Thank you for including the sample song at the end!
I have the single channel iRig PRO I/O and it is fantastic. The phantom power (just like on the DUO) allows me to use a high quality condenser mic to capture acoustic guitar, vocals and video (simultaneously) with super high quality on my iPhone. The post processing capabilities of the included iRig Recorder App are really good - you do have to pay for some of the processing plugs-ins like compression, volume leveling, delay, etc., but it's not expensive and well worth it to get a pro sounding recording. I'm considering getting the DUO as well, for the added flexibility of using two mics for podcasts, or for having separate inputs for guitar and vocals. IK Multimedia gear is very easy to work with and they have tons of inexpensive (sometimes free) software to make everything sound even better.
I use the Duo for a lot of different things. From my show, to bringing in my band's mixer, to stereo micing. It's really great.
Geekazine I can definitely see the DUO being worth the money. I’ll use the single channel PRO I/O for capturing quick ideas or even guitar and vocals over one large condenser mic, but the DUO opens up a lot lore options and is portable for when I don’t want to (or can’t) use my Yamaha mixer with a USB out.
It would be nicer and useful if the unit applies standard USB connection instead of mini DIN. I don’t know whether it affects the audio quality but the mini DIN seems like dealbreaker for me since the replacement is not available in my country. The only one solution to replace the cable, if it is broken, is by buying another irig unit that comes with mini DIN. The cheaper unit is iRig Pro I/O.
They used this type of cable since they started. There are other devices that use micro-USB instead of DIN, and was curious as to why the Pro Duo I/O uses this connector. I have never lost my cables, so this is not a deal breaker for me.
What about the durability of the cable? By the way, thanks for replying.
Thanks for the detailed look! I think I am going to try one when they are available. I wish that IK had made one of the MIDI inputs USB. So many controllers these days are only USB. P.S. Cool Epiphone.:^)
Thanks, and thanks! And yes - it would be nice, but you can get a USB-MIDI adapter.
@@geekazine Yep! One more adaptor!😄
So glad they got rid of the glossy
Glossy?
but the glossy one has the longer cable for the midi (probably 1 meter length)
Do you have a video where it shows you connected into GarageBand step-by-step
I’m looking to use this in the most basic sense- just wanna record unprocessed audio. Can I run this in mono? If not could I just use one mic with a Y cable? Do you think there would be a noticeable difference between this and the irig pro I/o with the high bitrate? I thought it would sound good to mic a cab with one channel and have a room mic on the other or should I just go for the single channel
Plug in 1 and it's tecnically in mono. The Quattro will allow for mono records
Great video. I'm using mine for Facebook live. I've tried it trough running my stream through Streamyard but it's still ending up as a mono mix instead of true L and R stereo. Anyone have a fix? Thanks
I go through a streaming software (Wirecast), and tell it to send through both channels. You need something like Voicemeeter Banana (Windows), or Audio Hijack (Mac) to send mono or dual stereo.
@@geekazine Great. Thank you very much.
Hi guys.
I have a question regarding the optional power supply that you can buy separately for the iRig pro duo io.
Does the optional power supply charge your iPad/iPhone and the IRig pro duo io while in use.
Or does it only power the IRig pro duo io by itself and not your iPad/iPhone while in use. I can’t find any legit info on this subject and have noticed the IRig powerbridge is no longer being sold by ik multimedia. Thanks !!!
Has anyone been able to record video on an iPhone whilst capturing sound from the iRig Pro Duo?
I’m thinking of buying one but need to check this first. Thanks!
Hey 👋 Im gonna order it, and do a comparison video with the tc helicon go twin. Both look really identical. I already have done a Video about the go twin, with english subtitle if you are interested.
Cool 👍. Let me know how it goes.
Hi,
Have you tried to connect any device to the midi input? Mine give me an unexpected flickering of the midi led and it receives "RT clock" signal, whateve device I connect and whatever midi cable I plug. Maybe mine has an outage. Thanx
I have. DIdn't have that issue.
It's possible to use this interface with my Amplifier, IPhone Amplitube 4, Garageband ou Bias FX,
1 channel before the preamp head and 2 channel after the preamp, in the effect loop, like 4 cable method ?
