ALESIS IO2 Details
Designed as the ideal Audio/MIDI companion to notebook computer-based recording environments, the iO|2 USB has a compact form factor that can easily fit in a laptop case or small backpack. The iO|2 USB features durable aluminum casing, USB power (eliminating cumbersome external power supplies) and is optimized for minimal laptop battery drain.
The iO|2 provides 2-channels of pristine 24-bit/48kHz audio directly to your computer via the integrated USB interface and features 2 channels of switchable mic/line inputs. And with Hardware Direct Monitoring, you never have to worry about dealing with audio latency while recording.
Small enough to fit in a backpack, but powerful enough to get the job done right, the iO|2 is perfect for musicians on the go.
- 24-bit, 48 kHz operation with high-end A/D and D/A conversion through integrated USB audio interface
- 2 XLR mic inputs with 48V phantom power plus 2 1/4" balanced line inputs that can accept guitar level signals
- 1/4" balanced main outputs
- 1/4" TRS inserts on input channels
- 1/4" TRS headphone output
- Dedicated four segment signal/clip LED meter on both channels
- Ultra low-latency ASIO 2.0 drivers (with zero-latency hardware monitoring)
- 24-bit S/PDIF I/O for direct digital recording
- MIDI Input/Output
- USB powered—no external AC power supply necessary
- Low power usage for minimal laptop battery drain
- Bundled with Steinberg Cubase LE software

- GUITAR IN (unbalanced) to INSERT OUT: 99dB A-weighted, input impedance at 1/4" jack = 600 Ohms, Input Gain = minimum
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to SPDIF/USB OUT: 99dB A-weighted, input impedance at MIC or LINE jack = 600 Ohms, Input Gain = minimum
- GUITAR IN (unbalanced) to SPDIF/USB OUT: 94dB A-weighted, input impedance at 1/4" jack = 600 Ohms, Input Gain = minimum
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to MAIN OUT (through ADC/DAC): 97dB A-weighted, input impedance at MIC or LINE jack = 600 Ohms, Input Gain = minimum
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to MAIN OUT (through direct monitor): 95dB A-weighted, input impedance at MIC or LINE jack = 600 Ohms, Input Gain = minimum
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION + NOISE (THD+N):
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to INSERT OUT: <0.001% Input Gain = minimum, 1KHz input signal, INSERT OUT = 5.7dBV
- GUITAR IN (unbalanced) to INSERT OUT: 0.034% Input Gain = minimum, 1KHz input signal, INSERT OUT = 5.3dBV
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to SPDIF/USB OUT: 0.003% Input Gain = minimum, 1KHz input signal, DIGITAL OUT = -0.3dBFS
- GUITAR IN (unbalanced) to SPDIF/USB OUT: 0.034% Input Gain = minimum, 1KHz input signal, DIGITAL OUT = -0.7dBFS
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to MAIN OUT (through ADC/DAC): 0.005% Input Gain = minimum, 1KHz input signal, MAIN OUT = 5.6dBV
- MIC/LINE IN (balanced) to MAIN OUT (through direct monitor): 0.006% Input Gain = minimum, 1KHz input signal, MAIN OUT = 5.6dBV

The drivers can be installed either before or after you attach the i|o2 to your computer for the first time, but we recommend that you install the drivers BEFORE you attach the i|o2.
Note for Mac users: The i|o2 is a class-compliant Mac device, meaning that no drivers are necessary for the Mac. Just plug the i|o2 in to your Mac, and it will install automatically.

- sometimes i connect the IO2 to the computer and it doesn't respond at all. - there is some latency in midi and in real time audio effects. - not stable and not reliable at all with midi . sometimes it plays and holds notes by itself. - somtimes it makes a strange noise when i'm using it with cubase sx3
