I have the Audient ID4 MK2. That one is great if you want to record only guitar and vocals. However, in my case, as a piano player, I also have a two-channel audio interface for when I want to record my piano in stereo. I recently purchased a high-quality piano plugin for when I do not feel like recording my piano in stereo. Midi comes in handy!

I want to record my guitar directly into the front of the interface and use vst plugins. Is the Audient ID4 mkii good enough for that? Is latency good too???

Great review!! What should i choose?

How do you do it?
TNTpyros! 🔥 ☺🙏🏾 That's A Lot Ur Asking. ALL OF WHICH I Will Be GLAD TO ANSWER If You Can Stay With Me In This Thread.. So Lets Take ONE QUESTION At A Time.. Q1: For ONLY a $15 Dollar Difference.. I WOULD DEFINITELY Go With the iD14 MK II (over the EVO 4) ..AUDIENT iD14 MK II ✅
Q2: I Have Complete Confidence That The iD14 MK II Can "Drive" the DT 990 Headphones & The AKG D5.. But Where MY CONCERN Lies Is Within The CONNECTIVITY On The Back Of The EDIFIERS.. Those Seem To Be Geared Towards "Multi-Media/General House Hold" Use.. As They Are Not Equipped With a 1/4 Inch or 3 pin XLR Jack On The Back.. In Which 10/10 Times is How Speakers or STUDIO MONITORS, Connect To An Audio Interface.. I Say That To Say.. If You Could Double-Check/Confirm for Me That Your Speakers DO NOT, In Fact, Have a 1/4 or 3 Pin XLR Jack On The Back.. ..Or Do They..? In Addition To That, As I'm Genuinely Curious About Your Setup.. Are You Gaming On a PC.. (I Would Imagine Yes) or Are You Gaming Off A" Stand-Alone" Gaming Console..?
@@mastermiller9776 Yeah haha, thank you for taking your time and answering everything. Really appreciate it!! :D Q1: Sounds good, definitely will buy that then! Q2: Nice that it is powerful enough for the headphones and microphone! Thank you for giving me information about the connection. Didn't think about that. Yeah I understand your concern, I use it with RCA to 3.5mm to my Sound BlasterX G6 right now. It can go They do not have a 1/4 or 3 pin XLR jack on the back. The speaker have RCA inputs, optical input and coaxial input. I am gaming on a pc :)
@@TNTpyros Okay, Okay.. So Off of Q2: .. IF YOU CHOOSE TO Incorporate The iD14 MKII Then U Will Ultimately End Up Looking For Another Pair Of Speakers (This Time Around Something Geared Towards RECORDING STUDIO USE That Has Proper CONNECTIVITY To Connect To The iD14 MK II. Q3: AUDIO INTERFACES Don't Really Work Like That, To Where Ur "Switching" Between Audio Sources. Other Units Referred to As "MONITOR CONTROLLERS" Do.. But With The iD14 MK II, You Set Up Ur ROUTING (of AUDIO SOURCES) How U Want Them In The SOFTWARE MIXER and Then Ur Just Setting Ur Volume For Those Active Channels You've Set Up and Rolling With That. Adjusting Levels on the fly if need be. Q4: Driving The D5 Should Not Be A Problem.. at All. Q5: With The mute/unmute of the MIC Used With An Audio Interface. There Really is NO "QUICK MIC MUTE" Function.. At Least That I've Seen. There Is a "DIM" Function That Is Designed For "Dimming" The Volume Of Audio Playback So Persons In The Studio Can Communicate Easier At Any Given Moment. But If Ur Wanting To MUTE The MIC.. You'd Have To Press The "M" Button (MUTE), On The Respective MIC Channel In The AUDIENT iD Software Mixer. 🙏🏾..Hope This Helps.
@@mastermiller9776 Thank you for the amazing answer!! :D Q2: I've talked with audient and they said that I only need a RCA to TS cable for it to work with Audient ID4 Mkii or EVO 4. Q3: Hm okey, on EVO 4 it is fast to take out the headphone cable, then it's switching to speaker sound. Q4: Oh okey, nice! Q5: Then I think EVO 4 is faster, only hold down channel button to mute the microphone. Thank you again for your time, really appreciate it!!
