I think auto gain is a great feature too. I'm not too lazy to learn how to set gain, I just have no meters on any of my devices or and I cant see within Zoom Meetings or Camtasia what it actually is. Auto gain, just gets rid of one more variable to mess up. Was actually going to get the Motu 2 to replace my Steinburg simply for the LED Meters on it.
I have been using this wonderful interface for a month now. I have to admit the design of EVO4 screams that they don't really like "physical knobs" in general. (e.g. having only one knob, smart gain, software controls, and the elimination of the need to set the knob while switching between the headphones and the monitors, etc.) I also dropped it by accident from a height of 50cm and the knob detached and also the lid halfly opened. Fortunately nothing got broken but I suggest you handle this little toy with delicacy esp. when everyone is complaining about the plastic.
I think the smart gain is the best selling point. It’s not just for people that don’t know how to set gain, but for people who don’t have studio headphones to really be sure gain is just right.
Great review. I've been looking for a budget audio solution for around $100 for streaming, because frankly the GoXLR Mini at $250 is way too much for entry level, and I don't know enough about interfaces and mixer to know what's going to be good for a beginner like me. You set it up nicely and explained it well enough I feel I learned some thanks for the review!
Really great budget option for starting out at decent level would be Behringer UMC202HD / 204HD (if you need MIDI I/O for keyboard/instruments), ultra low noise and great sounding. Other options Audient, Native Instruments Komplete Audio 1 and 2, Mackie Artist and Producer, PreSonus Audiobox iTWO, M-Audio AIR 192/4 and 192/6, Focusrite 2i2, (I don't recommend Steinberg at this price point, issues with Win10 and only low noise not ultra low noise, even though their sound quality is on pair with Audient). Audient EVO is really great option for both microphone ultra low noise, great RreAmp/ADC quality and Headphone DAC/AMP quality at this price point. You will be able to drive any microphone and any pair of headphones on this with sufficient quality that you will be happy about it. With Behringer 202HD / 204HD you will be also happy about microphone quality and headphone quality, but it won't be able to drive high impedance headphones properly (like Sennheiser HD650 at 300ohm or Beyerdynamic 880 at 250ohm). For great Audio Interface at this price point, you cannot go wrong with Audient, Native Instrument and Mackie. Then you got Focusrite, PreSonus, M-Audio and Behringer, I don't include Steingberg because of OS and Mic Noise level with Dynamic mic at this price point.
I just purchased the Evo 4 about two weeks ago. I’m using it for some at desk voiceover and training video work with an AT4053B boom microphone, because I don’t want a microphone in the video shot. I think the overall result is quite good.
Roland quad capture has smart gain function many years ago..both Motu M2 and Evo 4 has high dynamic range that make these 2 audio interfaces very special.and this guy is making awesome videos.
Great video! Other than the product itself which I just purchased after your review, I laughed my butt off with your intro re: the box. That was too good and funny! Keep up the outstanding work. Between you, Curtis Judd and Booth Junkie, I am purchasing products with confidence. Thank you for all you do. Ernie :)
I'm not massive on the smartgain, looks good for new users or people who change equipment around a lot - but I hope it opens the door for including other in-interface processing for gates and maybe even eventually a compressor
Some are saying it sounds even better than the iD4, which makes sense because it is 4 years newer. I do not think you can go far wrong with either, but I think the auto-gain feature is worth it by itself. That is one thing that can make or break a recording so I see that as worth it alone.
Best box throw ever. PS, since not every one knows about the specsl (Specially for the beginners), it would be very usefull if you said "if you don't know what these specs mean, i made a video about it, link in the description, or popup."
I have a PodMic with the 2i2 and it's not very compatible combination, need to get myself a cloud lifter to make it work which is additional money and kit annoyingly. How have you found the Podmic and Evo combination?
More preferred and recommended than recording 32 bit floating point. I was hoping for an automatic level riding feature but no. Maybe when they release a 4+ in a metal body.
I stupidly cranked up my volume to hear the noise level, expecting a "gets loud in 5, 4, 3. . .", only to blow my ears out when you started talking-OOPS! The fact that you are wearing bare feet while making these videos totally justifies all the money I'm gonna have to spend learning sign-language though, now that I'm deaf. . . great video!
Kudos for wearing a hat but no socks... underfloor heating? Thank you for this review - as someone who is new to all this this product is genuinely perfect for me. Picked one up today, combined it with my Samson Q2u and I am a very happy bunny indeed.
This is the best sub $150 interface atm...none comes close...Id also rank the MOTU M2 as the best $200 interface as well....with preamps just as good ( or better) as other brands that's priced twice as much...no kidding...skip the Focusrite ..if you wanna buy your first interface or upgrade from the cheapo that you have right now ..this is it! so damn good 👍