Will have sound "Latency" problem ? I would like to replace my effects processor rack.
Could you make a demonstration video ?
Let me think about it.
Hi Geekazine, just bought this, so thanks for the video. I have a question: I have an android phone & want to livestream on fb/IG/TH-cam doing what you did on this video (gtr/vocal). I want to be able to use Live stereo vocal effects (reverb/delay) on both guitar/vocal. What would you suggest?
how do you hook it to an android phone? Just the usbc? And, what app do you use on the phone?
Could I get this as stereo, as in I put one input panned to L and the other panned to R? Need to know before I purchase
It has only 2x mono input, right? So I can't use a stereo AND a mono mic at the same time. :(
It has 2 inputs. A stereo mic would need the splitter adapter to work.
How does it compare to the iRig Pro Duo I/O? Mostly I'm interested in latency and noise level (because I'm looking at it for a live looping setup, so latency is super important). If I'm not mistaken the iRig is 24 bit/48 kHz. Does that mean the Evo 4 will have noticeably less latency?
Are they similar products or is there something big I'm missing? Thanks!
I don’t understand. This IS the irig pro duo I/O
@@geekazine curious if they meant the iRig Stream as those are the two I am trying to decide between.
Hello a very interesting video here! Thanks in advance. I have a question. I want to broadcast live streams on TH-cam but with decent microphones that I have of all kinds. I also have a professional stand alone device (Nagra) for brilliant recordings. But for live streaming I want to use my OnePlus 6 together with the iRig pro duo and some professional XLR microphones. Do you think such a thing is possible with my OnePlus 6 Smartphone?
Yes you can! It's meant for mobile.
@@geekazine okay thanks 💐
@@geekazine Still a thought: it is indeed also intended for Android Smartphones, but only with a USB compatibility ... My question to you was whether it would work with a OnePlus 6 and which has a 3.5 m headphone connection. So that's probably not going to work.... 😢Most likely I should be looking forward to a new Smartphone. Are there alternatives or do I have to buy a new Smartphone? What do you think 🤔 😉
Great video....and it appears to calm my fears...but can you help one more time. I purchased an IRig Stream and no matter how I attempt to hook it up, it does not work. I do have the IRig Pre that works great for XLR mic (Facebook live), but I want to add acoustic guitar, but don’t want to drop an additional $200 for another brick. I’ve noticed two other questions where you confirm that the Duo will work that way. All I need is another “yes” it works with XLR & acoustic guitar (1&2).
I don't have the stream. What did you plug it into? A phone? a computer?
Geekazine plugged into an iPhone XR. UPDATE- So I followed instructions and opened IRig recorder app, then opened up Facebook live....failure!!! Closed the IRig recorder app and just opened Facebook live...and it worked!!! I was shocked 😳....after three days of fooling with it. Now to see if I can adjust guitar/vocal mix in a listenable way! 🎸🎶
Hi there, I have a question, I have a macbook pro 2015 that doesn´t have line in (and cheap usb soundcards have terrible quality, a lot of static), my purpose is to live stream from my mac (using obs), connecting to IRIG my dj controller (for example) and sending good quality sound to my mac (via IRIG USB A cable i suppose) so I can provide a quality sound stream managed in my macbook pro (for OBS usage), should I buy IRIG for this? Thanks a lot for your video and any help you can provide.
Note: Delivering stereo sound to my macbook...
This will work. Send me pix if you get it.
Another iRig lineup would be your need. The iRig stream.
Hi @Geekazine why would you buy the Irig Pro Duo I/O, when you can have the Irig Pro Duo at a lower price? Pros/cons? Thank you ;)
The I/O replaced the original Duo, if that is what you are referring to. If the original Duo works for you, then use it.
@@geekazine he's asking WHY it replaced the original...
I’m looking for a input and output for livestream. I want to invite a friend to my broadcast and able to hear him while I have my instrument plug into the iPhone. Is this doable?
I already have an Irig but once I plug it in, I can’t hear my friend talk during livestream .
