Steinberg IXO Recording Pack

Full Description

Everything you need to achieve studio-grade recordings

The Steinberg IXO Recording Pack is an all-in-one recording solution for a range of applications from capturing vocal and instrument recordings to podcasting and livestreaming. Complete with the IXO22 audio interface are the ST-M01 condenser microphone and the ST-H01 monitoring headphones.

The ST-M01 is a premium-quality condenser mic which provides clear and detailed sound reproduction with a wide frequency range. It is ideal for capturing high-quality vocals, interviews, podcasting, live streaming and certain instruments. The ST-H01 monitoring headphones provide an ultra-accurate listening experience with neutral sound reproduction for a transparent sound. The closed-back design isolates your sound and helps to minimise bleed levels.

24-bit/192kHz audio resolution for pristine sound quality

The Steinberg IXO22 USB-C Audio Interface is equipped with premium converters that guarantee exceptional audio quality. With a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz and 24-bit resolution, these converters ensure that every detail of your recordings is captured accurately. The hardware designers at Steinberg have carefully selected the best components to optimize the analog to digital conversion process, resulting in maximized audio fidelity throughout the entire recording process.

Loopback functionality for livestreaming

The IXO22 interface features a convenient Loopback function that allows you to easily stream your performances live to the internet. This is particularly useful for hosting online broadcasts. By merging incoming audio signals from sources such as microphones, musical instruments, or line sources with playback software on your computer, such as Cubase or another DAW, you can effortlessly broadcast high-quality audio online using your preferred streaming software.

Zero-latency, real-time monitoring

With the IXO22 interface, you can enjoy latency-free direct hardware monitoring. This means that you can listen to the input signal in real-time while recording, without any noticeable delay. This feature enables you to make instant adjustments and ensures that you have full control over your recordings. Additionally, the IXO22 model offers an extra input and the option to choose between mono or stereo direct monitoring, giving you even more flexibility in your recording setup.
