On-the-go solo musicians looking for a compact audio interface will appreciate the streamlined and easy-to-use feature set on the Zoom AMS-22, an ultraportable solution for recording and streaming with a TRS/XLR input, two TRS outputs, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C connector.
Plug your guitar or microphone into the TRS/XLR input, and power condenser mics by engaging the 48V phantom power switch. Plug stereo music sources into the 3.5mm input jack and monitor via the 3.5mm headphone jack, or connect monitor speakers to the stereo TRS output. The AMS-22 supports 24-bit resolution recordings at a sampling rate up to 96 kHz. The interface operates on bus power from your computer, but can also be powered by an AC power adapter (available separately) if you're using it with a smartphone or tablet. Direct monitoring and loopback functions make overdubbing and adding music to your streams simple and easy.
Two Inputs and Two Outputs
Perfect for mobile recording or streaming, the AMS-22 includes one XLR/TRS combo input, plus a stereo 3.5mm line in. It also includes one 3.5mm headphone output and two TRS outputs for external monitors.
Use for Recording and Streaming
Use the AMS Series on any device thanks to its support for Mac and PC along with iOS and Android devices, and integrate seamlessly with commonly used software, apps, and platforms. In Streaming mode, connect with your audience by streaming to popular platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, Instagram, and Patreon. In Music mode, record with software like Adobe Audition, Pro Tools, Cubase, and Garage Band.
Quick Control
With onboard hardware switches, the AMS-22 is designed to simplify common streaming challenges without the need for additional software.
Onboard Monitoring
Use the Direct Monitor Switch to directly send the input signal to your headphones while routing the same signal to your DAW or streaming software.
Loopback
The Loopback Switch combines the input audio with playback from your computer and routes it to your streaming software. This is perfect for adding background music to your stream or singing live with an instrumental track.
