Xvive’s Innovative, Expandable Interface
As the means and tools of writing, creating, and performing music continue to grow, shouldn’t our recording and support tools be just as accessible? With the More You Hub, Xvive has provided just that — a modular, expandable ecosystem of dual-purpose monitoring and recording with a USB audio interface that’s rife with diverse recording, connectivity, dynamics, and sound-shaping capabilities. A versatile I/O suite accommodates XLR, 1/4-inch audio, 3.5-millimeter TRS, and USB-C data connections, with an ADAT input to support up to eight channels, resulting in a staggering total of 24 inputs! This pint-sized powerhouse's versatility has enamored Sweetwater’s studio scholars. And that sentiment extends beyond its connections: the More You Hub hosts a slew of onboard talkback, recall, auto-gain, and variable-power options, guaranteeing you always have what you need to sound your best.
Note: The Xvive More You ecosystem is exclusively compatible with More You expansion units. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer with any questions or concerns regarding compatibility or integration with your setup.

Multimode signal processing
Whether you’re ideating, laying down demos, recording your next major track, or need a robust monitoring system in your rehearsals, the Xvive More You Hub has you covered. Dual combo jacks support 3-pin XLR and 1/4-inch connections for mics and instruments of your choice, with Direct and Instrument modes selectable from the interface’s dedicated buttons. Onboard 48V phantom power is supplemented by a whopping 60dB of gain, adjustable in 1dB steps that ensure exacting precision that can be instantly recalled, even after powering down your Hub, and applied to individual channels or global output. Plus, the ultra-vivid LCD displays real-time feedback and information for any parameter and setting you’re adjusting — an easy process made easier by the hefty yet detailed encoders (satisfying tactility, included).
MIDI, FX, and beyond
At the rear of the Xvive More You Hub, you’ll find two USB Type-C ports: one handles power, while the other is a dedicated data port. With the latter, you can seamlessly integrate your DAW into your More You Hub monitoring or recording environment, letting you incorporate your full suite of virtual processing tools, plug-ins, and DAW tools. If you’d prefer to ditch the DAW or want additional options for sound management, then the More You Hub’s array of built-in sonic contouring tools will become one of your best friends. With a single button push, highpass filtering and phase management are instantly activated and ready to be applied to your channel of choice — the same goes for both built-in reverb effects!
More You: build your own ecosystem tailored to suit
The key to unlocking the Xvive More You ecosystem’s dynamic possibilities is its modularity. In a masterstroke of engineering, the aptly named More Port sends audio, power, and data signals between units digitally by way of the 3-pin XLR connectors. Dedicated expansion hubs (sold separately) let you introduce further audio, expanding your channel count via dual combo jacks on each expansion unit. Moreover, each peripheral unit, as well as the main More You Hub, includes 1/8-inch headphone outputs for real-time monitoring, no matter your arrangement. Lastly, every unit hosts a Talkback feature, providing 2-way audio communication among yourself and everyone else dialed into the More You ecosystem!
