Critic Reviews

Novation Audiohub 2x4

soundonsound.com

The Novation Audiohub 2x4 impresses with its robust build and practical integration of a USB hub with an audio interface, making it a handy tool for electronic musicians needing multiple USB connections. While it excels in utility for live performances and home studios, offering reliable audio output and simple operation, its lack of a microphone preamp and MIDI I/O might deter some users. The fixed gain levels on line inputs could limit flexibility, but the Audiohub delivers on its promise for those whose needs align with its design. Overall, it's a solid choice for specific contexts, with notable convenience factors.

Review: Novation Audiohub : Ask.Audio

ask.audio

The Novation Audiohub 2x4 shines as a robust audio interface tailored for live performers, offering solid low-latency performance and a durable build. Its integrated USB hub is a practical boon for those juggling multiple devices, and the output is impressively loud. However, the lack of MIDI connectivity for syncing multiple computers and the inability to use direct monitoring without USB connectivity are notable drawbacks. Despite these limitations, its performance and thoughtful hardware design make it a top contender in its price range for live audio needs.

It shines with excellent audio quality and includes a handy three-port USB hub, enhancing connectivity. While it lacks 1/4" or MIDI inputs, its focus on electronic setups justifies this omission.

Novation Audiohub 2x4

Audio hub 2x4 is a combined audio interface and USB hub for electronic music production with Focus rite sound quality. It lets you connect and power all your USB gear at once, while getting ultra-low latency audio and super loud output. It has three USB 2.0 ports for bus-powering your whole setup, matched stereo inputs for sampling pristine audio, and four line RCAs or two balanced jack outputs with super high quality sound. This isn't just a USB hub; it's a powerful audio interface too. We partnered with Focus rite, who make the best sounding audio interfaces in the world, to make sure Audio hub 2x4 gives you extraordinary quality 96 kHz, 24-bit audio performance. This allows you to sample and capture pristine quality audio and listen back with zero latency at the click of a button. Connect your main speakers and cue sub to high quality balanced and unbalanced outputs, with totally independent level control. The headphone output is also ludicrously loud. We put all the volume and status controls on the top to make them easy to access and housed the whole thing in a solid metal case. Audio hub 2x4 allows you to condense your DJ rig by plugging all of your equipment to a single unit, with blisteringly loud speaker and headphone outputs, and independent level controls helpfully placed on the top. To produce or perform electronic music, simply connect and power all your Novation USB and MIDI gear using a single unit. Audio hub 2x4 will blast your music out as loud as you like, while capturing your synth performances with exceptional Focus rite-quality audio, and playing them back with zero latency. And you can plug all your USB and audio gear into Audio hub 2x4, then connect that to your iPad using a single camera connection kit (not included). Simply play your music in and output it live, all while powering your gear without draining your iPad battery as quickly.

Helpful enough.

Really only use it for it's RCA in's for sampling. Soon as that's done I'm back to my regular interface. I've not tried pushing it for conversion or pre stuffs-just as an extra USB hub & theRCA INPUTS & for my sampling needs it does just fine. Grab stuff & dump it into Ableton & im off. My iLok lives there as well. Never had any issues tho.

molwax

great innovative product

why no one else thought about it, i'm not quite sure, but the 3 slot usb hub is just the most convenient connection on the audiohub 2x4! low latency, great pristine focusrite sound quality, extremely loud volume, and an overall elegantly and functionally designed gear great for the entry-level price that it comes in...what's there not to like?

digibilly

Works great, but...

After I had is for a bit, the connections and the buttons are a bit finicky, especially the gain button.

joma_music

Nice value/price reaction.

Compact design. Easy to use. Wish It could have 1 more input at least.
