Podcastage | Universal Audio VOLT 276 Interface Review / Explained (vs. UA610 Tube Pre) @Podcastage | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the Volt 276 and discuss when you might want the Volt 2 over the Volt 276. I also compare vintage mode to the LA610 tube preamp and compare it to the Audient ID14 and SSL2+. This thing offers a 55dB gain range, an EIN of -127dBa, sufficiently powered headphone amp, direct monitoring, midi I/O, and that vintage mode & 76 style compressor
