Ottima qualit e contruzione.
Testato con CUBASE 11 LE funziona molto bene, qualit di construzione eccezionale, tutto in alluminio e altri metalli appare indistruttibile; anche le spie sull’interfaccia sono molto utili per verificare l’arrivo del segnale audio e midi ed eventuale saturazione dell’audio in ingresso identificato con la spia rossa sui due canali.
Quasi inutile il software in dotazione anche perch dalla descrizione non si capisce di quale progremma si tratta, tanto vale non mettere nulla, fare 10 euro di sconto e lasciare che l’utente acquisti il programma che preferisce !
I haven’t recorded since the late noughties and at the time it was still 4/8 track analogue recorders, so moving to digital and using an interface like this was a big step. I love it though. The unit is plug and play, I use it directly with my iPad Pro and it’s awesome. Had to buy a usb-c lead to connect to my iPad but once done it works like a dream. Two inputs for guitar and mic, simple controls and the sound on the iPad is amazing. Love this and worth the 120 or so.
Mi antigua M-box dejo de funcionar al actualizar software, tanto en mac como en pc y esta ha sido llegarme, conectar y empezar a funcionar con los diferentes softwares de edicin que tengo. Mejor calidad que mi antigua tarjeta, ms econmica y ms prestaciones sin software.Tiene 4 salidas y Direct Monitor variable entre muchas otras opciones de acceso directo en la parte trasera. Recomendable al 100%.
Das Rubix 24 ist ein Interface, das ohne Aufwand sowohl mit Linux und Windows funktioniert. Die Anschlsse 2 Mono-Eingnge (1xStereo) (optional einzeln 42V, 1x Hi-Z) , 4 Mono ausgnge (2x Stereo), MIDI-In/Out, Stereo-Monitor schaffen vielfltige Einsatzmglichkeiten. Routing ber Jack (Linux) oder ASIO/Voicemeter(Windows). Nehme bei mir keine negativen Strungen wahr.
Lsst sich wie eine normale Soundkarte fr eingehende und ausgehende Audiosignale nutzen. Zur Einbindung und Verwendung in Musik/Audiosoftware sollte man sich etwas mit den jeweiligen Programmen tiefer beschftigen. Was nicht immer Intuitiv ist, jedoch nicht am Gert liegt.
Die beiliegende Dokumentation ist etwas drftig.
Fazit: Bin sehr zufrieden, Sicher geht es besser. Dann wird es auch schnell teuer.
Great unit for being able to play and record guitar into a GarageBand track. Haven’t used the microphone input yet but will try later. Control is simple and its pure plug and play when connected to my Mac Book Pro. No additional power source needed as it powers via the USB/C-Type connection to the PC. If you’re using the newer apple PC (like me) then you’ll need a USB to C-Type converter cable which can be got for less than a fiver on Amazon. Its a great unit from Roland, and I’m happy with it.
La tarjeta es excelente en calidad e instalacin muy sencilla, es bsicamente conectarla al Macbook y ya la reconoci. Diales de calidad, no tiene holguras ni chisporroteos. Es toda metal, con lo cual puede aguantar una portabilidad constante de arriba a abajo. Si viajas y quieres llevrtela… es algo importante.
Bajsimo lag y ningn tipo de interferencia.
El problema que le veo es que no tira bien de mis auriculares de baja impedancia, no me genera volmen suficiente, no tiene garra. En los monitores s va bien, en los auris no.
Tiene alimentacin por usb tipo B o por micro usb. (algo anticuado el micro usb la verdad)
En general satisfecho para grabar cosas nivel amateur avanzado.
I bought it for voice and guitar recording and was also looking for a device with midi connectivity to use along with my electric piano. This interface was easy to configure, I did not have any issues (besides maybe I did not know that loopback must be turned off to make it work right with DAW). Works well with Ableton. I saw some comments that it was crashing, but most likely they are outdated, I haven’t seen any crash along with Ableton 11.
Qualit costruttiva.pesante cos non me lo aspettavo.un altro pianeta rispetto ad altri brand.comodo la funzione del compressore con tasto fisico.secondo me ovviamente.
Used for Zoom Hybrid lectures. Its well built. Worked well out of the box. Important to load drivers first before plugging USB in. The input LEDs turn red when overloaded. You just turn down the gain until it turns green on the input. Has low latency which is important on Zoom
Downsides
1. Its a shame that Amazon were out of stock as they were 35 cheaper than the marketplace suppliers
2. Only Windows drivers available
3. draws the full 500mA from the USB so a separate PSU would be better.
