Review: Behringer UMC204HD: A Budget-Friendly Audio Interface That Delivers - I picked up the Behringer UMC204HD for my secondary setup, mainly for work meetings and high-resolution music listening. While my main rig boasts a Focusrite Solo Gen 4, this little Behringer has pleasantly surprised me with its performance and value. Why the Behringer Shines: Simple Setup, Stellar Sound: The Behringer was a breeze to set up on my Windows laptop. No fuss, no muss, just plug it in and go. The audio quality, especially for high-resolution music, is impressive. Feature-Rich, Budget-Friendly: For my needs, the Behringer's feature set is more than enough. It handles my XLR microphone flawlessly and delivers pristine audio to my headphones and speakers. And let's not forget the price tag - it's a steal! No Frills, Just Performance: Unlike the Focusrite, the Behringer doesn't come with a bunch of software that I don't need. It's a no-nonsense audio interface that just works. A Word of Caution: I've tried other budget audio interfaces, like the M-Audio 192-4, and had a frustrating experience with driver issues on Windows 10. If you're looking for a reliable, plug-and-play solution, the Behringer UMC204HD is the way to go. Bottom Line: If you're not a music producer and just need a solid audio interface for everyday tasks, the Behringer UMC204HD is an excellent choice. It's affordable, easy to use, and delivers high-quality audio.
Review: Good Sound Quality, Low Latency, Great Price - I am setting up a small music workstation/recording outfit for my kids at home. Setup with this box was extremely easy, worked from the get-go. Played very well with Windows (WDM) system sound- no problems, just worked. I was leery of buying this box because the specs seemed too good to be true. That and a hit and miss past with Behringer products. As of late though, I've been quite impressed with the new products they're putting out. This is no exception. The build quality isn't only as good as much more expensive products, but it exceeds them. The chassis is a very sturdy metal, really chunky and solid (which is good). The knobs, while plastic, are also solid and attached to incredibly smooth pots. Honestly, you'd be hard pressed to find a smoother throw on a knob in any product, regardless of price. I am a professional musician/producer and own audio interface products by Apogee, RME, Motu, Presonus, and Avid. As far as build quality, this box is on par. My limited experience with the sound quality of this box thus far leaves me with the impression that the box is certainly adequate if not excellent. The mic pres are clean with plenty of gain. The conversion is also clean and absolutely not getting in the way of creativity or a great performance. Beyond build and sound quality, one of my biggest concerns with this box was latency as I am setting up a workstation that will be primarily built around virtual instruments (VSTi's) and Cubase. I currently have the ASIO latency buffer set at 64 and that's producing about 6-7ms of round trip latency. When playing virtual instruments it's about half that. The box also has a playback/monitor mix knob for zero latency monitoring when recording live instruments/voice. So far the latency performance is excellent and has far exceeded my expectations. Bottom line: You won't come close to finding something this well built and functional among any of the lower priced audio interfaces. The value for what you're getting is amazing.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How should I stop the humming/buzzing noise?**
A: In order of importance:

1) Use high quality balanced TRS cables from the outs to your monitors. 
2) Use good quality monitors which are self-powered each. 
3) Isolate I/O using a good quality DI-Box such as the ubiquitous green Radial ProD2 with all balanced TRS connections.
4) Enable ground loop lift option on the DI-Box.
5) Use a high quality USB cable which is shielded.
6) Use a high quality Power source for your DAW workstation. Something with gold+ or Platinum rails should do.
7) Use an add-in USB PCI-E card rather than built in USB on the motherboard. 
8) Nuclear option would be a power conditioner where all studio related electronics (computer, interface, amp etc.) are plugged into.
You can also mess around with shielded computer cases I guess. Never heard of anyone doing that though.
And stop using wifi if possible.
Also turn off your phone or keep it nowhere near your setup.

What you are hearing when you hear buzz/hum is radio interference from 50hz/60hz power such as the power supplies, as well as radiometric interference form things like cell phones and even radio stations. But most of it is from local mains power. If your power is exceptionally noisy and the interface is very unshielded then there is not a hwole lot you can do other than get a better interface and a power conditioner.

**Q: can i use the two inputs  at the same time? i had the cheaper  level model of this and it wouldn't  let me**
A: Yes you can. While you don't state what cheaper model you are referring to, some only have a single input channel.  This unit has 2 input channels and 4 output channels.  The 2 input channels can definitely be used at the same time, and by default they will map to a stereo pair of Channel 1 Left and Channel 2 Right.  You can map them as you choose in your DAW if that isn't what you want.

**Q: Does this come with software?**
A: The package does not have any software with it.  You need to go to this address to download drivers for Windows:  https://www.music-group.com/brand/c/Behringer/downloadsand pick "Computer Audio" category, then "Audio Interfaces" sub-category, then Product "IMC204HD"  These are just the drivers so Windows can use the interface. Once these are installed, the Behringer shows up as an audio playback and record device. Pretty much any software will work with it then. I use Audacity and Reaper.  You can use the same address above, but select "UMC202HD" and download the apps for Windows, which includes Audacity and Podcast. And other folders with effects and such..  Register your product at this page: http://www.music-group.com/brand/behringer/support/product-registration  Then you should receive an email with your registration code which you're supposed to be able to go to Tracktion.com and receive a full version of Tracktion for free. I haven't completed this step, but did track down the web pages.  Lots of hoops, I'm afraid, as it looks like all the listed website addresses are out of date.  These work.  I like the unit and it really cleaned up my churches web stream.

**Q: Will it work with OS X 10.11.3?**
A: Working fine for me on OS X 10.11.3. No issues that I've encountered, just straight plug & play.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Solid Choice for M-Audio Users Impacted by the Sierra OS Update
*by R***N on April 7, 2017*

I've been an avid Amazon member and buyer since 2008, but this is my first review. Anytime I'm replacing a product, I weed through so many reviews hoping to find someone in a similar situation for comparison, so I'm hoping this helps someone out there. Prior to this, I had been using M-Audio ProFire 610 in my "mobile/home studio" for close to ten years and loved the thing. However, they chose to no longer support updates to its driver, so I was finally force to find a new interface which landed me choosing between the Focusrite 6i6 and the U-Phoria 204HD. I just received it and have been thoroughly impressed so far. It definitely took a bit of adjusting to get used to the controls, but outside of that, I'm not sure you can beat the quality for this price range. For Mac systems, it truly is plug and play. I'm currently using it on a late 2013 iMac running Sierra OS. No need to download drivers or anything like that. On my ProFire 610, I would have to crank the gain pretty high for mic inputs to get a decent wave signal, but the 204HD has no problem pulling signal. My only cons so far are: 1) Only 1 headphone output. This was actually the main factor that brought the Focusrite 6i6 into the equation. I solved for this by purchasing Behringer's 4-channel headphone amp ($25), which still keeps the cost of everything significantly lower then others in the price range. I don't record with a full band, but when I help friends record their songs I obviously want to be able to listen in my own set of headphone monitors while they're recording. 2) No phantom power switch on the front. It's not a huge deal, but I have the interface sitting on a shelf and have to reach behind for the switch when I'm recording a condenser mic. Anyways, for M-Audio users impacted by the Sierra upgrade, this is a very solid choice for just $80.
