Universal Audio Volt 476 USB-C Audio Interface – 4-In/4-Out Desktop Studio Interface with Vintage Mic Preamp Mode & Built-in 76 FET Compressor

The Universal Audio Volt 476 is a desktop 4-in/4-out USB-C audio interface designed for producers, band collaborators, electronic musicians, and content creators who require expanded I/O alongside authentic analog studio processing. Built by the team behind UA’s flagship Apollo interfaces, the Volt 476 combines 24-bit/192 kHz AD/DA audio conversion with dual Vintage Mic Preamp emulation circuits and an analog 76 FET Compressor directly on the input channels. Housed in a heavy-duty metal chassis with retro wood side panels, it provides a timeless aesthetic and album-ready sound for home studios and mobile setups.

Analog Vintage Preamp Mode and Built-in 76 Compressor

The Volt 476 features tube-emulation circuitry on its two front preamp channels that recreates the harmonic richness and dynamic warmth of Universal Audio’s historic 610 tube console. Alongside the Vintage Preamp Mode, the interface includes an onboard analog 76 Compressor inspired by UA’s iconic 1176 Limiting Amplifier. Featuring three push-button application presets—Vocal, Guitar, and Fast (Drums/Synths)—this hardware circuit tames dynamic volume peaks and injects punch into recordings at the tracking stage without adding CPU latency.

Expanded 4-In / 4-Out I/O & Visual LED Metering

Engineered for multi-source recording, the Volt 476 includes two front-panel XLR-1/4″ combo inputs for microphones and high-impedance (Hi-Z) instruments, supplemented by two rear-panel 1/4″ TRS line-level inputs for keyboards, drum machines, or external channel strips. For monitoring and signal distribution, it features two dedicated 1/4″ TRS main monitor outputs plus four additional 1/4″ TRS line outputs, enabling flexible multi-speaker configurations or external hardware routing. Front-panel LED ladder meters provide visual monitoring of input and output signal levels.

Cross-Platform Compatibility and Solid Connectivity

Operating via USB-C bus power or the included 5V DC power supply, the Volt 476 seamlessly connects with macOS, Windows PCs, and iOS devices (iPad/iPhone). Standard 5-pin DIN MIDI I/O ports facilitate integration with hardware synthesizers, MIDI controllers, and drum machines. A hardware Direct Monitoring switch supplies zero-latency tracking for seamless studio performance.
