Producers, musicians, and podcasters can record at home or on the go with the CAD CX2 Connect II, a portable 2x2 USB Type-C audio interface that combines quality sound with operational simplicity and a robust all-metal body. The two preamps with combo XLR-1/4 mic/instrument inputs enable you to record either two microphones or a combination of microphone and instrument, perfect for the singer/songwriter or a vocalist with an accompanying instrumentalist.
The CX2 Connect II lets you record at professional 24-bit / 96 kHz resolution. It offers 48V phantom power for use with studio condenser microphones and is fully USB bus-powered-no external power source required. A volume knob controls the level of the left and right 1/4 line outputs. There is also a headphone out with volume knob to monitor yourself while performing. For complete recording freedom, the interface is compatible with almost any recording software on Windows or Mac laptop or desktop computers.
