Vibe-rich tube-emulation circuitry, pristine pro-grade conversion, and an impressive bundle of recording hardware and music production software make the Universal Audio Volt 2 Studio Pack a top-notch yet affordable win for quality-conscious collaborators, vocalists, musicians, and even content creators such as podcasters and livestreamers. This Studio Pack features the Volt 2, a bus-powered 2x2 USB Type-C audio/MIDI interface that is equally capable in a computer-based home studio or on the go with your iPad or iPhone, plus a condenser mic, XLR cable, and studio monitor headphones.

Plug mics, guitars, or synths into the Volt 2's two mic preamps, and press the Vintage switches to impart the pleasing character of an emulated UA vintage 610 tube preamp to your voice or instrument. Direct monitoring lets you hear yourself with no distracting latency, and there are separate volume controls for the speaker and headphone outputs. Got a beat machine or keyboard controller? Connect them to the MIDI 5-pin ports on the rear panel to easily integrate them with your setup. Knowing the value of good tools, Universal Audio bundled the Volt 2 with versatile and creativity-inspiring software tailored for music makers. From the popular Ableton Live Lite DAW and UJAM virtual instruments to guitar/bass amp simulations, Melodyne pitch correction, and high-end processors for mixing and mastering, there's a bit of everything to help you transform ideas into polished productions.

Complete Bundle for Pro-Level Home Recording
Volt Studio Packs are the perfect way to jumpstart your home recording studio. Capture your music productions, livestreams, and podcasts with Universal Audio's 2-in / 2-out Volt 2 recording interface, featuring a Vintage Mic Preamp for classic studio sound.

This studio pack includes a large-diaphragm condenser mic with a stand mount and XLR mic cable, closed-back studio monitoring headphones, and a suite of music production software. So you'll be recording like a pro, right out of the box.

Best-In-Class Sound for Collaboration
From the team that brought you the game-changing Apollo interface, Volt 2 delivers superior studio sound quality, with character and tone far beyond its class.
Classic Vocal Tone
Few sounds can compare to a vintage Universal Audio 610 tube preamp, as used to record everyone from Ray Charles to Van Halen. Volt 2 gives you the rich, full sound of this classic UA mic/line/instrument preamp, thanks to its built-in tube emulation circuitry, a UA exclusive.
Inspiring Software
Some audio interfaces give you a smattering of random audio apps. Not Volt. Instead, UA put together a bundle of serious music production tools, virtual instruments, and plug-ins including Ableton, Melodyne, UJAM’s Virtual Drummer, Marshall, Ampeg, and more.

  • Ableton Ableton Live Lite (music production DAW)
  • Softube Marshall Plexi Classic Amp (guitar amp sim)
  • Softube Time & Tone Bundle (mixing effects processors)
  • Celemony Melodyne Essential (pitch correction)
  • Relab LX480 Essentials (classic studio reverb)
  • Plugin Alliance Ampeg SVT-VR Classic (bass amp sim)
  • Brainworx bx_tuner (guitar/bass tuner)

  • Spitfire LABS (virtual instrument)
Access to UAD Spark Plug-Ins on Mac
Also included with the interface is a 30-day trial of UAD Spark, a subscription-based collection of plug-ins and virtual instruments that run natively on your Mac computer's CPU—no UA hardware required. Get exclusive instruments and tools with an ever-expanding library, and give your recordings the analog tones heard on hit albums.
Easy In, Easy Out
Volt 2 gives you simple 2-in / 2-out audio connections. Just plug mics, guitars, or synths into the XLR-1/4" combo jacks on the front panel. Then connect your speakers or headphones via 1/4" sockets to monitor your audio with no latency. With Volt, you'll be creating like a pro, fast.
iPad and iPhone Ready
Traveling light? Plug Volt 2 into your iPad or iPhone, and you can easily create beats and samples, record your band's rehearsals, and edit songs anywhere. An external Volt power supply and an Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter are required (available separately) for iOS mobile devices other than iPad Pros with USB Type-C.
