Legendary Analog Sound for the Whole Band

Built by the same team behind the legendary Apollo, Volt 876 USB Recording Studio gives serious music producers a next-generation 32-bit / 192 kHz audio interface with eight onboard Vintage preamps and classic 1176-style compressors right on its front panel, providing big analog studio sound to every mic and instrument you connect.

Volt 876's integrated recording experience includes full recall of interface settings, mobile iPhone or iPad recording, iconic UAD plug-ins and instruments, and LUNA Digital Audio Workstation with smart AI-powered recording tools.

A Letter from Bill Putnam, Jr.

Thank you for choosing Volt 876 as part of your music making experience. We know that any new piece of gear requires an investment of time and money — and our goal is to make your investment pay off. Universal Audio’s family of audio interfaces represent the best examples of what UA has stood for over its long history; from its original founding in the 1950s by my father, to our current vision of delivering the best of both analog and digital audio technologies.

Volt 876 continues this tradition with legendary sound and flexibility for modern creators. With eight Vintage mic preamps, analog 76 compression, and professional 32-bit conversion, Volt 876 is built to handle everything from full bands to large productions — all with inspiring tone and craftsmanship.

You can also take advantage of powerful creative tools including session recall, cue mixes with talkback, and a full suite of award-winning UAD plug-ins and instruments. And when used with our LUNA recording software, Volt 876 lets you stay focused on making music with features like Auto-Gain, Voice Control, and unlimited tracks.

At UA, we’re dedicated to the idea that technology should serve the creative process — not be a barrier. These are the very ideals my father embodied as he invented audio equipment. We believe Volt 876 will earn its way into your creative workflow by providing stunning fidelity and rock-solid reliability for years to come.

Please feel free to reach out to us via our website www.uaudio.com, and via our social media channels.

We look forward to hearing from you, and thank you once again for choosing Universal Audio.
