There are many USB audio interfaces on the market but few of them are designed with both the sound quality and the specific use case in mind.
 
The Grimm Audio UC1 is a mid price USB interface and monitor controller that has a different approach. It is an ideal match with the Grimm Audio LS1 or PMC monitoring systems, and works great with other active loudspeakers too.
 
Present day use cases have been the premier focus from the first UC1 sketches onwards. This led to an unusual design with remarkable flexibility.
 
When mixing and mastering, not all inputs and outputs are equal. The UC1 offers 18 channels of USB I/O of which some are dedicated to monitoring and others to re-recording. With the second USB ‘i-put’ on the front there is no sample rate and word length restriction when using your iPad or iPhone. The i-put also serves as a convenient stereo USB input for laptops.
