Bigger, better and more powerful than ever before! The iD48 is the flagship iD interface for producers and sound engineers. It features eight Audient Console Mic Preamps, advanced 32-bit ESS converter technology and with the new Switchable Analogue Insert technology, the iD48 seamlessly combines amazing audio performance with ease of use. Together with must-have professional features such as ADAT expandability and customisable monitor control, the iD48 is ready to transform the studio experience.

The 32-bit ESS DAC converter technology minimises quality loss and maximises performance during conversion, ensuring that the sound is cleaner, clearer and more precise than ever before. And with a dynamic range of 126.5 dB, subtle details are easier to hear, allowing problematic areas to be recognised more quickly.

With its D-Sub connectors, the iD48 offers eight fully balanced inserts that can be used to integrate favourite outboard effects before conversion – for the cleanest and clearest possible signal path. Perfect for stem mixing and print backs. And for the first time ever, the iD48’s switchable insert routing allows you to select the source that feeds the ADC path. This allows you to choose whether the Audient Mic Preamp or the DAW outputs are sent to the outboard, per channel, and all without having to plug or unplug any cables. And if external analogue mic preamps are to be recorded, the iD48 Returns can be used to bypass the Audient Mic Preamp, providing a very clean and direct conversion path for recording.
The iD48 is not only a powerful USB-C audio interface, but also offers everything you need to control monitoring in the studio. Speakers or other hardware can be connected for monitoring via the main and alto speaker outputs, but also via the additional line outputs.
Two fully independent stereo headphone amplifiers, with a dynamic range of 124 dB and enough power for headphones up to 600 ohms, offer the possibility to mix confidently through headphones.

With the configurable function buttons, each of the powerful monitoring functions of the iD48
such as Speaker Select, Dim or Mono Sum can be assigned to the two dedicated hardware function buttons.

The iD48’s innovative talkback technology can also be utilised, allowing a USB
microphone or the computer’s built-in microphone as a dedicated talkback microphone, freeing up the microphone preamps for recording.
