Still struggling with the software.
It's been a month since I bought the Audient iD14 mk2 and I still have problems with it. In the beginning, it just didn't work (I followed the installa instructions step by step). Then I realize that I had to have the charger of the laptop connected in order to be able to use the equipment.
On the other hand, I have tried to record music by using the Adobe Audition software. The software recognizes the Audient hardware but there is no signal entering, so I couldn't record anything for the moment. I will continue looking for solutions. Maybe it's just that I had to use the recording software provided by Audient. I really don't know.
It was far easier with the Line 6 UX1. Just plug and use.
Audient ID24 - small, but fatal flaw
The Audient ID24 is a solid unit and has great controls. However they missed one simple thing that is a major pain. You setting (everything including volume) reset whenever your computer powers down. This means that even the volume goes back to 0. And ever time you start your PC, you need to open up the ID app, and increase the volume - or do it from the interface. ( not to mention all the other settings for volume, pan, etc on each of the inputs). This would be such a simple thing to fix, but I confirmed with the support team that this unit doesn't do that. They said the software for the iD44 MKII, and iD48 do have the option to store an output volume. For the price tag on the ID24, this blows my mind. I have a Scarlett 2i2 4th Generation that was half the price and has more functionality. The only reason I got the ID24 was that I needed the extra inputs. But I do regret buying the ID24, and am using the 2i2 most of the time so that I don't have to deal with having to reset all my settings every time my computer powers on/off.
It is a expensive unit that should include the ability to retain even the most basic volume setting. If it not for the inconvenience that I have to deal with every day, I would say the unit is good. Not sure how such a simple usability feature was left out for something that is otherwise so well engineered.
Super well-made piece of kit
Super well-made piece of kit. Really intuitive, great feeling encoders. Preamps sound good. Only thing id say is the gain 'on-ramp' is very very steep between 8-10, can go from a touch quiet to way way too loud with a tiny movement. overall a great product though.
Perfect for guitar
Perfect for guitar! I compared an Audient ID4 to Focusrite SOLO 3rd an MOTU M2. Audient wins in every way possible. Love the preamps.

different adjustablity of headphone-monitor thing is good.also way much silenced than my previous card.
top!
I did not use all the bells and whistles of my id48 yet, but I am very happy with it so far! Preamps are very clean sounding with lots of headroom. The AD/DA conversion is top notch

I bought a beautiful sound card ID 24 and I'm really happy with my purchase. The only problem is the letters. Not very easy to see them in the software.

After setup on iPad II with GarageBand sporadically signal from micro or guitar was distored and had low level. No error message showed up.

Id4 sounds good but setting volume is a pain - very low res indicators, endless encoder. On interface restart the volume is set back to zero. Simple act of knowing where I'm at with volume turns into endless fiddling. Unacceptable for any mixing experience. I ended up returning it.
Audient ID14 houses everything you need.…
Audient ID14 is recommended for anyone who searches a soundcart with studio quality pre-amps and a sturdy build. The instrument input delivers instantly great recordings. E.G. My Pbass with S.Duncan pick-ups-straight to input, inbuild preamp at 12 o çlock, ad one simple compressor (VST) just to tame the peaks slitly=done. Thanks to the Audient software package=not small it's huge, you are recording ready with the wonderfull Cubase&extra's. With the big knob you can adjust every parameter in Cubase&VST&VSTI-automation etc. A big hug to all the affiliated at Audient&software alliance.
I’m really glad I bought this product
I’m really glad I bought this product — it’s amazing and has truly exceeded my expectations.
The sound of the device is not good
The sound of the device is not good. it's very dark and misses presence.
Connection worked first try
Connection worked first try. I no longer need my mixer and it’s so convenient having control close by. The sound quality was very noticeable. Buy this interface.
Better sound
The sound is far better than other interfaces I've tried. The guitar is fuller, fatter, and I'm happy with it so far.
The audio interface is insanely good
The audio interface is insanely good, was easy to setup and overall quality is great!
There is only one thing that really annoy me:
I had an Evo 8 before this and the main volume of the speakers was controlled by Windows, I could then increase deacrese the volume through my keyboard, with the EVO 16, I have to turn the physical volume knob to 100 then dim the volume through Windows, this is a bit annoying to me.
Excellent work overall!
