[Qu3ridity]

How does this compare to the POD Studio by Line 6? Anyone has some experience with both of them?

[wellurs]

How much of an improvement is teh UA-25EX over the UA-25?

[JohnTeoCH]

[malagatak]

Hello all

i have some questions

this audio interface can records easly a live on the program of production with the roland Mc 808?

(Mc 808 is a groovebox working with midi)

I m working with Vista too, and i m not sure if it s compatible....?

if it s i go to buy it Right Now! i really need Record Sounds and Fast !

Thanks for answer !

and sorry for my poor english !

Buyers beware. This is in reality a 16 bit/44.1khz device. It will record and playback in 24bit/96khz, but not simultaneously. Therefore if you have just recorded a track in 24/96 and you want to play it back....you must first close your DAW software, unplug the USB from the Ua-25ex, switch the sample rate, then replug the usb, and re-open your DAW program. This also means you cannot record as you listen to your previously recorded tracks...........huh, no overdubs???

[musicsnowandrazzles]

@Fatonzzz really? how did you find that out? does it stand somewhere in the description of the interface? cause at the moment I'm looking for an audio interface and the more reviews I read, the less they manage to convince me. So finally I thought that the cakewalk has everything I need.....or maybe not? ....:/ so what if I record in 16bit/44 khz (is it possible to change the rate??), is it then possible to listen to the other tracks at the same time? How would that influence the audio quality?

[Fatonzzz]

@musicsnowandrazzles I am sorry for the super delayed reply, but I literally just noticed your message. I found this out because I bought the unit, thinking I had finally found the perfect solution. Yes, you can record in 16bit and then convert. However there are other advantages to recording in 24 bit...most notably the increased headroom.

No, you cannot record as you listen to your recorded tracks in 24bit mode. I went out and bought the M-audio Fast Track Ultra. Problem solved...

[thebenoconnor]

@Fatonzzz Does that mean you can record it in 24 bit and listen to it simultaneously in 16 bit?? So I could jus monitor in 16 bit until ive mastered the final mix, close it all down then reopen my DAW an listen in 24 bit?

[Fatonzzz]

@thebenoconnor Been a long time since I returned this unit, but I'm pretty sure there is a switch on the back of the interface that lets you operate in either one mode or the other, not a combination of both.  If you are in 24 bit mode you cannot monitor and record simultaneously...

Have you visited Cakewalk's Support pages? There are a few tutorials that show you how to properly install and setup your Audio/MIDI interface inside the software

If you are having trouble connecting your interface to your computer and recording your instrument, please contact Cakewalk's technical support through our website - via email or phone service.

[tylerevertz]

it would be nice if cakewalk could help figure the fuckin thing out...they suck...i've been trying to get it working with sonar for days

[Javier970963]

idk if i should get this or the ua-101? anyone please help me?!

[voiceofexpression]

if have money, then go for the UA-101. the Cakewalk UA-25EX USB Audio Interface is a good one too.

[monlegaspi]

what's the difference with brandnames?

[maelz]

Hrmm, i have the edirol ua-25, looks the exact same except its branded cakewalk now?

[HELLSPAWN1973]

No, there are a lot of difference in the EX-Version. Read some Reviews - its much better and with USB2.0

[punkysexer]