Patch it trough a small mixer.
hi, i have a quick question. whenever i use my condenser microphone and use the phantom power i cant record for longer then about 10 min. the phantom power seems to drain the power very quickly. why is that so?
the phantom power seems to drain the batteries very quick* sorry
Not sure what you are recording on, but it might be a good idea to get the power adapter.
Does the direct monitor options also works for the LR outputs ??? Or I Ly por the headphones ??? Please help !!!
If a plus this into an iPhone or iPad using video mode does it work and is the quilting decent? Also can u go through a mixer then into this so you can use the effects on the mixer?
Yes on the iOS device. No on the mixer.
If you use their iRig Recorder app on your iPhone or iPad to record the video, there are several post processing effects that you can add and they work really well. If I'm doing something like acoustic guitar and vocals, I'll add a tiny amount of delay, volume leveling and then some mild compression and it sounds fantastic after you export it. I compared it to the on board effects on my Yamaha MG10XU mixer with a USB out (instead of the iRIG PRO) using a usb to lightening adapter to my iPhone and the iRig post processing options were quite a bit better.
Thanks for the great video! Do you know how would I connect the standard Type B (D shape) USB Midi output port from a Midi Controller to the iRig pro duo? We have the Arturia MK2 Minilab that has only the standard USB cable output.
How would this stand as a main audio interface compared to desktop interface (e.g. Behringer umc22)? Would it be as effective?
I am using it over my mixer right now. Lots of features wont be there from a mixer, but I can use software to fix that.
@@geekazine My question is similar to the above .. I want to know more about how it acts when you record tracks into a DAW like cubasis or like at least bandlab.. can you monitor everything correctly? meaning actually hearing pristine audio from your tracks that you laid down while adding in your guitar solos and vocals etc.. does it keep up with several thick tracks with effects on them etc? Could you please elaborate on your experience as much as possible because I'm considering buying two of these one for me and a friend that lives to far away to make frequent tracking possible ... Thanks !
Will it work on my samsung Galaxy Tab A android tablet?
Check with IK Multimedia.
Can I use the iRig Pro Duo on my Android for video recording like iRig 2? Such as if your breakout cable came with a TRRS for smartphones to record the external microphones into my video recording like the iRig 2. I want to record dual Lavalier microphones for an interview using my smartphone camera. Is this only for audio recording and not video as well? Can this operate like the Rode SC6 with inputs of dual lavalier mics for video recording?
Hi Jeffrey! Question: if I use this iRig Pro Duo with my iPhone XR to record audio (guitar and vocals) and video (using the iPhone Camera app) will the recorded audio output be in stereo? Or will my phone force the audio into one channel (audio output only on the left side, for example). I really want to buy this, but want to avoid the problem above. Thanks for this video.
Just did this. Channel 1 will go left, 2 will go right. You will have to use something like iMovie to merge the audio into one track.
Hello. Greetings from Guatemala. I have a question, can i use a condenser mic with the phantom power and at the same time on the second plug an electroacusitc guitar? dont burn any electronic system on the guitar? Thanks.
Does it work for iPad Pro 2020 4th generation?
Might want to get the external power for it, but yes.
Just got mine - having an issue, recording with a mic and guitar, mic sounds fine but the guitar is super quiet... any ideas?
Might need a preamp with the guitar
@@geekazine it was be being dense, I needed to create separate tracks, I wasn't giving it enough credit that it was capable of registering 2 tracks through 1 input
@@MrDann0Hall what do u mean?
Hey, I am considering buying the iRig Pro Duo I/O. Would be able to give me the spec difference between the older model (iRig Pro Duo) and this?
I don't have the older model. I think the big difference is the MIDI, but not sure.
sounds flat 🙉😵 Why? Did you EQ it?
Can you record sound for videos on your phone with this? I have an android and want to make guitar tutorial videos. Thx!
It says you can, but I didn't test with Android
@@geekazine Ok thx. I'm realizing I may need a USB "On the Go" adapter cuz the android cable it comes with doesn't work. So I may have to use the USB cable then get an adapter for android. But not sure yet as I am ordering it.
Just so other readers know.
Are the monitor outs post fx effects for guitar and vocals?
Good question. I believe they were Post.
waste our time opening a box. I'm not 12. Get on with it.
