Yamaha USB Audio Interface

YAMAHA UW10 Details

Yamaha continues to provide music production tools for a growing home/computer recording market with the introduction of the UW10 at Summer NAMM 2003. This highly compact USB audio interface is the perfect accessory for entry-level home and mobile computer recording applications, and is compatible with Windows 98, ME and XP formats.

Features include stereo S/PDIF optical I/O, two RCA analog inputs and outputs, and a headphone jack for quick and mobile monitoring. One of the strong points of the UW10 is the unique Trackdown feature. Virtual instruments--tracks generated by software--can be automatically mixed with audio tracks on the UW10 and sent directly to the computer to be saved as a single audio file, where they may then be used to create MP3 files or to burn CDs.

The UW10 is a high quality, compact USB audio interface featuring stereo S/PDIF optical I/O, two RCA analog inputs and outputs and a headphone jack. The UW10 is Windows 98, ME, XP compatible and uses ASIO drivers making it perfect for home and mobile recording applications.

The incorporated headphone amplifier provides quick and mobile monitoring. Includes Yamaha’s unique trackdown mode and the TWEplus wave editor for audio editing and MP3 conversion.
