Lewitt CONNECT 2 USB-C Audio Interface

Lewitt CONNECT 2 Overview

User-Friendly Audio Interface for Mac/Windows and iOS

Turn your Mac/Windows computer or iOS mobile device into a powerful and simple-to-use music-creation, podcast, and streaming station with the Lewitt CONNECT 2, a user-friendly USB-C audio interface that gives you everything you need to make your voice and instrument sound sensational with just a few clicks. Featuring a microphone preamp with 72 dB of gain, CONNECT 2 delivers pristine sound quality with every type of mic-without the need for a signal booster. Run Autosetup to find the perfect settings for you with the help of the integrated Clipguard, Denoiser, Compressor, and three iconic preamp sounds. Great for podcasters, gamers, YouTubers, and streamers, the Loopback channel lets you mix audio from any software, game, or Zoom session running on your computer, with the audio being recorded through the interface.

The touch-based user interface with LED metering feels great and offers intuitive controls with clear visual feedback, including mute functions for all ins and outs. Give your setup a personal touch with individual LED colors, and use the Custom button for workflow shortcuts. CONNECT 2 comes with its own CONTROL CENTER software that allows you to access the full feature set and control all the parameters digitally.

Professional Sound with Just a Few Clicks

• CONNECT 2 features a crystal-clear microphone preamp with 72 dB gain, 118 dB dynamic range, and low-noise performance of -129 dBV EIN.
• Autosetup finds your perfect settings and sound automatically.
• Autogain dials in the perfect gain for you in seconds.
• Clipguard protects your signal from clipping.
• Iconic preamp sounds to change the overall sound character: Clear-for perfect clarity, Warm-for a vintage vibe, and Vivid-for extra articulation.
• Compressor adds punch and power to your voice.
• Denoiser analyses your signal and gets rid of background noise.
• DSP-powered for zero-latency effects and monitoring.

Record Your Guitar with Perfect Clarity

• Connect your guitar to the 1/4" Hi-Z instrument input, and enjoy a direct-input (DI) signal that faithfully captures your sound with 121 dB dynamic range.
• This differential input works with any guitar, from vintage single-coils to modern active humbuckers.
• The ground-break-loop circuit allows for enhanced hum immunity.
• As with the microphone channel, CONNECT 2 can automatically set the input gain after strumming your electric guitar for a few seconds.
• The tonal variety of the preamp sounds gives you much more flexibility than with a traditional DI box, and the 1-click studio-quality Compressor is a great way to shape the dynamics of your playing.

Streaming and Loopback Made Easier

• The easy-to-use loopback channel allows you to capture the playback audio of your computer. It runs on the DSP of CONNECT 2 and works independently from the software.
• With the available input-channel mapping options and dedicated streaming mode, you can easily use CONNECT 2 with your streaming software, mobile devices, and mobile apps.

Intuitive, Touch-Based User Interface

• CONNECT 2 has an intuitive user interface that offers touch-based capacitive controls for smooth level adjustments and precise visual metering.
• With the touch wheel in the center, you can control the microphone and instrument input, headphones, and monitor levels.
• Each input and output can be muted directly on the device.
• You can adjust the input/playback signal at any ratio for zero-latency monitoring.
• The Custom button lets you assign one of many workflow shortcuts, like quickly switching from a recording to a monitoring scenario or bringing up the CONTROL CENTER with a single push.

Enjoy the Authentic Sound of your Headphones

• When recording and mixing, you need to trust what you hear. CONNECT 2's Zero-Ohm headphone outputs ensure an accurate listening experience while they retain your headphones' frequency response.
• When using high-impedance studio headphones, you can activate the dedicated high-impedance mode to get the power you need to drive them.
• To save time looking for adapters, CONNECT 2 offers 1/4" and 3.5mm headphone jacks.

A Nice Personal Touch with Custom LED Colors

• You can quickly adapt the visual display to your setup, personal brand, and environment by changing the LED brightness and colors. You can even change and customize the color of the metering bar, the gain reduction indicator, and the channel icons.

CONTROL CENTER for Full Digital Control

• CONNECT 2 comes with its own CONTROL CENTER software that allows you to access the full feature set and control all the parameters digitally.

Full Software Package Included

• CONNECT 2 includes licenses for Steinberg Cubase LE and Steinberg Cubasis LE. It is compatible with Mac, Windows, and iOS.