Great review, I mostly agree. I think if you're just trying to get your voice/instrument into the computer as cheaply as possible, this is a decent option, especially for noobs. I sympathize with you on gain setting, a lot of people just plain don't know how to set it properly, or how to position a mic for that matter, and the Smart Gain feature should help with both of those things to the benefit of the sanity of all listeners. However, I suspect that there are some dumdums out there who will use it and, because their setup sucks, they won't like what they hear and will override the gain setting to make it sound "better" anyway. For me, there's a bit I don't like about this: I don't like multi-use knobs, buttons, and meters, and this has all three. If I want to adjust something on channel one, I have to press the channel button first. That's annoying. I can't tell just by looking at it if phantom power is on for channel two, nor can I tell the gain setting. The nice thing about many knobs is that they also function as a value indicator; I can look at the knob and know immediately where it's set. The visual indications on this kinda suck for me. I can't help but keep thinking that the Motu M2 is only $40 more. It doesn't have the problems I mentioned above, plus it has MIDI. If I am going to be adjusting gain, recording different instruments, and using MIDI, the M2 absolutely kills the Evo 4 while still being extremely affordable. This is why I view this more as an interface for novices, one that is just easy to set up and get something into the computer. If you're not going to be futzing around with it much and want to let it set the gain for you, then great! This is definitely for you! But a beefier, more usable interface is not that far away in price if you need a little more. One thing I question about your audio interface reviews, and I'm not trying to be a dick but rather just bringing this up for the sake of accuracy, is whether it's valuable or not to read the latency numbers from within a DAW. I know that sometimes reported latency can vary quite a bit compared to actual latency, and I wonder if latency testing would be more valuable than reading reported numbers. I'm not trying to make your job more difficult, but I do think it would be helpful. More importantly, if reported latency isn't accurate, then maybe it's not worth including in the review. Just a thought. Modern audio interfaces tend to be low enough not to really matter anyway. Thanks again for the awesome review! I was interested in hearing more about this when it was first announced, so I'm glad to see you cover it!
I would suggest Presonus Studio 24c. Cheaper than MOTU by a hair, robust metal chassis and build plus Presonus preamps sound better than MOTU anyday. Bonus: comes with Presonus Studio One 5 artist
@@adityabali1939 It looks like it also comes with a bunch of plugins as well. Seems like a very good option. The thing that I kept hearing about the MOTU preamps is that they're very low-noise. I suppose if you want a preamp that doesn't color the sound at all, then they're not a bad option, but I bet the Presonus pres sound a lot better.
@@rars0n presonus amps are also ninja quiet. I would go with presonus studio 24c if i was in your position. In EU it costs 145€ compared to motu m2 which is €200+ I’ll still be going ahead with the EVO 4 because I’m a bedroom guitarist and I’m definitely not a singer. I don’t need a mic or anything, just a stereo input for tracking instruments. Also presonus won’t work for me because I use no MIDI devices and Presonus Studio One software is not native yet for Apple M1. In EU the Audient EVO 4 is costing less than €100 and I can save for 1 extra month to get education pricing on logic pro x which is native for Apple M1. So you see, different things for different applications. In the end i think every product is decent and option paralysis will just leave you unhappy (because option paralysis is a derivative of expectation and expectation is the root of sorrow)
Evo v/s Motu M2 ? Cuz you said in your review that Motu was the king of budget interfaces ! Does this take the throne away from it now or still the same ?
Honestly I'm not impressed by the Smart Gain feature. I think a good proper display, with a good text and even the production of a good short video would cost less and be more useful. I knew *nothing* about audio a couple of years ago, but gain setting is that hard to learn. But even if you want that, why not do it in software? *Much* cheaper to do, and only a little less usable. I'm also not impressed by their gain stage. Sure it's Audient, it's clean. But 50dB of amplification? Come on. A beginner won't have the knowledge or money to treat his room for a proper condenser usage, so I feel dynamic mics should be the main target of a "beginner interface". And the construction overall. And no mute function for the speakers. Kind of an issue for producers, if they don't use near field monitors easily accessible. But I do love the mic mute function! That's great, I wish my iD4 had that :(
You got my like as soon as I saw your hobbit feet hahaha i came for the review, I stayed for the commitment to the bit! 🤣😂 I already bought a hoodie from you, but I might get an “earthling” shirt just cuz you made me laugh out loud! 🤣😂🤣😂 love it, man! You’re awesome!
Hi Podcastage. Thank you so much for this video. At the moment I'm having problems with my current interface, so I try to choose between Evo 4 and Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen (this is because only they are available to me at the moment). But I only have AKG K240 MkII headphones (55 Ohms) (no studio monitors). Which interface will be the most reasonable in this case? Mostly I'm recording electric guitar and vocals. Thank you in advance
You said "leaves a little bit to be desired" but never followed that up. What is it you desire from the unit that it didn't provide? You only mentioned the build quality in the pros/cons part.
I found this one yesterday, which is helpful. Personally, I think the ID4's pre-amps sound better based on Gerald's comparison. Hopefully, Bandrew will do a versus between the two. ua-cam.com/video/N_QpQ_Tw5SA/v-deo.html
Hey! New subscriber and hugely appreciative of your reviews. Any idea how the Evo stacks up to ID line? Considering the Evo 8 plus fethead plus sm7b. It’s be nice to save the extra money from the id14 but not sure what I’m missing out on other than plastic vs metal.
THIS WAS QUITE INFORMATIVE. I BENIFITTED A LOT FROM THIS AND THE OTHERS. I REQUEST YOU TO REVIEW THE SOUNDCRAFT NOTEPAD 12FX AS HOW IT PERFORMS AS AN INTERFACE, ITS PREAMPS, EIN, DYNAMIC RANGE, GAIN AND THE LIKE. THANKS AND REGARDS.
Did you just plug your Sub Ray 4 directly to the Hi-Z instrument input on this interface? No DI box or anything? No clipping issues with the active pickups of the bass? Does the Smart Gain deal with it too?
bruh, not gonna lie.... That was your best box throw ever
I was so unprepared, I burst out laughing.
There needs to be more box death fury!
Definitely!
Anthony Howie CHAMP
Agree. Also somewhere out there must be graveyard of smashed boxes.
+10 for Smartgain. +18 for box throw without shoes or even socks. Overall this thing sounds good, too.
At least we know he wears pants.
@@aussiewanderer6304 Pants are good. Thank you for wearing pants, Bandrew.
I’m just glad he didn’t use the office mullet. I swear it’s the only reason I gave him a like. 😅

