Yamaha URX22B Audio Interface Black

The Yamaha URX22B is a compact, USB Type-C audio interface designed to give vocalists, instrumentalists and content creators professional control in a streamlined desktop unit. With Yamaha True Sound mic preamps, 192 kHz / 32-bit audio and powerful onboard DSP, it delivers studio-grade recording quality and flexible monitoring in a footprint that fits any home studio, rehearsal space or live rig.

Offering up to 16-track recording and playback via USB MAIN and an additional 2-track path via USB SUB, the URX22B slots neatly into modern hybrid workflows. Combo inputs handle microphones, line sources and Hi-Z instruments, while a dedicated AUX input and dual headphone outputs make collaboration and reference listening simple. The 4.3-inch touch LCD and TOUCH AND TURN knob put deep DSP mixing, effects and routing at your fingertips, with Scene Recall letting you switch instantly between setups for streaming, tracking or live performance.

True Sound for Vocals and Instruments

At the heart of the URX22B are Yamaha’s True Sound mic preamps, delivering up to 78 dB of gain with ultra-low distortion and a 125 dB dynamic range at the main output. This means you can capture delicate vocals, dynamic speech and low-output instruments with clarity and minimal noise, even when pushing gain for quieter sources. Paired with 192 kHz / 32-bit converters, the interface preserves the nuance, depth and transient detail of your performance, making it suitable for serious studio work as well as high-quality streaming and content creation.

Flexible I/O for Compact Setups

The URX22B is built to handle a wide range of small studio and mobile recording scenarios. Two Combo inputs accept microphones, line-level gear or Hi-Z instruments, so you can plug in anything from a condenser mic to an electric guitar without extra boxes. A 3.5 mm stereo AUX input lets you feed in audio from a phone, tablet or external player, ideal for backing tracks, reference mixes or streaming audio. With 16-track recording and playback via USB MAIN plus 2-track via USB SUB, you can integrate the URX22B into DAW sessions, live playback rigs or streaming setups with ease.

Onboard DSP with Touch Control

The integrated DSP mixer and effects engine give you powerful, low-latency control directly from the URX22B. The 4.3-inch touch LCD and Yamaha TOUCH AND TURN knob make it easy to adjust levels, shape tone and manage cue mixes without diving into software menus. Whether you are setting up a vocal chain with compression and reverb, building a latency-free monitor mix, or balancing multiple inputs for a live stream, the interface keeps everything accessible and visual. Scene Recall lets you store and instantly recall complete configurations, so you can jump between recording, rehearsal and performance setups without re-patching or reprogramming.

Creative Tools and Guided Workflow

Beyond basic mixing, the URX22B includes a comprehensive suite of DSP effects such as Gate, Compressor, EQ, channel strips, Pitch Fix, Ducker, Multi Band Compressor, Compander, Delay and REV-X Reverb. These tools allow you to polish vocals, control dynamics and craft a signature sound directly on the interface, freeing up computer resources and simplifying live or streaming rigs. Simple Mode provides a guided workflow that helps less experienced users get up and running quickly, while still allowing more advanced routing and processing when needed. This balance of assistive features and professional flexibility makes the URX22B a strong choice for creators who want to focus on performance and production rather than technical setup.
