How to set up an Audient iD14 MkII Audio Interface

Is it pssible to connect a shure sm58 mic to the front input (for instrument) ?

is not working to get the download to work... it says failed each time I try....
Also, there is no choice of Audient in the sound settings of my macbook pro M1 Sonoma at all!

How to get in touch with a tech service person at Audient?
I have mailed you guys... but I need help or I bought a device that cannot be used...

can i use the interface without connecting to a DAW ? if i want to connect a line-in through the optical AND connect some analog inputs via XLR, can i hear everything mixed together through the headphone jacks or even through the analog outputs all at the same time ?

Which is better Audient id 14 mk2 or rme babyface blue?

What's impedance of DI/Instrument input?

Can I use ASIO Link Pro with this interface?

Is it possible to connect a synth (having 3.5mm output) to this interface? When I connect as following: (synth 3.5 output) -> 3.5 to 3.5 cable -> 3.5 to 6.3 adapter -> mic/line 1 there is no sound. Should it work that way?

Hi i did all that was mentioned step by step on MAC OS and i still cant get an outout from the device (m1 MAC book air) Any help ?

Can you use the optical port as input for a master cinch pair from a controller?

@audientworld I’m planning to upgrade to id14 mkii but i have a question, does the level of monitor and headphones stays at the level we have set them on or not after restarting this audio interface?

Also, can i get output from monitors and headphones simultaneously or it stops output from monitors if we connect headphones ( as evo 4 )?

How can I change the factory settings? Without the driver is almost useless, I've been in situations where I didn't have my personal computer and I needed 3/4 outs in the vanues and just didnt worked :/

I just bought the id14 MkII, I'm having a issue with the headphones, In the mixer I have to pan both stereo channel knobs either all the way left or right to get a clear sound in the headphones, If I balance the knobs to center I get a really low quality muted sound? If I record with the knobs all the way left or right I just get one channel of sound, but if I center the knobs I just record the bad low quality sound.

Just wondering if the interface is class compliant why would I need the drivers?

Can you set a surround set-up with the two sets of line outs? I.e one set of line out for fron left-right and the other one for the rear left-right

Hi, I bought the ID14 II to replace a Focusrite, but I really need assistance setting it up through Reaper. Is anyone aware of an absolute beginners video or guide out there? The Focusrite had 4.5ms/4.5ms input/output, whereas I am getting 6.7ms/17ms with the ID14. I could really do with a little help if possible.

Hey i wanted to ask is ut safe to switch off(pull the plug) on the interface while your mic is conected to the interface?

I cant adjust the volumn of my Macbook using audient id14 mkii. The master volumns are just greyed out. Is there any way I can adjust the volumn without touching the knob ?

I want to connect two volcas and both mic/line at the back of the interface sound very low in comparison with the instrument input in front. What am I doing wrong?

I can't install iD14 MkII software on my M1 Mac. After downloading the driver in the top right corner ID sign appears BUT it has only

I own id14 few years and it's really cool interface!
but I found one job for it and don't know how to be..
it has optical input. if I connect my TV via optical cable can I get somehow sound on monitors without laptop or PC? just like amplifier.

Hello! I recently purchased an id14 mkII. I wanted to check if it works smoothly on USB C Thunderbolt 3 ports. I am having problems on my Hackintosh computer, since my USB C is Thunderbolt 3, the audio lasts for a few seconds and cuts out. The interface is only working well over USB A 3.0 in my case. I await your response, thank you very much!

Hey! I have recently bought the iD14 MkII. Very nice audio interface, excellent build quality!

However, ii am having a small issue and haven't found a solution so far. I am using OBS to stream and I set within OBS the input device for my mic to be "Analogue 1/2 (2-Audient iD14)". This is the exact description in OBS. I am getting signal, the sound is good, but something limits the volume coming into OBS at max -6dB . I can't get beyond that. I've looked into the filters of the Mic in OBS and there is nothing there, no limiter. I've tried a usb mic to see if the issue is OBS or my audio interface, and with the USB I can get it clipped., but not with the signal coming from iD14.

On the iD14 , I have connected my mic via XLR on input Mic/Line 1. No matter if I have the volume knob turned at 75% or 100% on the iD14, it will still limit the output going into OBS.


Does anyone know what's causing the issue? I can't get passed -6dB and I would like to get closer to -2dB or -3dB.

Thank you.

Watching this has wiped the vacant expression from my face. 😶

Hi, i have a problem...I can see the audio track on mixer, but there's no sound from speakers neither from earphones...it's like the outputs don't work...have you a suggest? Thanks

Hi i have id14 mkii, so If connected with usb A on my PC, i think it's giving less output sound than my previous scarlett solo..is it because of the usb type? (USB 2.0)

Need help with below

What is the ideal position of Gain Knob for a condenser mic. At 50% it feels as low volume but at 70 or above it causes distortion.

Also the interface sometimes goes silent and only gets detected when we unplug and connect again. Is it normal or any solution for this?

Hello. I own a ID14 Audient model. I just got myself a MacBook Pro 16'' 2021. I got my software on board, and when I connect it and start Logic Pro, it's saying "The last selected audio interface is not available". I press "OK", then it works for like 10 seconds and the same story happens. What should I do?

Add the option to set mono microphone natively in Windows like Focusrite does.
Applications without default downmixing to mono etc. Windows Recorder only play/record audio on the left channel otherwise.
It is annoying.

Hi i'm new Audient customer, i got on christmas audient id14 mkii and i'm having issues with setting higher sample rate on the firmware of audient. I want to find a solution for this because i'm beginning my music career as a singer or a rapper and that delay what it has when i'm recording vocals is so annoying and bad. My daw which i use is Fl Studio 20 in a audio settings i have set Fl studio ASIO and i know i know i should use my audio interface instead of fl studio ASIO. But the problem is that i don't have Studio Headphones yet. So just for now untill i'll have my new headphones is there some fix for setting higher sample rate so it will save also in fl and my ms will be lowest possible with minimal CPU usage? Btw i'm sorry for my english still learning it. Greetings from Czech republic 👋

How do I connect this to a topping a30 pro?

Hello, I just bought my iD14 MKII and I have a question about the heat emitted by the interface. To judge by touch I would say that the interface is at 30-40 degrees Celsius constant. Is this the normal temperature of the interface??

Can i run trs to xlr to my speakers on output 1 and trs to rca to my subwoofer on output 2? Does sound play from both outputs simultaneously? I know its not ideal but subwoofer only has rca in.

Hi, Just to confirm I cannot use instrument input and mic 1 input at the same time?

I'm having a hard time with my iD14 MkII. I use this device to listen to music and stream games via OBS. However I have come upon a slight problem, whenever I use the 2nd microphone input none of my games will pick up any signal at all when trying to use ingame voice. It only works with the first port. How come and how to fix it? I occasionally use the first port for an instrument, hence why I'd like to keep it clear of my microphone. Also the 2nd port works flawlessly in OBS and discord for example. (Windows 10)

I have a problem with my microphone on windows 10. Everything is plugged in correctly. In the system options of windows i chosen "input 1/2". What should i do? It seems to be something with the settings on the iD interface. Thanks.

Hi, I have a question,

Hi, can I with the Audient ID14 MKII control the volume of the monitors and headphones, each one separately? I mean, do the monitors have their own independent volume signal and the headphones have their own independent volume signal? If yes, can the ID4 MKII do this as well? Thank you very much.

Can't seem to find th download for the Mac :(

Can I use the optical to connect the id14 to a speaker? I have the optical connected from the speaker to the id14, but it doesn't seem to work for me.