Love seeing the XLR ports on the back -- much much better for desktop use.
The warning that the audio was about to get loud again ♥️ perfection
I laughed out loud when you threw the box and fell over. Cracked me up.
It's not a game changer, it's a gain changer 🤪

Audient Evo vs Motu M2 vs SSL2 vs Audient id14 🤯
he place :
1 - Audient EVO, or if you can add more money SSL2
2- SSL2
3- Motu M2
For the id14... we should wait for the Mk2 test ^^

I like how the box bounced back close to him as some sort of response and karma with him losing his balance there.

Now THAT is a proper review!👍
It’s a gain changer.
Just bought one. Watched this to learn about it. Great! thanks!
Wow man! You have best reviews ever. Thanks for such details as shown to us a roundtrip latency!

I watched that throw over and over for the length of time which would have been the video. Didn't watch the rest, still a 10/10 review.
I love that introduction
Best box throw ever!
That was at minimum a top 5 box throw if not the best. I almost skipped this video since it wasn't a mic but I'm glad I reconsidered.
0:43 - 0:50 hilarious! don’t get hurt buddy, we need you! BTW, the smart gain feature is incredible, love to have it!

0:46 that caught me off-guard 💀
It caught me off guard too. haha.
Thanks for the review, really cool stuff
What I'd really like, instead of an auto-gain-level-adjuster, is an inbuilt limiter, like on the zoom H5, with quiet pre-amps.
I own an h5 and didn't know it had that, thanks haha
@@barmus it's very useful against clipping! 👍
always used the backup with lower gain function, but def gonna try this
Does a H5 have a inbuilt limiter??? I have owned an h5 for two years and i didnt even know!!
@@kaarestoffer2947 Yup 😊 it's hard to find by accident, though. I only found it my searching specifically for it.

Evo v/s Motu M2 ?
Cuz you said in your review that Motu was the king of budget interfaces !
Does this take the throne away from it now or still the same ?
I think the M2/M4 is better quality for more money, but less versatile than the EVO 8.
Important note
You can see the clipping if there is some on the channel number switches
When clipping occurs, they turn to red
Note it
Not gonna lie, after he threw the box I was hooked!
i will say that box throw is a 10/10
I've been at the batting cages....or the pitching cages or whatever. Thank you!
Never thought in 2020 I would be able to say "Today I saw Podcastage's feet"
😂
but also
😭
Love how yer toes curl when doing the toss! All torque there. Lol. Oh and great review!
Damn, we need noise comparison for these beginner interfaces. Motu m2, Evo 4, ID14 MKII. Light that is the quietest setup. Or sound comparison too.
Omg!!! 😂😅😂😅😂😅
That Box-throw was epic!!! Best so far!! Man... you need a tv show!
Welp, rip. You can't split left and right audio output. That's a big shame for me being that I'm hard of hearing on one side =/

evo 4 because of its great preamps and high dynamic range..
Hi i want to asking when i using headphone then output evo then output L-R evo become muted, why?
fantastic review
Hey! New subscriber and hugely appreciative of your reviews. Any idea how the Evo stacks up to ID line? Considering the Evo 8 plus fethead plus sm7b. It’s be nice to save the extra money from the id14 but not sure what I’m missing out on other than plastic vs metal.
THIS WAS QUITE INFORMATIVE. I BENIFITTED A LOT FROM THIS AND THE OTHERS. I REQUEST YOU TO REVIEW THE SOUNDCRAFT NOTEPAD 12FX AS HOW IT PERFORMS AS AN INTERFACE, ITS PREAMPS, EIN, DYNAMIC RANGE, GAIN AND THE LIKE. THANKS AND REGARDS.
Great Video!!!!! 0:45 Yes!!!!
Did you just plug your Sub Ray 4 directly to the Hi-Z instrument input on this interface? No DI box or anything? No clipping issues with the active pickups of the bass? Does the Smart Gain deal with it too?
love the vids!
So.. Motu M2 or Evo 4??
