Good sound and a lot of features for the price - Sadly broke after 3.5 years.
simonlohf 11.05.2020
I've been using the Audient ID22 for 3.5 years, all in my home studio. Sound is good both in and out and I like the interface. The converters are really good for the price. It has a lot of capabilities in form of in and outs, even though I haven't used half of them since I don't have the need.

Sadly the interface broke down 3.5 years into use. A hissing sounds has appeared an after some research this has happened to a lot of users about 4 years into use. The build inside the interface is not great and easily causes capacitators to melt. I wish Audient would've taken more care when building this interface.

The warranty has expired and I was referenced to ship it for repairs on the other side of the country, at my own expense. This would run me the cost of at least a half new ID22, with no guarantee that it will last. The uncertainty and lack of assurance from their support will lead me to look for a new interface. Shame.

Amazing Sound!
AnthonyO 15.02.2017
Spent a few weeks trying to look for a Pro sound card with really good AD/DA converters. And my Good Friend pointed me into the direction of Burr Brown converters. I use a TC finalizer express optical out going into the id22. and my mixes sound much brighter, have more punch, and the sound is crystal clear. Whatever sound goes in (AD) the "exact" sound comes back to you (DA) It really makes a huge difference. Im also going to use this for vinyl that i have restored to 24bit WAV files so I really wanted to find a sound card that can do this for me. And i found it. If you are thinking of getting this do yourself a favor and buy it, its a really great build and the sound and converters for the price are amazing. thanks thomann! and thanks audient!

Have this a few years now but it was doomed from the start!
Insidegary 18.03.2022
Some really cool features but was let down by the build, inputs went after 6 months, constant static noise on the outputs, had so much potential so maybe they improved it on the ID44 but I would advise against purchasing the ID22!.... please read reviews on gearspace before considering!

A
Best interface in the mid-price segment
AdamMicinec 20.11.2020
This is seriously the best audio interface in the mid-price segment. Converters are top noch, mic preamps are great, DI input is great, the monitor controller is super handy and the software very easy to use.

Pros:
- Outstanding converters and preamps
- DI input is great
- Handy monitor controller with pristine sound
- Software driver is easy to use
- Very good price
Cons
- Pretty high crosstalk on the headphone output - maybe thats just my unit
- I wish they put the DI input and Headphone output at the front of the unit
- no on/off button

I own much more expensive Orion Antelope as well and Audient ID22 converters are definitely in the same ligue. I'm seriosly thinking about upgrading to the bigger brother iD44.

The best?
musiccollector 11.11.2018
Apparently this is one of the best interfaces on the market in the mid-price segment. I'm not the one to be able to say that, since I only use it for playing VSTs and listening through monitors and headphones.
I previously had an UR22 mkII. Seeing how other people described the sound quality, I frankly expected to hear something wow. It is an improvement, the sound is more spatial, but it's subtle.
I basically got this interface for better headphone sound quality, instead of buying a headphone amp. It powers the Sennheiser HD58x (similar to HD660s in requirements) without any problems, with power to spare.
The latency is excellent, I can use 32 buffer size without any problems on my weak desktop processor.
All in all, my experience with it is excellent, stable, great sound, very low latency. I would recommend it.

OH MY GOD!
DCR656 03.01.2015
What on earth had I been hearing the past few years... I can tell you for sure that it's not what I'm able to hear now! Clean, sheen and pristine Audio!
Steeping up from a Focusrite Scarlett to this has been one of the best things I've done for myself, my production, my monitors and an extra plus is that the headphone amp on this thing drive my Sennheiser HD600s perfectly, certainly piwerful enough for the job! The Dim and mute buttons are a goodsend... Thank you Audient, Thank you Thomann... Very happy customer indeed
DO NOT WASTE YOU'Re money on sub par interfaces... Buy cheap, buy twice.. So buy this and don't look back

Good piece until it fails
LastMinuteLuca 08.10.2022
It's quite capable as long as it lasts but has a design flaw concerning a cheap capacitor placed at the wrong place. That's the most common and inevitable fail these devices are prone to. Mine had a different failure though.
You can have a good run or end up with a dead box in 1-2 years.

Audition this interface now
Jonnyfmusic 25.03.2022
High quality build and audio and easy to use. The controls feel solid and are easy to change settings. The choice of options is good especially for microphone input vocal usage. The speaker outs sound fantastic too through my Adam A8X monitors as does the headphone output. I have recorded tens of albums using this interface and have had top quality results. Highly recommended.

Great quality interface
ScottM 20.03.2014
Was looking for an audio interface to work with a mac which was not firewire. I choose this USB interface because of what I read about the converters. What I read was true, This has much better converters than my previous interface.

Built in micpres are really good too, as well as the head phone amp! The build is very solid and the software worked right out of the box.

One of the best things about the unit is the support from Audient. My questions were handled personally by someone who really knows the unit.

I am very satisfied with the iD22. My microphones may change but the interface will stay. If you are looking for a great quality interface - I can highly recommend this one!

Best value for money ever
El Fra 14.10.2022
I always suggest the ID22, pre-amp are great as well as the converters. For this money you can’t find better audio interfaces.

The program isn’t always very intuitive but it’s ok. Some audio interfaces are easier to be carried around but it’s just a minor issue.
