I’ve use this in old macs, pc and an m4 Mac mini. Pros -The analog converters are great and high quality. -It has 3.5 and 6.3mm connectors which is nice. -The loop back option is very handy. -The build quality feels good, knobs specially feel very good. Cons -The headphone output leaves a lot to be desired, if you have demanding headphones you’ll definitely need an amp. -The printed logos on the interface started to disappear, they are not durable at all. -Probably the biggest con, there is not a switch that allows you to go from headphones to monitors, you can only mute the monitors but that’s not really that useful. Overall great product, If I had to buy an audio interface again I may take a look into the volt interfaces but this one is a top contender. Review: Wow! - I decided to upgrade from Scarlett 2i2 to ID4 MKII seeing reviews/hearing samples...but it blew me away at the very first tone I sang. The clarity of the tone, the smoothness of it, the natural response completely enveloped me. I have it paired with Sennheiser MK4 large diaphragm condenser mic and it sounds amazing thru reference headphones or speakers in my small recording studio. The recordings made in the studio were equally crystal clear, natural tone and beautiful. The gain of the interface paired very nicely with the MK4 mic, at about 60%. The clarity of headphone output and powerful level of it is outstanding. However...somehow I found it flat in a live performance in open space paired with Sennheiser dynamic E835 mic. Not sure why...but same setup/mic/speaker/gain was much crisper and pronounced with Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, with or without its pretty Air mode. I use a USB interface to both record live but also as my solo mixer with top notch quality preamps into stage speakers. So while I was looking for a replacement interface for both studio and live setups, I've discovered that Focusrite just sounded better for live performance to me, whereas Audient ID4 MKII sounded amazing for studio and recordings. Perhaps my dynamic mics benefited more from brightness of Scarlett, especially when using its Air mode. So for Audient ID4 MKII: A++ Winner!!!! best I've tried to date for studio use/recordings! Portable size: A+. Preamps quality A++. Gain/Dynamic Range for Condenser Mics: A+ Headphones level/clarity: A+. Latency for DAW monitoring: A. (32MB buffer was maximum without the doubling/latency effect @48kHz for my setup). ## Features - The new successor: Due to the great success of the Audient iD4, the audio experts had the project to bring the successor iD4 MKII to the next outstanding sonic level. - Harmonious overall package: Thanks to new transducer technology and Class-A microphone preamplifier from Audient's high-end ASP8024 HE console, home recording is taken to the next level. - New connector: The new Audient iD4 MKII now has a high-speed USB-C connector, so handling is easier and power supply is improved! Now there's no more need for lots of different cables! - Long life: The all-metal desktop housing provides stability and durability on the move. Now you can easily take your audio interface with you and always have it at hand. - Scope of delivery: Audient audio interface iD4 MKII - Class A console microphone preamplifier - Mac/PC/iOS compatible - USB C cable (1m) - Dimensions: 133x120x40.7 mm - Weight: 740 g - Colour: Black ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08SBSN88X | | Audio Input | USB | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,560 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #22 in Computer Recording Audio Interfaces | | Brand Name | Audient | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (1,379) | | Frequency Response | 96 KHz | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 4.72"D x 5.2"W x 1.57"H | | Item Type Name | Sound interface | | Item Weight | 740 Grams | | Manufacturer | Audient | | Maximum Sample Rate | 96 KHz | | Number of Channels | 2 | | Operating System | Mac, iOS | | Supported Software | Steinberg Cubase Le + Cubasis Le 2, Steinberg Retrologue 2 Synth, Twonotes Wall of Sound, Loopmasters Sample Pack | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 3 year manufacturer. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Audient - **Compatible Devices:** Personal Computer - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Number of Channels:** 2 ## Images ![Audio Interface iD4 MKII, Class A Console Microphone Preamp (High Speed USB-C, Monitor Mix and Monitor Panning Function, 2 Headphone Outputs, Mac/PC/iOS Compatible), Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ahr5MaWRL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I use a Phantom Powered Microphone with iD4?** A: The iD4’s preamp provides full phantom power, for use with condenser microphones! You also have a DI JFET input for great sounding DI’s! **Q: Will the iD4 work on iOS and iPadOS?** A: The iD4 is class compliant, meaning you can run this with your iOS devices for recording on the go. A Powered USB hub and Camera Connection kit is required on devices that use the Apple Lightning port. **Q: Will the iD4 have enough power to drive my high impedance headphones?** A: The iD4 features a powerful headphone amp that can drive headphones at a good volume, all the way up to 600 ohms! **Q: Will I be able to direct monitor with my iD4?** A: With the monitor mix knob on the iD4, you can easily blend between monitoring your interface inputs or outputs, or any mix of the two! **Q: Will I be able to record my guitar and microphone at the same time with the iD4?** A: As the iD4’s two inputs appear separately in your DAW, you can record the DI and microphone preamps at the same time on two separate channels for individual processing and routing. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice quality audio! *by N***R on February 21, 2026* Okay so first of all this is a great audio interface, I’ve used it for around 3 years now with no major issues.

No interface is beating it in its price range in terms of pure sound. Where it does fall short ( and it wasn't an issue for my needs) is few inputs and low headphone output. The latter was solved using a headphone amp. If you need more inputs, I would reccomend the next level up. ## Frequently Bought Together - Audient Audio Interface iD4 MKII, Class A Console Microphone Preamp (High Speed USB-C, Monitor Mix and Monitor Panning Function, 2 Headphone Outputs, Mac/PC/iOS Compatible), Black - Amazon Basics XLR Male to Female Microphone Cable for Speaker or PA System, All Copper Conductors, 6MM PVC Jacket, 6 Foot, Black - Audio-Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Studio XLR Microphone, Ideal for Project/Home Studio Applications --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/281859334-audio-interface-id4-mkii-class-a-console-microphone-preamp-high](https://www.desertcart.at/products/281859334-audio-interface-id4-mkii-class-a-console-microphone-preamp-high) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
