A Convenient, All-in-one Studio Solution
The Behringer Studio L combines effective studio control and communication with a capable 2-in/2-out USB audio interface. This convenient studio solution packs a monitor controller, a source selector, a monitor switcher, and talkback into a streamlined, desktop-friendly unit. The Studio L is centered around a VCA-controlled volume knob, which provides super-precise level control. This multifunction monitor controller accommodates two sets of studio monitors, and it includes four inputs with level controls, plus USB monitoring from your DAW. The talkback section includes an onboard microphone and a level control. You also get handy mono, mute, and dim functions. The Studio L's built-in audio interface operates at up to 192kHz for the best sound possible, and it includes two Midas mic preamps with +48V phantom power. Plus, dual headphone amplifiers make private monitoring a cinch. Zero-latency direct monitoring, a quick-access auxiliary input, and high-precision dual LED meters round out the Studio L's robust feature set.

Employs a high-precision VCA-controlled volume knob
The Studio L's monitoring section features a class-leading VCA-controlled volume knob, rather than a low-quality potentiometer. When you pass audio directly through a volume potentiometer, it can degrade your signal. The Studio L, on the other hand, employs a separate, high-precision amplifier to drive the volume change. Studio engineers here at Sweetwater prefer this design for its signal purity, spatial and phase coherency, and hyper-accurate performance.
