Portable audio interface with great I/O and quality Guitar Amp and Cubase LE 4 software.

ESI's UGM96 USB Audio Adapter offers you an ultra-mobile, guitar-and-microphone-to-USB audio interface that allows you to connect 2 guitars (via the Hi-Z instrument inputs) or 1 guitar and 1 microphone simultaneously to your PC or Mac.

The backside offers a stereo output that you can use for monitoring with headphones. This makes the ESI UGM96 adapter the perfect companion for guitar recording applications on the road or in your studio. You can use the UGM96 audio adapter to jam with a guitar and microphone, process the signal with your PC or Mac notebook or desktop in realtime and listen to the mix directly via headphones. No special adapters or extra power supplies are needed. Simply plug the UGM96 adapter between your guitar, headphones, the microphone and your computer, and you're ready to lay down some tracks.

ESI bundles the UGM96 USB guitar and mic adapter with Cubase LE 4, the powerful multichannel recording software from Steinberg. ESI also includes the Virtual Guitar Amp plug-in from Gallo Engineering that can be used within Cubase LE 4 on both Mac and PC and even standalone (Windows only) via the UGM96 adapter's control panel software. On the Mac, Virtual Guitar Amp also works nicely in other applications such as Garage Band.

A soundcard for guitar players

Posted by handson from Oakland, California on May 7, 2009

I bought a laptop and needed a soundcard. I'm a guitar player. This soundcard seemed to be exactly what I needed. I was a little reluctant because I did not know esi. But I decided to give it a try for $100.-. Setting up was a breeze. My favorite application is Amplitube Fender. I literately don't hear any latency. Band in a Box sounds good. Realband works without hickups, and that is quite an achievement. The Studio Devil amp that comes with it is nice. A tech 21 type of emulation. The guitar sound you get from it is british (XTC came to mind). If you are a guitar player and you need a sound card consider this one. (Oh yeah, I'm running vista 32 bit)
