PRESONUS AudioBox iOne
The Presonus AudioBox iOne is our current 2019 recommendation for a good quality & low-priced USB audio Interface. If you need an audio interface for your home studio, with simple operations & which allows you to record on ONE mic & also record your guitar or bass direct into your DAW software, then this is our top choice!The iOne functions at up to 24-bit 96 kHz & is bus powered (requires no 'wall-wart' power-supply), it has one class-A mic input/pre-amp with low-noise and high-headroom. The mic input can be switched to use +48V phantom power making it suitable for a wide variety of mic's from dynamics to condensers & ribbons.
Additionally the iOne features a second switchable line/instrument level input, allowing you to plug in your guitar or bass direct and record straight into your DAW using any amp-modelling plugin.
On the rear the iOne sports a simple pair of balanced 6.3mm (1/4 inch) TRS main line-level outputs to feed your studio monitors & these outputs have their own dedicated front-panel volume control.
As a bonus - and this is a feature which is very important for an audio-interface - the iOne also has a stereo headphone output on the front panel with it's own independent volume level control.
This combination of two separate & dedicated volume controls - one for the studio monitor speakers & one for the headphones. - makes audio recording on a mic a simple process. You can easily turn DOWN the monitor-speakers level while recording on the mic (that way the sound of the speakers doesn't get on to the mic recording), and then AFTER recording you can easily turn the monitors back up again to listen back to what you recorded.
On audio-interfaces which do NOT have a separate dedicated volume control for BOTH monitor-speakers & headphones, you are forced to constantly turn your monitor speakers down using their own volume controls (or turn them off using their power switch) every time you record a take on the mic, and then you have to turn the monitor-speakers back up again (using their own volume controls) or by switching them back on again when you finish recording on the mic & want to listen back to what you recorded... this becomes a royal pain in the rear-end when doing longer sessions.
The Presonus Audiobox iOne retails at Thomann for a low €88 Euros, making it super value! - If you really need to record two mic's at the same time, then you can step up to Presonus's super-value Presonus AudioBox USB 96 which features two mic pre-amps inputs for just one Euro more, at €89 Euros! (and the Presonus AudioBox USB 96 also features real MIDI IN/OUT sockets on the back as a further additional feature)
Although I don't own this product, I have spent time with it on a friends studio setup & I can say it's a great little unit offering fantastic bang for buck & a great sound!
