Featuring switchable Rupert Neve Designs transformers on the front inputs for rich harmonics and enhanced musical sound, the premium UR-RT2 offers a studio-quality mobile production platform.

Onboard dspMixFxalso provides DSP-powered, latency-free monitoring. For composers and musicians who want the most expressive sound, the UR-RT2 is the ideal portable production interface for your PC, Mac or iOS devices.

The Rupert Neve Designs transformer

Mr. Rupert Neve is undoubtedly a legend in the professional audio field. The transformer circuitry is one of the key factors in his numerous vintage designs and also in the latest devices from Rupert Neve Designs, which gives a very appealing touch of natural compression and saturation to the sound.

Input channels 1-4 on the Steinberg UR-RT4 each feature a transformer that Rupert Neve Designs has specifically developed for audio interfaces. With this transformer, a natural distortion can be added to the signal to realize a sound with more depth and perspective, while maintaining the natural sound of the DPRE itself when the transformer is disabled.

The D-PRE: Beyond precision

The virtues of the Yamaha-designed D-PRE have been sung by industry veterans and trade press alike since the introduction of this class-leading preamp. A sumptuously detailed high-end, immaculate dynamic response and a rich, rounded low-end sound are the hallmarks of this very special preamp. The UR-RT2 and UR-RT4 feature two D-PRE preamps, each offering stellar recording quality unmatched in this price class. And to faithfully capture and replay the warm, transparent sound of the D-PRE, the UR-RTs feature AD and DA conversion stages with up to 24-bit, 192 kHz resolution.

  • 24-bit/192 kHz USB 2.0 audio interface

The sound card is exceptional for the price. I recorded my guitar (baja telecaster) through the direct input with the Rupert neves activated and it sounds superb. Lovely colour and warm to the guitar sound. I also produced EDM and its great for that too.
