Behringer 2U2

DICE 2U2 doubles up on the preamp rooted in Midas console engineering — two channels of clean, detailed, low noise recording. Each combo jack switches to high-impedance instrument mode, so you can track a mic and a guitar, two singers, or a stereo source without swapping cables or adding a DI.

A switchable SHINE filter adds a high-shelf lift that opens up the top end on demand — air for a vocal, sparkle on an acoustic — engaged only when the source calls for it, and out of the way when it doesn't. The Mono/Stereo Direct Monitoring switch lets you hear yourself with zero latency while tracking, and the same path lets DICE 2U2 run standalone as a preamp — no computer required.

A high output headphone amp drives demanding headphones with level to spare, and two balanced 1/4" TRS monitor outputs feed your monitors for accurate, critical listening. 24-bit/192 kHz A-D/D-A conversion keeps capture and playback at full resolution from input to DAW and back.

Two virtual loopback inputs route computer audio back in for streaming and multimedia, and two USB-C ports let you run on bus power or add optional external power to preserve your host's battery.
