The Audient EVO 8 USB Audio Interface is a 4-in, 4-out USB audio interface designed for musicians, podcasters and content creators.
EVO 8 provides ultra low latency performance delivering clean, detailed sound with 4 x EVO Mic Preamps and class-leading converters. The microphone inputs on the back are combi jacks and will take XLR microphone and regular jack inputs at line level. For guitar, a Hi‑Z input is located on the front, and routes to channel 1. This is run by JFET transistor technology for some added tone.
EVO 8 comes with a USB-C cable which provides 48v phantom power across all 4 inputs - if using a USB-C to USB-A this will only be able to power two inputs over bus powering. There are two excellent sounding headphone outputs with individual volume control for monitoring.
