General
Audient present the Sono: a hybrid audio interface that's the result of a collaboration with the experts at Two Notes and that's been packed with outstanding modelling possibilities. The Sono is home to a 12AX7 preamp tube which can be found on Input 1 and when called upon, coats your vocals or synth sound with classic warmth. In addition, the Sono naturally makes for an excellent tube guitar preamp that can be used to directly record everything to your DAW in combination with amp modelling, cabinet simulations and power amp modelling. There's a 3-band EQ to polish the tone and, if that's not enough, an ADAT input has been included to raise the number of mic inputs to eight.
Over 20 Years of Console Preamp and Converter Experience
Next to the features outlined above, Audient is known to build premium console quality preamps and you can find both their experience and technology inside the Sono. Even if you only have it set up as an audio interface, your recordings are immaculate thanks to pure conversion and preamps. With a dynamic range of 114 dB, it feels like you're using a vintage console with the natural saturation of the 12AX7 tube. No matter if you're in the studio or on location, this hybrid audio interface has enough flexibility to guide you through any task at hand and records using a super-clean D.I. signal, so it's even possible to re-amp your favourite tube amp at a later time for quick on-the-spot recordings with professional guitar sounds.
