{"product_id":"esi-amber-i1-408015","title":"Amber i1","description":"\u003ch3\u003eFrom the U22 XT to Amber i1: An Interface Redesigned for Modern Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ESI Amber i1 is the natural successor to the legendary U22 XT, maintaining the same philosophy: delivering serious audio quality, great flexibility, and immediate usability. This new generation goes further with a more modern and elegant design, a more readable LED display panel, and connectivity choices better suited to current home studio workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond aesthetics, improvements are especially noticeable in daily use: separate line inputs, more advanced routing options, and integrated loopback, which has become essential for content creation, streaming, and recording conferences or online classes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho It's For and Intended Uses: Home Studio, Vocals, Guitar, and Content Creation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVersatile, the Amber i1 is aimed at musicians, podcasters, streamers, and producers who want a compact, reliable USB audio interface that's easy to configure. Its combo XLR mic preamp with 48V phantom power supports both dynamic and condenser microphones, while the Hi-Z instrument input is ideal for plugging in a guitar or bass directly without a direct box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to zero-latency monitoring and its input\/output crossfade mixer, it's perfectly suited for vocal and instrument tracking where listening comfort is crucial. In production scenarios, conversion up to 192 kHz and the advertised 114 dB(a) dynamic range on input and output support a clean, precise, and usable sound for both recording and mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features: USB-C, Loopback, and Zero-Latency Monitoring\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eConnectivity and Compatibility: Simple Setup, Clear Cabling\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Amber i1 connects via USB 3.1 through a USB-C port while remaining USB 2.0 compatible, facilitating integration with a wide range of computers. Bus-powered via USB, it avoids the clutter of an external power supply and becomes a practical solution for both desktop and mobile setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eLoopback: Internal Capture for Streaming, Podcasts, and Tutorials\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe loopback function allows direct recording of system or application audio (playback, video calls, browser) alongside your microphone or instrument. This is a major advantage for producing content with a voice laid over an internal source, making audio demonstrations, or managing a streaming feed without complex routing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eZero-Latency Monitoring: Immediate Comfort During Recording\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith zero-latency monitoring and the input\/output crossfade mixer, you adjust the balance between what you play\/sing live and what comes back from the software. The main output volume control completes the setup for quickly managing the level sent to your monitor speakers, while the 1\/4\" TRS headphone output ensures stable and comfortable listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIncluded Software: Production and Editing from the First Session\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo get started immediately, the interface comes with \u003cstrong\u003eBitwig Studio 8-Track DAW\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eSteinberg WaveLab LE\u003c\/strong\u003e, providing everything needed to record, edit, and export your projects efficiently, whether for music, vocals, or video content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:3;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePC, Mac\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMax resolution\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e24-bits\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSampling frequency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e192 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone outputs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:3;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBitwig Studio 8-Track DAW and Steinberg WaveLab LE\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e454g\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e175 mm x 120 mm x 45 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"ESI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361622348051,"sku":"408015","price":115.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/c532084970a325fa09e2c48dbcd85de2c7554feb_ESI_AMBERI1.jpg?v=1792647719","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/esi-amber-i1-408015","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
