The Audient iD4 is a 2-in/2-out USB audio interface that puts a genuine Audient console microphone preamp on your desk — the same discrete Class-A design heritage as the company's professional consoles, at a personal-studio price.
The Audient console mic pre with 48V phantom delivers clean, musical gain for vocals and instruments, joined by a JFET instrument input that behaves like plugging into a valve amp for guitars and basses. Class-leading converters capture and play back with clarity, while the oversized monitor knob doubles as ScrollControl for hands-on DAW parameter rides, with main speaker and dual headphone outputs and monitor mix for zero-latency tracking. USB-C bus power keeps it truly portable.
It is the small interface serious engineers recommend first. DjLab supplies genuine Audient in Lebanon with USD pricing, warranty handled locally, and fast delivery.

“Audient’s budget‑friendly interfaces get a welcome update and a new look. The iD4 and iD14 were Audient’s entry into the crowded budget end of audio interfaces. The iD4 offers two‑in and two‑out, whereas the iD14 makes up the numbers with two inputs, four outputs and an optical port for potentially another eight inputs.”Read full review →
