***Timestamps in the description***
What’s up YouTube today, I’m gonna talk about this interface
Behringer UMC204HD
and you’re probably wondering why I also mentioned 202HD on this video because
These two are pretty similar in terms of sound quality and build quality
I will discuss later on this video
What is different between these two?
So let’s not waste any time. Let’s get into the detail
First of all, we talk about the build quality
It has metal construct and it feels strong overall
The body of this interface is solid
and have weight into it
Now let’s talk about what we got on this interface
There is two combo jack input on the front of the interface
and

under the input. There are a little text say
Midas preamp we will talk about that later in this video and next to it
There is 2 gain knob to control volume each of these inputs and they also have
line/instruments switch for switching between line level and
Instrument level and there is a pad switch for you.
If you are going to record something with high attack
they also have signal indicator to see if interface receive any signal coming from
Inputs and clip indicator to see if what you’re recording is clipping
There is a stereo and mono switch for direct monitoring
So you can choose to hear what you record in stereo or mono
They also have MIDI In and out indicator to see if MIDI signal is sent and received
correctly
Next to it is monitor mix knob which is really essential right now in audio interface these days
This knob will let you blend between the sound that comes from your computer playback
or a signal that comes from your input
Which is useful if you are tracking vocals
Under of it, there is a main output knob to control volume of your studio monitor
There is a monitor a/b button that let you switch between output a and output B
on the back of the interface
There is a power indicator to see if interface is connect to a computer
There is a 48v indicator to see if phantom power is turned on or off
Next to it is headphone volume knob to control volume of your headphone
Lastly on the front is 6.3 millimeter headphone output for connecting your headphone
Move on to the back of the interface. You can clearly see USB port for connecting to your computer
Next to it is a MIDI I/O port for connecting external midi device
Next there is a 48 volt phantom power switch
above that there is a Kensington lock if you’re going to use it in a public place for
educational or whatever
Next there is a pair of RCA outputs this can use to connect with any DJ mixer
Next there is a quarter inch jack output for connecting your studio monitor
And lastly is the good things of this interface a pair of insert
which is allowed you to insert any external effect device like
Compressor delay reverb or EQ you can even use it to connect to external preamp
Because this insert is already bypassed the preamp on this interface, which is great
Now let’s talk about tech and specs.
This interface have 51 DB of gain range
it has bit depth of 24 bit
and 192 kilohertz of sampling rate
it have 110dB of dynamic range
and remember what I say about midas preamp
the noise on this preamp is so low
Equivalent input noise on this interface is
-129 DB which is really great compared to other interface
in this price range and this information is
Reference from one of the YouTube channel
Julian Krause he is great. You can go check him out if you haven’t
Now I’m going to talk about difference between 204 and 202 HD
In 204 HD you have a lot more option and expandability
it’s feel a lot more flexible because 202 HD is lack of
Monitor mix knob this is really important features nowadays
It don’t have RCA output
So you can’t use any DJ mixer with it if you want to
it also lack of midi i/o all who want to use
External MIDI gear and lastly it can insert any effect
So it’s your choice to choose what you really need?
Because these two are sounds great and build like a tank
now, let’s hear how it sounds singing
