Universal Audio Volt 1 USB Audio Interface

A portable recording interface ideal for professional-sounding music productions, livestreams and podcasts.
Built for singers, guitarists and podcasters, the Volt 1 desktop 1-in/2-out USB 2.0 portable recording interface for Mac/PC and iPad/iPhone delivers 24-bit/192kHz audio conversion, a selectable Vintage mic preamp mode and a suite of industry-leading software. The Volt 1 features top-of-the-line audio quality in a retro-inspired industrial design, making it easy to create professional-sounding music productions, livestreams and podcasts at home or on the road. It includes bus power for Mac, PC, iPad and iPhone. Built-in vintage-style mic preamps and tone shaping bring the rich, full sound of classic UA outboard gear to your studio. It includes a full suite of audio and music tools from Ableton, Relab, Melodyne, UJAM, Marshall, Ampeg and more, giving you all the creative control and flexibility you need.

Record Yourself With Best-in-Class Audio Quality
From the team that brought you the game-changing Apollo interface, Volt 1 delivers superior studio sound quality, with more character and tone than any USB interface in its class.

Capture a Classic Vocal With Vintage Mic Preamp Model
Few sounds can compare to a vintage Universal Audio 610 tube preamp, as used to record everyone from Ray Charles to Van Halen. Volt 1 gives you the rich, full sound of this classic UA mic/line/instrument preamp, thanks to its built-in tube emulation circuitry, a UA exclusive.

Stay Inspired With a Curated Suite of Audio Software
Some audio interfaces give you a smattering of random audio apps. Not Volt. Instead, UA put together a bundle of serious music production tools, virtual instruments and plug-ins, including Ableton, Melodyne, UJAM’s Virtual Drummer, Marshall, Ampeg and more.

Easy In, Easy Out
Volt 1 gives you simple 1-in/2-out audio connections. Just plug a mic or instrument into the front panel. Then connect your speakers or headphones to monitor your audio with no latency. With Volt, you'll be creating like a pro, fast.

iPad & iPhone Ready
Traveling light? Plug Volt 1 into your iPad or iPhone, and you can easily create beats and samples, record your band’s rehearsals, and edit songs anywhere.*

Includes a 30-day Free Trial to UAD Spark
Volt 1 users get an extended 30-day free trial to UAD Spark, an ever-expanding library of world-class plug-ins and instruments for a low monthly price. UAD Spark plug-ins run natively on Mac and will give your recordings the pro analog tones heard on your favorite albums.
