.
The Focusrite drivers are better in my opinion. Which can give you lower latency but I’ve made music with the Behringer interface and latency wasn’t a big issue for me.
The Behringer interface is a decent budget option to get started with but if you get more into this hobby, you will likely want to upgrade later on. If you go with a Focusrite interface then you can stick with it as you get more into the hobby unless you decide that you need more inputs or outputs.
When you make music, you’re the only one that knows what interface was used. No one is going to listen and say “that was recorded on a Behringer or Focusrite”. If you make a great song it won’t matter what you recorded it on.
@ thanks alot for this useful opinion 🙏🙏 also im kinda picky when considering the micro for recording, im not really sure what aspect should i consider or should i invest in them rather than interface
If this had 2 dedicated ins, id get it. I cant be unplugging the mic or my monitors every time i want to do something
Can I use this as a DAC for gaming? Will there be any audio latency?
No latency bro. Hardcore gamer here been running this for streaming/podcasting. NO problem.
I'm thinking of buying the umc22 to connect studio monitors. Is it enough?
You can connect monitors to this. If they are powered studio monitors this will be enough. If they aren’t powered then you will need an amplifier between the monitors and the interface.
Great advice even 2024
For recording electric guitar should i get the umc22 or focusrite solo
In my country its double the price
If you’re just plugging your guitar directly into the audio interface and using an amp sim the UMC22 should be good enough. If you’re recording a mic up to a cabinet the solo will give you better quality but it may not be too noticeable. If you’re just having fun and maybe recording some demo songs at home the UMC22 can deliver quality recordings. But the Solo will give you 24 but recordings and some people may prefer the mic preamp onThe solo but it’s all a preference thing. The Midas preamp on the UMC22 is decent.
@@AudioTechTV thanks for replying
Im plugging my guitar directly and using amp sims so i guess umc22 will be good
The mic tah your using in this video is a shure SM57?
Yes it’s the Shure Sm57. It has the SM57 windscreen on it so it looks a little different.
Hey, thanks for the video! I have an amp which has a XLR out and cab sim but not a headphone jack. I heard that the best way to fix that is to connect the DI out into an interface and then just run the headphones into that. Will this do the job? If it's worth getting the other more expensive interface I will but just for the headphones it kinda seems a big ask for an extra £60 so I'm wondering if just for that, it won't really matter and getting a more expensive one would just be a waste. And how will it work if I have the amp slightly breaking up? Thanks again :)
If the output is not powered this will work. Meaning that output is not meant to power a cabinet or speaker. Also if the output is line level, which it might be if it has a cabinet sim, you may not need the DI. The DI is meant to bring signals up to line level so if it’s already outputting at line level the DI will be redundant.
If you’re just using this for the headphones you can go with any interface really. The more expensive ones will be overkill. If you plan on recording then you may want to grab something that is at least 24 bit.
As for the break up. If you can get the break up in the preamp stage and then control the output volume that would be ideal that way you’re not overloading the interface which would sound terrible. If you need to crank the output of the amp to get the desired break up then what you might want to get is a load box. The load box would connect to the powered speaker output of your amp and then connect to your audio interface. It acts like the cabinet and will accept the full power of your amp and then filter it out to a level that your audio interface can handle. So you could have everything dimed and still get a decent input level.
Do you have new latest driver for this interface ? cause i dont know how to dowanload it the new one.
Great video thank you for the shared knowledge! Can you please tell me what the "direct monitor" is for? I just use the umc22 for recording games on OBS. Any suggestions for settings?
hello, I cannot activate the ints2 input to play the electric guitar on the computer. Could you please help? Thank you.
If you can’t use your instrument input, you can try installing the driver from this video th-cam.com/video/xRmnDkS3Wzo/w-d-xo.html it’s 64 bit only though. I use that driver and can use both inputs.
Which Mic would be good for Metal screams/Growls?
Extreme budget mic would be Behringer xm8500. A bit higher budget mic would be Shure SM57. Even higher budget Shure SM7b. These mics can handle very loud sources and they do well with vocals.
Shure SM58 or even better Shure SM7b
Hey, I'm sorry for a very noobie question, but does Mic/Line1 mean I cannot give a instrument input in this connector? Basically, my question is can i connect 2 intruments at the same time to this interface?
The line input has a different impedance level compared to an instrument input. You can connect an instrument to it and see how it sounds. If you think it sounds ok then go for it. Another option would be to grab a DI and then you can connect your guitar to the DI and the DI will go into the line/mic input. That would be ideal. The Behringer DI400p is pretty affordable and sounds decent.