So what I like about this over the last interface I bought (M-Audio 192/6) is the headroom. It shows clip lights when there is still plenty of room left, where as the latter makes clip sounds. This interface shows a red light but doesn’t digitally clip, meaning it can handle louder sounds going in.
Perfect for the hardware user that will justvplug their mixer out straight in for recording.
I wish I had seen this product first.
Es ist sehr bersichtlich und entspricht allen erwartungen.
Das eigenrauschen ist nur mit starker verstrkung und Kompression wahrnehmbar, auch wenn man seine Gitarre im High-Gain bereich spielt bekommt man vom Rauschen nicht viel mit.
An Ausgang 1-2 ist meine Anlage angeschlossen und an 3-4 Aktivlautsprecher welche ich hauptschlich fr den Sprach- und Videochat nutze. Musik (Loudness) und Sprache (angehobene Mitten) voneinander zu Trennen gibt einen enormen Qualittsanstieg fr beides. Geroutet wird das ganze ber Voicemeter und luft mit ASIO gefhlt Latenzfrei.
Wenn ich ber Reaper live Gitarre spiele und es ber VoiceMeter geroutet wird, ist die Latenz kaum zu spren.
Der ASIO-Treiber und as Gert tun hier wirklich erstklassige Arbeit, auch wenn der ASIO Treiber sehr rudimentr ist: es lsst sich bei mir nur der Buffer einstellen, die Abtastrate muss ich teils etwas umstndlich in der Software konfigurieren welche auf das Gert zugreift (manchmal beit sich da was).
Probleme mit dem Treiber hatte ich zwischenzeitlich nur am Desktop und nur wenn andere Software auf Windows Audio zugreifen wollte; Manchmal hat VirtualBox das Interface raus geworfen, mal war es ein (Early Acces) Game. Das Problem habe ich jedes mal damit gelst indem ich den Schalter zur Stromversorgung umgelegt und in VoiceMeter die Audio Engine neu gestartet habe.
Das Gert lsst sich Problemlos ber USB2 betreiben, die zustzliche Stromversorgung nutze ich nur wenn ich am Laptop arbeite und den Akku schonen mchte.
Fazit: Top Gert zu Fairem Preis
Muy muy bien perfecta, material de calidad robusta y sin tener que instalar nada en macbook air, conectar usb y lista en Garagband, Logic o cualquier DAW
I have it connected up to my dj decks and laptop to enable me to do high quality streaming / recording.
El bicho pesa, carcasa metlica robusta. Si estas pensando en moverla de aqu para all yo me lo pensara.
Ottima interfaccia, dopo svariate ricerche ed informazioni, la scelta si rivelata “perfetta” !!
Sopratutto per il fatto di avere un compressore/limiter incorporato (molto efficace) !!
Weitere Hardware; PC- MSI X370 MB, Crucial Ram, Ryzen 7 1700x, Beyerdynamic 770 80ohm, Tbone SC 400 Mic.
Klang in Discord, ingame- astrein. (kein Matsch, kein rauschen).
Habe auch das Beringer 502 getestet. Ein Unterschied wie Spielotheken Baguette und Mutti Essen.
In der Anwendung eine Empfehlung.

Worked straight out of the box on my Mac. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because trying to get the balance between the backing track and the live vocal on Garageband using headphones can be a bit fiddly ie. if you turn the backing track down because it’s too loud it turns the vocal down as well. Other than that I recommend. Well built and a reasonable price.
Esta bastante bien para realizar grabaciones a un nivel casi profesional.
Perfecta!! Precio-calidad de lo mejor del mercado, plug and play real, diseo robusto, sonido ntido, 0 latencia.
March la perfection. Reu cependant avec un petit dfaut d’aspect. Je n’ai pas voulu le retourner car je l’utilise dans arrt.
De tamao es ms grande que la scarlett lo cual se agradece porque sino quedan todos los cables demasiado juntos, tiene la opcin Hi z para instrumentos de alta impedancia como guitarras.
Una targeta old school con los mejor de las clsicas y lo mejor de las modernas.
I’m really impressed with this product. It was very simple to use even for someone with very little knowledge when it comes to audio equipment. I really love that it’s grounded, a feature I couldn’t really find on any of the cheaper interfaces.
Great sound and easy to use. Low latency. Includes a license for Ableton Live Lite 10.
It works with ipad too
Una tarjeta ideal para uso domstico, con una excelente calidad de grabacin.
Easy set up once you’ve downloaded the software pull out the microphone and plug it back in again if it doesn’t work
Keep an eye on the price before buying as fluctuates especially around sale times
Largement au dessus de Scarlet en terme de qualit de fabrication et en qualit sonore. Et vachement moins chre !
