The Behringer ULTRAVOICE UV1 is an all-in-one professional channel strip and USB audio interface designed to deliver polished, studio-quality vocal recordings with minimal setup. Featuring an award-winning Midas microphone preamp, the UV1 combines premium analog signal processing with a high-resolution 24-bit/192kHz USB audio interface, making it ideal for podcasters, streamers, vocalists, musicians, broadcasters, churches, content creators, and home recording studios.
Unlike a standard audio interface, the ULTRAVOICE UV1 includes a complete vocal processing chain—including a compressor, de-esser, enhancer, expander/gate, and 80Hz high-pass filter—allowing you to achieve broadcast-ready sound before the signal even reaches your computer.
Whether you're recording vocals, producing music, hosting a podcast, streaming live, or speaking at conferences, the UV1 provides professional sound quality in a compact 1U rackmount design.
Capture every performance with confidence using the Behringer ULTRAVOICE UV1 Professional Channel Strip. Powered by the renowned Midas microphone preamp, the UV1 delivers exceptional clarity, ultra-low noise, and rich vocal detail suitable for professional recording environments.
The built-in analog processing chain gives you complete control over your voice. Smooth out volume inconsistencies with the compressor, eliminate harsh "S" sounds using the de-esser, add warmth and presence with the enhancer, and remove unwanted background noise with the expander/gate. An integrated 80Hz high-pass filter further improves vocal clarity by reducing unwanted low-frequency rumble.
For recording convenience, the UV1 includes a 24-bit/192kHz USB audio interface, allowing direct connection to Windows or Mac computers without requiring an additional interface. Zero-latency headphone monitoring with Mix control lets you balance live input and computer playback for comfortable recording sessions.
The rear-panel Send/Return insert loop also enables integration of external processors such as EQs, effects units, or additional compressors, making the UV1 equally suitable for studio recording and professional live sound applications.
Whether used as the front-end for an existing audio interface or as a standalone USB recording solution, the ULTRAVOICE UV1 delivers professional audio quality for virtually any vocal application.

Many audio interfaces simply amplify your microphone signal. The Behringer ULTRAVOICE UV1 goes much further by combining a premium Midas preamp with a full suite of professional analog vocal processors, allowing you to create polished, broadcast-quality sound before recording.
With integrated compression, de-essing, enhancement, noise reduction, and a high-resolution USB interface, the UV1 reduces the need for extensive software plugins while delivering cleaner, more natural vocals in real time.
Its versatile connectivity also allows it to function as both a standalone USB recording interface and a high-end front-end processor for existing studio equipment.