@@AudioTechTV Thanks a lot for the information. I'll definitely keep that in mind for my purchase :D
I have the u phoria 404 hd and love it and paid like 80 bux for it
I have behringer umc22 with ik Multimedia xlr. I am pretty sure these are better than my old home studio gears (steinberg ur12 and mxl mic)
Hi! Would you suggest the UMC22 for digital piano recording? Would the Midas input make any difference for that purpose? Thanks!
Is your digital piano stereo or mono? If it's stereo you should look at the UMC202HD. It's just a bit more but will allow you to connect left and right line inputs.
@@AudioTechTV Thanks for your answer. The only output that I have on my digital piano is a mini headphone jack which can also be used as a line out (so I think is stereo (?), and my plan was to use an audio interface to record the audio an so monitoring the sound trought the headphones connected to the audio inteface too (I don't have space for a dedicate speaker and anyway I just need a decent recording - not professional)... Which Audio Interface would you recommend? Thanks
how's it work with the behringer xm8500 mic?
I have had decent results with the XM8500 and the UMC22. The XM8500 needs quite a bit of gain and the UMC22 can give it that gain as long as you have a strong voice going into it. If you have a softer voice (quieter) you might want to look at getting a condenser mic.
Can I use this to connect a midi keyboard to my monitors ?.. I don’t wanna use the speakers from my Mac book to play sounds
If your midi keyboard is USB then you connect that to your computer and connect the umc22 to your computer as well then connect your monitors to the Umc22 and you’ll hear whatever is playing through the monitors.
@@AudioTechTV thank you I will try it
hey, i dont care that much about recording but i start making beats and i want to get better sound because i think my soundcard on my laptop is not the best, is it the right interface for me ? or still buy something else ? thank you if you answer :D
If you aren’t recording anything then y9y won’t really need an audio interface unless you want to connect some studio monitors and other studio gear. But if you are just using loops and samples the audio interface won’t help your sound. If you record midi beats then an interface can help with latency so your timing will be better but if that’s what you want I recommend looking at a Focusrite or Audient interface as they have better latency.
Is it worth getting ultragain mic2200 with this ? Already found a good deals on used nearby.
Is the inst plug can only connect instrument stuff with it ? Or i can bypass that with the preamp ?
I planned to records with 2 mic
will this support a behringer xm8500? I bought one, knowing nothing about sound and now I'm stuck with a microphone that's too quiet
I’ve used the Behringer xm8500 with this interface. You need to crank the gain almost full. The XM8500 needs a lot of gain. You may want to look into getting a condenser mic. They require less gain so you can turn them up louder. With the XM8500 if you’re recording speaking then you want to be right up close to it. If you’re signing you want to sing nice and loud.
Request to please guide on how to setup with an android mobile. I purchased it but unable to make it to work tried open camera third party app. I need to record both video and decent quality audio. I should be able to use both inputs at the same time. Appears like the 2nd input has low gain although it's set to maximum.
I have the dt 770 pro 250 ohms, bought them last week n have them plugged into the same interface…the headphones are pretty distorted when listening to anything hip hop or 808 related… I’m really disappointed, they’re great for any genre that doesn’t use hard hitting bass.
Same experience here even with the 80ohm DT770's ... They do get pretty loud but overall not as good of a combo as my old Xonar DG sound card + Samson SR850 which was so cheap. Disappointing.
@@drewmorg. yea I sent them back n got a refund
So it should be able to work with the Adam audio t7v monitors right? It should power my dt770 80ohms fine too I’m guessing. And the mic input should be good enough in case I want to get a budget mic in the future, right?
You can connect connect your monitors no problem. It powers my DT770 250 ohm headphones without any issues so it will power the 80ohm version no problem. And the mic preamp is decent. I’ve used it with the xm8500 mic which is very budget friendly and it sounds decent. I’ve also used it with an sm7b and sm57 plus a couple of condenser mics without any issues. The preamp is pretty transparent.
@@AudioTechTV I see, thank you. Biggest reason I wanted it for is for the monitors. If i can use a mic in the future and they power my headphones decently, that’s a nice bonus!
Is it compatible to any daws
It should be. I’ve used it with quite a few and haven’t had any issues.
What software do we get from this audio interface? Pro tools , Ableton Live?
You get Waveform OEM which includes the Collective synth.
@@AudioTechTV thank you.
Does pro tools first and able ton live work in this audio interface?
@@RukuveTenyi yes I’ve used both of those programs with this interface and it works.
@@AudioTechTV great... Thanks alot
I have a question,
So, I want to use this for twitch streaming and I use the OBS. But regardless of that, I want to hear the game (my computer audio) and my own voice in the headphones. Now if I connect my headphones and turn on the direct monitor button, will I be able to hear both from the headphones?