Bonne carte son, enregistrement sans souffle, zro latence lorsque je joue avec mes VST grce aux pilotes ASIO natifs.
Bonne fabrication, solide, prvoir une alimentation externe pour l’enregistrement en 48V car l’USB ne suffira videmment pas alimenter l’interface dans ce cas. J’en suis trs satisfait.
Un autre monde pour toutes personnes qui fait de la M.A.O en plus d avoir un son tip top, sa soulage vraiment le pc au niveau de la mmoire et du coprocesseur. Puis Roland c est l exprience.

Really great build quality. Great sound. Quick and easy setup with my MacBook.
Updated: Returning this as it stopped working after 2 weeks. Seemed fine until then though. Faulty model.
Die Lieferung kam innerhalb eines Tages.
Nach dem Auspacken war ich berrascht.
Ein sehr handliches Gert und doch recht schwer.
Was Sucher die solide Verarbeitung ausmacht.
Alle Regler sind nicht zu leichtgngig, die LEDs sehr gut, aber nicht aufdringlich.
Die Funktionen Mono und Kompressor/Limiter funktionieren recht gut.
Die Treiber fr Windows 10 werden auf der Website von Roland herunter geladen, was problemlos funktionierte.
Also Treiber installiert, Rubix angeschlossen und alls funktionierte problemlos.
Kein Knacksen, keine Aussetzer und super Klang.
Bravo Roland.
Ich kann das Rubix 24 nur empfehlen.
I’m very happy with the sound and so far no complaints at all.

So far, so good with this interface, easy to setup, clean, balanced sound and great quality. The lights help when checking signals and the device can be run with a power source, as well as via USB. Ableton Live Lite is always nice to receive as a freebie too.
The one thing I would change, would be to add markers for the dials, although most interfaces sold today don’t seem to have them anymore. But nevertheless, it’s not a big issue.
I would definitely recommend this interface.
I had previously bought an Audient Id4 but had various problems getting it to work with any consistency – great hardware but, (probably) driver/Win 10 issues, meant I reluctantly returned it. A sad day. Amazon were good, no return problems.
I spent ages looking and looking at reviews after returning the Id4. I wasn’t convinced about any usb 2 audio interface under 200. Arrgh.
However because of the YouTube posted review I decided to take a chance on the Roland Rubix22. It seemed to be a good value too. I looked at US prices and it was retailing at $149 or thereabouts.
Compared to the Audient the Rubix was easy and painless to install and get up and running. Download the AISO drivers and away you go – just follow the included instructions. Easy.
The interface is a well made robust metal black box (rubber feet and weighty too, so it will not move about). It has has good quality 3pin XLR (or jack) inputs. The ‘pots’ are smooth and even rubberised on the input knobs. Nice detail.
On the front face there are the ‘ins’, HI-Z guitar and Mic with phantom power push buttons, a separate headphone input, with a dedicated control dial and a large output volume dial. There is a main power light and also lights which react with the input strength of the ‘ins ‘. A bit primitive but its not a deal breaker and to be honest at this price it’s standard, more or less.
It’s at the back of the unit where I was sold on this little box. There are the 2 jack outs, a ground lift switch, a direct mono/stereo monitor switch, midi in and out, the usb port and a separate 5v DC power source which may come in handy for some folks. At this price point pretty good eh!
I’ve only had it for a few days but I am really impressed how it works and I am impressed with its audio quality. How to describe that is difficult, each to his own. I didn’t notice any difference in sound quality when compared to the ID4. I use some Mordaunt-Short Avant 902i. which I consider as budget quality small speaker, for monitoring and some Sennheiser HD555 headphones. So its basic stuff really. If I spent another 500 to upgrade stuff I may hear more ‘quality’ possibly? I’m old, so I may not, who cares!
I have recorded, bass, guitars, and vocals without any issues except the usual fiddling about getting stuff right!.
I have only have an i3 6100 8gb ram computer, so its modest to say the least. Latency has not been an issue as there is a simple latency buffer setting – 10ms is my aim at 48000kHz which gives me a modest 288 samples. It is a complicated issue, but is fine for me, as I will only use this at home. There are workarounds too but that’s another topic!
Recommended as a starter audio interface.

bentigte. Denn in YouTube gibt es jede Menge Videos von allen auf dem Markt befindlichen Interfaces die zeigen das man Gitarre, Bass singen usw. zeigt, toll.
Dieses Interface funktioniert bei mir mit einem Apple Airbook i5 Prozessor 4GB RAM
mit BFD 3 und Studio Drummer bei 48000 kHz 128 Sample bei 4,7ms.
Somit eine sehr geringe Latenz.
