- Multitrack recording with the Behringer U-Phoria UMC404HD and Ardour (Linux), Mixcraft (Windows). Update on Audacity can be found here • How to do Multitrack R... drivers for Windows can be found at www.behringer....
The Behringer U-Phoria UMC404HD is a 4 in/4 out USB Audio interface and can be used for multitrack recording with Windows, Apple and Linux recording software (DAW). In this video I'll walk you trough the steps I took to record multiple tracks at once with it. I made some wrong assumptions and little mistakes at first, but I hope the little errors I made will help you prevent them.
LINUX
Although Behringer doesn't claim it to be compatible with Linux, it does work perfectly well on Ardour (with the standard ALSA driver). You don't need additional drivers for it. Do make sure you switch off the "midi" when starting a recording with Ardour since it doesn't support the midi input if there's no real midi device connected to the interface!
WINDOWS
For Windows you'll need to download a driver from their webisite. It doesn't work with the standard ASIO4ALL drivers that are used by most home recording enthusiast using the standard 1 or 2 channel input/output devices. Although I failed to get it recording 4 tracks at once with Audacity, I'm almost certain it should be possible. If I ever find out how, I'll post a follow-up video on that since I believe that would be a perfect solution for the fast, leightweight, "on the road" recording.
I tested it on only two windows programs but am positive it will work on many others like Reaper, pro tools, cubase, ableton live, studio one, and so on.
As far as I'm concerned this is the best bang for the buck!

Thanks! This worked!
Glad to be of help
Hi Rudy, quick question: do you have any problems with xruns?
I searched for others trying to get this device to record all individual 4 channels in Audacity.
Instead of using the Direct Sound it should work with Wasapi (Windows Audio Session API)
True, I have an additional video explaining it (when I finally found out how to do it I decided to share that information)
I am searching for a multitrack-over-USB device and found Your review about the UMC404HD. Do You know if the Q1204USB ist multitrack, too?
I'm sorry I don't know. At least 2 channels at once (2x mono, left/right) should be possible but I assume that's all.
How come this is like the only Multi-Track audio interface for around $180 CAD, all the other ones are rack units worth over $1000.
Because the others let you pay way to much for Chinese hardware :) !!
As of 10th March 2019, the musictribe websites is down. The device doesn't work without drivers and you can only download them from a website that doesn't work....... :/
With Linux you dont meer drivers 😁
mine only want me to do either 1-2 or 3-4 WHY NOT ALL OF THEM ?!?!? :-D (dying on the inside)
1-2 and 3-4 = 4. Just set up your DAW correct.
@@brinkhost can you explain how to set up the DAW?
Yeah don't be an arrogant SOB "just set up your DAW correct" if you're going to post an informal video on using a 4 channel interface. I did exactly what you did in your proceeding video: host- WASAPI and it still shows only two channel inputs. Maybe the others are having the same problem.
@@filitalian go on the internet and research it yourself, its not that hard... Dont complain if some guy on the internet doesnt write a whole paper on how to get YOUR interdace working.
@@N.Willems works now thx