Yes. You’ll hear your mic as it goes direct into the interface plus the audio on your computer.
@@AudioTechTV thank you very much.:)
Can bandlab be compatible with the UMC22?
Yes. Bandlab will work with any audio interface.
@@AudioTechTV Thank you!
does this require an activation code when using on PC?
You don’t need an activation code to use the umc22. It’s actually plug and play. Just plug it in and it installs a basic driver. If you want an Asio driver you can use Asio4all or there is also a Behringer Asio driver for it.
Hey, great vid!
Can I use this in DJ software called Serato?
Yes this would work with Serato.
@@AudioTechTV I’m wanting to start live streaming dj sets and looking for an audio interface that won’t break the bank as I’m just starting into the world of streaming.
Do my speakers need to be plugged into my mixer (as they are XLR) or do they need to be plugged into the audio interface with Jack cables for the this to work?
My Mic is soft and I can only get peak if I go into the white noise zone. Any ideas?
Some mics require more gain then others. First make sure you’re using an xlr to xlr mic cable not an xlr to 1/4” cable. Then you might want to try and project your voice a little more. So the input is louder. Another option would be to purchase a Fethead or cloudlifter which adds clean gain so you can lower the gain on your interface. I use a Fethead now and it works very well. The good thing about it is you can use it with any dynamic mic so even if you decide to get another mic later, the Fethead or cloudlifter will work with it as well.
Guys, I've had this for a while. One issue I have had is not having multiple programs audio output since it uses asio4all as a default driver. Is there any work around for this..?
Don’t use Asio4all lol. But if you must use it then go into your windows sound settings and find the Behringer device in there. It might be called something else when you just have the default windows driver installed (I think audio codec). In the playback tab for that device go to properties and then click on the advanced tab and under the exclusive mode area, make sure “allow applications to take exclusive control of this device” is unchecked. Then click apply and you may want to do the same thing in the recording tab too.

Hey Zane, amazing informations and advices here! I am really thinking about purchasing this one since it's my first audio interface. I need it just to mess around with the guitars and keyboards in DAW. Should this baby work fine with: FL Studio, ASIO4ALL, Windows XP, passive Fender Jazz bass. I am not expecting pro studio sound, I just don't want super irritating latency, distorted sounds and unwanted noise. Thanks alot and keep make these awesome vids! ❤️
We are looking at getting this to use for our live feed. Do you happen to have a video showing how to hook it up to a Behringer digital sound mixer. Coming off of a output going into the Behringer audio interface and into computer. I don't know what output off of the board to use and how to set that up.
If you're connecting it to a mixer, I recommend spending about $30 more and getting the Behringer UM202HD. It has 2 line inputs or mic preamps so you can connect a stereo mixer into it. The UMC22 only has 1 mic preamp or line input and you can connect one side of the mixer to the instrument input but it's not going to give you the greatest quality.
@@AudioTechTV Well after watching another video of yours, you mentioned your mixer having an audio interface built-in so I searched to see if ours did too. We have the Behringers x32 and it appears that it has it built-in. I just got to set it up now after I buy a USB printer cable. I hope that works. Currently, our sound is routed to our ATEM production switcher, out the HDMI output, and into our capture card. That is how we are getting audio to the computer. It isn't really bad but it seems when someone is signing, all you hear is highs and no mid or bass. It isn't full. So I am thinking sending straight to the computer from the board will be a big improvement.
thanks for clarifying that 250 ohms can run through it no problem
What mic u using in this video?
That is the Shure SM57 with a foam windscreen on it.
@@AudioTechTV can it work for shure sm57? Wow cool.
What percentage gain is used? Do you use an inline pre amp or do post processing?
@@AudioTechTV I heard that the Shure SM57 requires quite high gain
@PandaBewok it does. To use it with this interface you need a nice quiet room and crank the gain max plus speak fairly close to it. You can also get a Fethead or cloudlifter and use that with it then you can reduce the gain.
I think I used a Fethead when I did this video but i used this combo without it. For quite a while and it was fine.

hello i just received this audio interface, but when using it it consistently disconnects and connects and i was wondering if this is a driver issue or usb
That sounds more like a USB/power issue not a driver issue.
