The ultimate Audient iD interface is finally here
Bigger, better and more powerful than ever, iD48 is the flagship iD interface made
for producers and engineers. Packing in eight Audient Console Mic Preamps,
advanced 32-bit ESS converter technology and the all new Switchable Analogue
Insert technology, iD48 seamlessly combines astonishing audio performance with
ease of use. Add to that professional must have features like ADAT expandability
and customisable monitor control, iD48 is ready to transform your studio.
Real Analogue Mic Preamps
8 x Audient Console Mic Preamps
Level-up your recordings with the Audient Console Mic Preamp. Delivering 68dB
gain, ultra- low noise and low distortion with a touch of classic analogue warmth.
iD48’s eight Audient Console mic preamps make sure you capture a clean,
accurate and true to source translation of your audio.
That’s the same fully analogue and discrete mic preamp circuit design found in
our renowned recording console the ASP8024-HE. No emulations, no copies, just
real analogue console mic preamps on your desktop.
Next-level Audio Performance
Advanced 32-bit Converter Technology
Utilising 32-bit ESS DAC converter technology to minimise quality loss and
maximise performance during conversion, iD48 makes sure your audio sounds
cleaner, clearer and more precise than ever. And with 126.5dB of dynamic range,
you will hear subtle details better and identify problematic issues faster - making
getting release ready results easy.
Expand your Studio
Add more channels with Digital I/O
Make short work of the most demanding sessions and future proof your studio
with iD48’s optical input and output connections. Supporting both ADAT and SPDIF,
iD48 lets you boost your I/O by adding up to 16 channels of external mic preamps
to your setup.
Built for outboard integration
8 x Switchable Analogue Inserts
Utilising Dsub connections, iD48 provides eight fully balanced inserts letting you
integrate your favourite outboard FX prior to conversion - giving you the cleanest
signal path possible. Perfect for stem mixing and print-backs.
And for the first time ever, iD48’s Switchable insert routing enables you to select
which source is feeding the ADC path. Letting you choose whether to send the
Audient Mic Preamp or DAW outputs to your outboard on a per channel basis and
all without having to plug or unplug cables.
● Track with hardware FX
● Mix with hardware FX
Plus, for users wanting to record external analogue mic preamps, iD48’s Returns
let you bypass the Audient Mic Preamp, giving you a super clean and direct
conversion path for recording.

Make monitoring simple
Advanced Monitoring Control
iD48 not only excels as a powerful USB-C audio interface, but also provides
everything you need to get studio-ready monitoring control.
Speaker Outputs
Connect, listen and reference your mixes through Main and Alt speaker outputs.
Alternatively use the extra line outputs to send audio to an external headphone
amp for distribution to your artists.
Headphone Outputs
Confidently mix on headphones with two engineer-grade, fully independent
stereo headphone amps, providing 124dB dynamic range and enough power to
support headphones up to 600Ohms.
User Defined Monitor Control
Configurable function buttons let you assign any of iD48’s powerful monitoring
capabilities, such as Speaker Select, Dim or Mono Sum to the two dedicated
hardware Function Buttons.
Talkback
Take advantage of iD48’s innovative talkback technology, letting you use a USB
microphone or your computer's built-in mic as a dedicated talkback mic - freeing
up valuable mic preamps for recording.
Ultra-low Latency Control Software
iD Software Mixer
Optimised for speed, the iD Mixer is your productivity's best friend. Quickly set up
ultra-low latency direct monitoring, create up to four stereo cue mixes, save
layout presets and quickly setup advanced routing - all from one easy to use app.
Plug and Play
JFET Instrument Inputs
Designed to replicate the input stage of a classic valve amplifier, iD48’s two
harmonically rich JFET Instrument Inputs gives you the perfect sonic foundation
for your guitars or basses before you hit your amp sims.
Looks good, feels good
At just over 44cm wide, an all-metal construction and with detachable rack ears,
iD48 is designed to survive everyday use, whether in the studio or up against the
wear and tear of travel. Stable, reliable and ready to go.

A fanless design means iD48 provides near total silence no matter what you
