ZoomAMS-44 Audio Interface
1/9
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Zoom's AMS-44 is a four-input audio interface arranged for recording and streaming from the same front end. In Music mode, each input stays independent with its own gain control and separate headphone mixes. Switching to Streaming mode combines the inputs for streaming software. Direct Monitor lets you hear the input in headphones while also sending it to a DAW or stream, while Loopback adds computer playback to the outgoing stream. Input 1 can be set for mic, line, or Hi-Z guitar level, and two inputs can be linked for stereo work.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Recording four independently controlled inputs while sending separate mixes to the two headphone outputs.
- Livestreaming combined input audio, computer playback, or live vocals with an instrumental track.
- Recording or streaming a stereo source by linking two inputs under one gain control.
