Microphone Preamplifiers
& Line Inputs
iD44 features four classic Audient
microphone preamplifiers. These
preamps are based on designs from
Audient’s classic consoles and are the
same that are used across our entire
product range.
The design features discrete Class-A
circuitry providing exceedingly low
distortion and noise performance. From
a sonic point of view, iD44 is fast, open
and detailed.
The four microphone preamplifiers
Instrument Input
iD44 employs 2 discrete Class-A JFET
instrument (D.I) inputs on channels one
and two which are easily accessible on
the front of the unit.
The JFET circuitry adds a tiny bit of colour
and warmth to the signal, making it sound
great on guitars and basses.
Plugging in a TS (tip-sleeve unbalanced)
jack will override the mic signal for that
channel and turn it into a fully fledged,
fantastic sounding instrument input with

Patching Inserts
To incorporate your favourite
processing before conversion,
simply patch the iD44 insert send
into the first piece of gear in your
processing chain. Then take the
output of the last device in the chain
and patch this into the iD44 insert
return.
Direct Access to ADC
The Insert return connection on the iD44
is a electronically balanced input stage
Digital Inputs and Outputs
iD44 features two optical inputs and
two optical outputs. These can be
set to operate using optical stereo S/
PDIF or 8-channel ADAT using the iD
mixer application. All i/o will operate at
up to 96kHz, with ADAT dropping to 4
channels at sample rates of 88.2kHz or
higher.
When using 88.2kHz and 96kHz as a
sample rate, you only have access to 8
channels of digital input and 8 channels
of digital output (due to the ADAT
protocol).
Word Clock Output
The iD44 also includes a BNC Word
Clock output which allows you clock
multiple digital devices to the iD44’s
master clock and keep everything in
sync.
The Word Clock output will send a clock
that directly drives the analog to digital
convertor for that channel.
As such, this is a great place to input
signals directly to the ADC, bypassing
the pre-amplifiers and minimising any
colouration of the signal.
This makes it useful to patch in external
microphone pre-amplifiers without
adding additonal colouration or noise. It
is also handy for using the iD44’s outputs
to drive external eects before returning
them into your DAW using the insert
returns.
Running in S/PDIF mode, the optical i/o
provides the option to integrate
digital outboard
of audio in and out of the iD44 at sample
rates up to 96KHz.
Running in ADAT mode, the optical i/o
provides a great way to expand to 20
inputs for recording via an external mic
preamp such as the Audient

ensure that all devices are syncronised.
Hardware Features Hardware Features
To ensure this, one device in the setup
must be set as the master clock. The
other devices will then use the master
clocks signal to stay in sync. There can
only ever be one master clock present in
a chain.
The master clock signal can be sent
either via an Optical cable embedded
into the digital signal data, or through
a BNC clock line cable. Please bear in
mind that the clock will only travel in one
direction through these conenctions,
from a devices output to a devices input.
iD44 as the Master Clock
With the iD44 set as the Master Clock
the other devices in the chain can be
clocked by either the Optical Port or the
BNC word clock output. When clocking
just one device, clocking via the optical
port would be the simpliest option,
simply connect the TOSlink cable up to
the iD44’s optical output and to the other
digital devices input.
Then set the other device to Slave o the
iD44’s clock.

75 Ohm Terminiated
iD44 with Daisychained BNC connection
Choosing a Master Clock
In a digital setup, there can be a number
of options when determinging which
device should be your master clock.
Quite often the best device to set as the
master is the one that is connected to
the computer (where possible) such
as an audio interface. This way, when
you open a project in a DAW, the audio
interface should change to match the
project sample rate, and therefore
change the sample rate of all the slave
devices. However this depends on the
devices being used.
If you are using multiple devices then it
is reccomended to use the BNC word
clock output and then use T-connectors
to Daisy Chain the Devices together.
It is important to note that the final
device in the chain should have its BNC
connector terminated with 75 Ohms to
stop reflections of the clock signal. This
should be an switchable option on most
devices.

iD44 as the Slave
The iD44 can also act as the slave to
an external master clock via it’s optical
inputs. The BNC connector is an output
only.
In this case, you would simply connect
the optical output of a device to the
iD44’s optical input. Then, in the iD mixer
application, select the optical input you
wish to be used as the clock source.
You would also need to set the inputs to
either ADAT or S/PDIF depending on the
specification of the external device.

Input Channels - Channel Types
Software Features
The iD mixer application features three
types of input channels:
• Mic Inputs
These are the inputs where you will
see the signal from the iD44’s four
analogue inputs
• Digital Inputs
These are the inputs from the iD’s
optical inputs. The number of digital
inputs present on the iD mixer
application depends on the digital
input type (S/PDIF or ADAT) and the
sample rate being used.
Using these three channel types, you
can build up your main monitor mix and
up to four additional cue mixes.
Its important to note that the iD mixer
application only controls the monitoring
of the iD44. Changes made to the iD
mixer application won’t aect the level

Assigning I/O
All of iD44’s input and output channels
will be available to Logic for routing.
There are a total of 20-inputs and
24-outputs reported from the driver.
Operation with Logic Pro
If you are using an external clock source
(ADAT or S/PDIF) to clock iD44, please
ensure that your Logic Pro project is set
to the same sample rate when recording
and playingback in a session, otherwise
things may sound a bit sharp or flat!
File > Project Settings > Audio
Ensure that iD44 is selected as the active
audio device and set the buer size
(to aect system latency). If you are
experiencing issues with playback
stability and CPU loading, try increasing
the buer size. This appears with
“overload” errors and/or pops and clicks
and distortion in the audio.
You can rename input
and output channels
to whatever you wish
using the I/O label
function. This is a
great way to keep
things organised.

Double check that the 12V adaptor is
properly connected and that the regional
adaptor pins of the power supply are
fully pushed into place.
• “I get clicks and pops on DAW
playback”
This is most likely to do with setting the
buer size too low for your computer.
This can be caused by running very large
projects with a lot of plugins and virtual
instruments. Experiment with higher
buer sizes. Typically you want small
buer sizes for tracking or recording

However when mixing it is fine to set a
slightly higher buer size as latency is
not so much of a problem.
• “When I connect to my computer,
I cannot play any audio out from iD44”

Troubleshooting
• “I have clocking issues which include
iD44 not locking to external ADAT
or SPDIF devices or operating at
the incorrect rate compared to my

If there is an issue with syncing of an
external device, the Status LED in the
System Panel will be red or yellow. If
the status light is red then iD44 cannot
detect a clock signal from an external
device, and yellow if it can detect a signal
at the wrong sample rate.
Double check that an appropriate clock
source is selected (Internal for master
operation), ADAT or S/PDIF clock for
external slave operation. Ensure that you
see the correct sample rate displayed in
the Format drop-down menu.
