Audient iD2+ MK3: integrate your analog gear into your recording setup

The Audient iD2+ MK3 is a desktop audio interface with 10 inputs and 14 outputs via USB-C for producers who want to combine digital recording with external processing. Its two Audient Console preamps offer 75 dB of clean gain and Smartgain, while the balanced inserts on channels 1 and 2 allow you to incorporate compressors, equalizers, and other processors before the signal reaches the DAW.

The 32-bit conversion, 128 dB dynamic range, and sampling rates of up to 192 kHz are complemented by DSP effects and analog-character tools. RoomTune also integrates monitor correction with the included RM1 Reference microphone to help compensate for the room's influence on monitoring. It is compatible with Mac and Windows and is powered via USB-C.

What makes the Audient iD2+ MK3 special?

It allows you to build a recording chain with external analog processing directly from the interface. The balanced sends and returns on channels 1 and 2 incorporate your gear into the signal path before the DAW. You can process a vocal with your compressor or equalizer and continue production on the computer without sacrificing hardware control.

The Analogue Tone Suite adds options for shaping the preamp sound: HMX adds warmth via a discrete MOSFET circuit, LIFT adds brightness, and GLOW combines both functions. ORBIT offers Punch, Smooth, and Vintage profiles to vary the microphone's character. Hardware-accelerated DSP effects include equalization, compression, and reverb with no latency, while the JFET input allows you to connect a guitar or bass.

For monitoring, the two stereo monitor outputs feature dedicated hardware controls. The two headphone outputs allow you to work with two mixes for artists, making it easy to adjust monitoring during a session. RoomTune and the included RM1 Reference microphone complete the monitor adjustment tools, while ADAT connectivity offers a way to expand your studio connections.
