Yamaha URX22W Premium Audio Interface White

The Yamaha URX22W is a compact, premium USB Type-C audio interface designed to give vocalists, instrumentalists and content creators studio-level control in a sleek white desktop unit. With Yamaha True Sound mic preamps delivering up to 78 dB of gain, ultra-low distortion and a huge 125 dB dynamic range at the main outputs, it captures everything from delicate vocals to hot guitar signals with clarity and minimal noise. High-resolution 192 kHz / 32-bit conversion, flexible 16-track USB MAIN and 2-track USB SUB connectivity, plus onboard DSP mixing and effects make the URX22W a powerful hub for recording, streaming and monitoring in any modern setup.

Whether you are tracking vocals, plugging in a guitar or running a compact synth and mic rig, the URX22W keeps your workflow fast and intuitive. Two Combo inputs handle microphones, line sources and Hi-Z instruments, while a 3.5 mm stereo AUX input lets you bring in audio from phones, tablets or other devices. Dual headphone outputs with independent control make it easy to run separate cue mixes for you and a collaborator, or to split engineer and performer monitoring in the studio or on stage.

At the heart of the interface is a powerful DSP engine controlled via a bright 4.3-inch touch LCD and Yamaha’s TOUCH AND TURN knob. From low-latency cue mixes and channel strip processing to creative effects and vocal pitch tools, you can shape your sound without loading down your computer. Scene Recall lets you store and instantly switch between complete setups, so you can move from writing to streaming to live performance with confidence in the rock-solid Yamaha and Steinberg ecosystem.

For creators who want pro-grade audio without wrestling with complex routing, Simple Mode offers a guided, streamlined workflow that keeps you focused on performance. When you need deeper control, you can dive into advanced DSP mixing, detailed metering and flexible USB MAIN / SUB routing. The URX22W’s combination of pristine sound quality, comprehensive connectivity and smart control makes it an ideal centrepiece for compact studios, streaming rigs and mobile production setups.

True Sound Preamps and Premium Conversion

The URX22W is built around Yamaha’s True Sound mic preamps, offering up to 78 dB of gain with ultra-low distortion and a 125 dB dynamic range at the main outputs. This gives you clean headroom for dynamic microphones, ribbons and hot instrument signals alike, while the 192 kHz / 32-bit signal path and high-quality AD/DA converters preserve every nuance of your performance. From intimate vocal takes to detailed acoustic recordings, you get a transparent, noise-free capture that stands up in professional mixes.

Flexible I/O for Compact Setups

With two Combo inputs and a 3.5 mm stereo AUX input, the URX22W is ready for a wide range of sources in a small footprint. Plug in microphones, line-level devices or Hi-Z instruments directly, while the AUX input handles external players or mobile devices without extra adapters. USB MAIN supports up to 16-track recording and playback, with USB SUB handling an additional 2-track path, giving you powerful routing options for backing tracks, click, streaming feeds or parallel recording workflows.

Onboard DSP Mixing and Touch Control

The integrated DSP mixer lets you build low-latency monitor mixes and apply processing without taxing your computer. The 4.3-inch touch LCD provides clear visual feedback for levels, routing and effects, while the TOUCH AND TURN knob gives you precise, tactile control. You can set up channel strips with EQ, compression and dynamics, manage cue sends and store complete configurations as Scenes for instant recall. This keeps your sessions consistent and your workflow efficient, whether you are in the studio or working on location.

Creative Effects and Guided Simple Mode

Beyond utility processing, the URX22W includes a comprehensive effects suite tailored for modern creators. Tools like Pitch Fix, Ducker, Multi Band Compressor, Compander, Delay and REV-X Reverb let you refine vocals, control dynamics and add space or character directly on the interface. If you prefer a streamlined experience, Simple Mode guides you through setup and routing, hiding unnecessary complexity while still delivering professional results. When you are ready, you can switch to deeper control, making the URX22W equally suitable for beginners and experienced engineers.