@@AudioTechTV is there latency when you plug your headphones into the interface and if so how do you fix this
@@blueprintstech5638 all audio interfaces will suffer from latency. To reduce the amount of latency you should either install the Asio driver for the UMC22 or install Asio4all and use that. Then in your daw go into the audio settings and make sure the driver type is set to Asio and select Asio4all or whatever driver you installed as the device. Then you will see a control panel button click that and you can try lowering the buffer size. I show how to setup Asio4all here th-cam.com/video/4kuZsklrm-0/w-d-xo.html
The lower the buffer size, the lower the latency. But not all audio interfaces and computers can handle the lowest option so you may need to play around to find the best setting for your setup.
Sir please ans me which one is best for singing umc22 or um2 and which best daw for singing in this interface
Both are pretty much the same. The UMC22 is just slightly better due to the metal casing and the mic preamp is a little bit brighter. As for DAW it’s whichever one you prefer. Waveform OEM comes with these interfaces and it’s a great DAW. You can also try Cakewalk it’s free.
@@AudioTechTV These two umc22 or um2 interfaces come with the same waveform OEM daw and support 48/24 bits? Sir please ans me. Love from india 🇮🇳

@@AudioTechTV if money wasn’t the issue would you recommend the maonocaster lite over this?
@@rayzzingthebar I’m not familiar with that one but I just had a quick look at it and it appears that it doesn’t have a XLR input which means no mic preamp. Therefore your mic won’t sound as good or you would need to purchase an external mic preamp to go with it.
@@AudioTechTV ok thank you for that info
Hey Zane I just got my umcc 22 audio interface and after I record vocals on cakewalk I can hear hiss static sound.How can i remove that?thank you!
That could be caused from having the gain for your mic set to loud. A bad cable can cause this too or a problem with a mic. First make sure you’re using an xlr male to xlr female cable with your mic. Not an xlr to 1/4” cable. If you’re using the proper cable try turning the gain down and see if the boss goes a away. It shouldn’t be there if you have the gain around 3/4 of the way even a bit passed that. So almost cranked but not quite. If that gets rid of the hiss but is too quiet, you may need to speak louder and/or speak closer into the mic. If the hiss is still there it could be a bad cable, an issue with the mic, or an issue with the interface itself. You can try moving the interface and maybe relocating the mic, maybe there is some interference.
I have a PC with a i5-1035g1....if i use asio4all i cant'go under 256 of buffer size. The problem is the pc or the UMC22?

@@AudioTechTV With FL Studio and 256 samples of buffer size i got about 6ms of delay do you have the same performance?....If audient or focusrite can achieve to me an imperceptible latency from the DAW i would go for one of them because for me is impossible to record with FX through UMC22 😅
Hi man. I got Behringer umc22 and c1, and I am getting insane background noise. Even my laptop's onboard mic is 10 times better than this. I have installed the driver that you have shown in your video. What is the problem? I would be appreciated if you could help me. Thanks.
The background noise could be caused by the mic and type of mic that you are using. The amount of gain that you’re using for that mic. The room that you’re recording in can also cause this too. If you’re using a condenser mic, they are designed to pick up the sounds of a room. You can try lowering the gain and getting closer to the mic to reduce noise.
If you’re using a dynamic mic, they typically reject background noise better but require a lot more gain which can increase preamp and background noise. Try lowering the gain and getting closer to the mic. If you have access to other microphones try them out to make sure it’s not the mic that is causing the noise.
@@AudioTechTV im using bejhringer c1 condenser mic. Actually the c1 mic is better in terms of sound quality but if we think of background noise its very bad compared to my laptops mic. Is it the quaracteristic of condenser mics. Some people said that
@@rusencelik1272 it could be due to the characteristic of that mic. Condensers are really designed to pickup detailed sounds. Try turning the gain down and get really close to it and you might be able to get rid of some of the background sound. You can also use a noise gate to remove some background sounds.
@@AudioTechTV thanks man
M Track Duo or Behringer UMC22?
I haven’t used the M Track Duo. The specs are very similar but the M Track duo has mic preamps. The UMC22 only has one. If you need two mic preamps at the same time go with the M Track Duo. If you don’t need that just go with whatever is cheaper. For entry level audio interfaces both will work great and get you started in making music.
how to get that collective synth free with behringer ?????
Register your Behringer Audio Interface and you should get an email with the code for Tracktion OEM then you can redeem that at Tracktion's website. If for some reason you don't get the Tracktion OEM code in your email, you can contact Behringer and they will send it to you.

Hi bro can I connect digital piano to umc22
The UMC22 does not have a midi port. If your digital piano can connect to your computer by usb then you could have both connected at the same time.
@@AudioTechTV I'm using yamaha psr s970 that also not getting connected to laptop
You could connect the line out from the piano to the line input on the umc22. It would be mono. So if your digital piano outputs to stereo you wouldn’t get the stereo sound from it.
