Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the audio midi interface. Some mention that the sound is very good, has similar quiet pre-amps, and handles 192kHz without any issues. However, others say that they hear a loud high pitch ringing issue, a persistent high frequency, and dim sounding inputs.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This thing worked right out of the box (on Mac, so no drives needed), and I love it. I've been struggling figuring out a music workflow for years, and finally this + Ableton Live + an Arturia controller I've had forever and I've recorded almost twenty demos in a month. And having the ability to plug my bass or guitar directly into this and record DI is killer for quickly getting ideas out.
I couldn't be happier. I'll update this if I have latency issues in the future, but this box is so good.
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2024
It was placed on my desk with me beside my MIDI keyboard and I found if you're a gamer, and you tend to rage, or abuse your desk it may have potential to damage your interface.
A forceful slam on my desk made the headphone input lose audio in the right ear, so the headphone jack is a little less durable.
But on the bright side of things, I'd have to recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing interface for a mid range budget.
With a full metal casing, two ports for XLR and 1/4 inch cables, audio monitoring, phantom power, easy install, and easy plug in, how could I not recommend this?
As well as having 1/4 inch BALANCED TRS outputs in the back and two ways to power the device.
It's very comprehensive, simplistic, yet a powerful little interface.
I've had no need to contact the support team with how easy going this interface is, and it reads directly into my DAW or OBS software after the driver setup.
It requires a little bit of tampering in your control panel to get it working inside of game chats, and Discord, Zoom, or the like.
Easy fix is the set it as your default device, and if it still doesn't work, try another usb port on your motherboard.
Hope this helps! and happy recording!
This is a good solution for a non-professional project studio if precise level setting is not a big issue. Unfortunately, without that software, this is more of a consumer-level product.
I'm running a Windows 10 Machine (RYZEN 1700X/VEGA 64). DAW is Bitwig.
No issues with installation, Bitwig recognized it no problem. I also am using the dedvices as a Midi In/Out and that works flawlessly as well. Delay is minimal in the headphones, sounds quality is excellent, and its easy to use. No complaints!!

On a side note, if you are going to keep both levels at 12 o clock, it should work fine.
- excellent recording fidelity;
- 192kHz 24bit recording quality;
- four preamps;
- phantom power for condenser microphones;
- Linux compatibility, with no software dependancies; and
- high quality assurance standards.
Those are worth CAD400 to me, and I got those with the Rubix44. As a bonus I got features like loopback and compressors, and another 192kHz 24bit digital to analog converter for listening. I love my Resonnessence Herus, but in hindsight I would have bought the Rubix44 first and then the Herus.
Twitch streamers like Shroud have made equipment like Focusrite's Scarlett or Behringer's products popular, but none of those sounded good enough to me. I looked into tube-based audio interfaces, and every YouTube review sounded bad, despite being recorded by enthusiasts. Then I started watching videos reviewing the Rubix44, and each one sounded good, no matter who recorded it.
Watch reviews yourself. The Rubix44 came out in 2019, so there weren't too many when I looked, but that's bound to change.
A good condenser mic like an MXL 990 or a Røde NT1a sounds great on this thing. A Fender Stratocaster loses none of its chirpy character when plugged in directly.
