Overview

The US-122L is a USB-based audio inter- face designed for use with Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software. It provides a two-input, two-output 24-bit 96 kHz audio interface and a 16-channel MIDI interface.

Because the US-122L is USB-based, it is the ideal companion to any desktop- or laptop-based digital recording setup. And

since the US-122L operates using only USB power, you can use it with a laptop computer to create a very compact and portable digital audio workstation system.

The US-122L is also an ideal way to cap- ture analog sources such as records or cas- sette tapes into your computer and pre- serve them as audio CDs.
