AXE I/O Solo Audio Interface from IK Multimedia

Best-in-class guitar recording starts hereThe AXE I/O Solo is an award-winning audio interface from IK Multimedia which brings the same great tone shaping, convenient features and premium sound to everyone, everywhere, in a compact and affordable 2-in / 3-out format.
Keep Your Sound Completely Pure and Transparent

Comprehensive connections The AXE I/O SOLO offers separate master & headphone volume and a Monitor knob to blend direct signals and the audio from your computer for zero latency monitoring. 24-bit, 192 kHz conversion and an ultra-stable, low jitter internal clock ensures the highest fidelity, delivering truly professional-grade recordings for everyone.
Your Guitar’s Golden Channel

Pick your pickup:PASSIVE: Designed to accommodate everything from low-output vintage pickups to hotter modern humbuckers with ultra-low noise and extended frequency response.
ACTIVE: Bypasses unnecessary gain stages when using active pick-ups, to keep your signal path as direct and clean as possible.
Giving Yourself the Best Choice

Choose your channel:PURE: A completely transparent and ultra-accurate preamp circuit that won’t color your sound in any way.
JFET: A Class A JFET input buffer for subtle harmonic
enhancement, midrange focus and warmth.
Give Your Guitars even more Sonic Character

Z-TONE Circuits AXE I/O SOLO also offers IK’s patent pending Z-TONE™ circuit, letting you dial in impedance from 1 MOhm (“sharp”) down to 2.2 kOhms (“bold”) that interacts with your pick-ups. At the maximum impedance, you’ll find your sound tighter, sharper and more precise. Increase the load and the sound becomes thicker and bolder. You’ll quickly find yourself using these controls to give your guitars even more sonic character – with just a few minutes’ experimentation you can dial in a sound that fits the mix beautifully.
