Introduction & Overview
A Letter from Bill Putnam, Jr.
Thank you for choosing Volt as part of your music making experience. We know that any new piece of gear
requires an investment of time and money — and our goal is to make your investment pay off.
Universal Audio’s family of audio interfaces represent the best examples of what UA has stood for over its long
history; from its original founding in the 1950s by my father, to our current vision of delivering the best of both
analog and digital audio technologies.
Volt’s best-in-class audio quality serves as its foundation, but this is just the beginning. Volt is also the perfect
"on-the-go" audio interface and features an exclusive analog Vintage Mic Preamp circuit, inspired by our
legendary UA 610 mic preamp. Plus, some Volt models feature the analog 76 Compressor inspired by our iconic
1176 limiter heard on thousands of classic records. Volt also includes MIDI for connection to a wide range of
devices, and direct monitoring capability for latency-free recording.
At UA, we're dedicated to the idea that technology should serve the creative process — not be a barrier. These
are the very ideals my father embodied as he invented audio equipment. We believe Volt will earn its way into
your creative workflow by providing stunning fidelity and rock-solid reliability for years to come.
Please feel free to reach out to us via our website www.uaudio.com, and via our social media channels. We look
forward to hearing from you, and thank you once again for choosing Universal Audio.
