Yamaha URX22C — USB-C Audio Interface for Studio and Stream

The Yamaha URX22C is a 2-in/2-out USB-C audio/MIDI interface for home studios, mobile recording, and live streaming. Built around D-PRE preamps and 32-bit/192 kHz conversion, it delivers transparent, dynamic capture in a compact desktop footprint. This model is the right choice for creators who want studio-grade quality with bus-powered USB-C convenience.

What Sets the URX22C Apart

Custom DSP and the dspMixFx app run compression, EQ, and guitar amp simulations inside the interface, with measured direct-monitoring latency around 115 microseconds. Three-channel loopback routing (2 mono + 3 stereo loopback + 1 FX bus) lets streamers mix microphones, system audio, and effects into a single broadcast feed.

Conversion and Preamps — Capture Quality

High-resolution conversion and clean preamps form the foundation of any serious recording chain.

• Sampling rates reach 192 kHz / 24-bit (32-bit integer internal), capturing detail well above human hearing for later pitch and time work.
• Preamps: 2 D-PRE Class-A mic preamps with +48V phantom power — Yamaha's discrete design handles condenser and dynamic microphones
• Dynamic Range: 102 dB (A-weighted) on mic inputs — preserves quiet detail while managing loud sources

Inputs, Outputs, and Routing — Interface Flexibility

Connection flexibility determines how an interface fits into a real-world setup.

• Input Channels: 3 mixing channels (2 mono + 3 stereo loopback + 1 FX) — simultaneous mic, instrument, and system-audio capture
• Combo Inputs: 2 XLR / 6.3 mm jack with Hi-Z on input 2 — record vocals and electric guitar without a separate DI box
• Headphone Output: 1/4" TRS with independent volume control — zero-latency direct monitoring
• Digital I/O: No S/PDIF, ADAT, or AES/EBU — analog-focused design keeps the unit simple

Build, Power, and Software Bundle — Ready to Record

A portable interface needs to survive transport and integrate with modern production environments.

• The dimensions are 159 x 47 x 159 mm, allowing for a compact desktop footprint beside a laptop.
• Weight: 1.0 kg — solid metal housing that stays planted on the desk
• Power: USB 3.0 bus-powered (micro-USB fallback for USB 2.0 hosts) — works with iPhone and iPad via optional supply
• Package Contents: Manual, software suite, USB cable — includes Cubase AI, Cubasis LE, and Steinberg Plus
