6. Zoom AMS-24
The Inputs and Outputs
AMS-24 | 2 Inputs and 4 Outputs
The AMS-24 is the perfect solution for solo streams as well as sessions with multiple instruments. It features two XLR/TRS combo inputs with low-noise Zoom preamps. Additionally, there are two headphone outputs and two TRS outputs for connecting external monitors.
Direct Access
Thanks to their physical switches, the AMS-24 and AMS-44 interfaces provide a streaming solution that operates without additional software.
Small Switch, Big Stream
With the Music / Streaming switch, you can easily toggle between recording and streaming modes. In Music mode, the individual inputs can be used and adjusted independently. Furthermore, different mixes can be routed to the headphone outputs.
In Streaming mode, all inputs are combined into a single audio signal that can be seamlessly processed in your streaming software.
Integrated Monitoring
Press the Direct Monitor button to feed the input signal directly to your headphones while simultaneously sending it to your DAW or streaming software.
Loopback Option
The loopback switch allows you to combine the input signal with the playback signal from your computer and feed it into your streaming software. This is the perfect method to add background music to your stream or to combine live vocals with an instrumental track.
7. Zoom AMS-44
The AMS audio interfaces are designed for musicians who want to record music with their DAW or stream it easily and effortlessly via platforms such as YouTube or Twitch.
8. Zoom GCE-3

9. Zoom Uac-8
Expand your USB 3.0 capable Mac or Windows computer – or even your iPad – with the rack-mountable UAC-8, adding 18 inputs and 20 outputs. Connect microphones, line sources, or instruments and produce your first masterpiece. Or take the UAC-8 on stage and benefit from its high-resolution audio playback of up to 24-bit / 192 kHz.
The UAC-8 utilizes the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed protocol, enabling transfer rates that are ten times faster than USB 2.0 and six times faster than FireWire 800. The result? Minimal latency (2.0 ms roundtrip @ 96 kHz / 32 samples) enhances performance with your DAW. The stable data stream is immune to computer jitter (timing fluctuations), making the use of an external clock source unnecessary.
The UAC-8 features high-end components such as the AKM AK5388 analog-to-digital and AKM AK4413 digital-to-analog converters. Additionally, the UAC-8 supports quadruple upsampling for both analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversion. At a sampling rate of 44.1 or 48 kHz, the signal is actually converted at a resolution of 176.4 or 192 kHz.
This reduces aliasing effects during A/D conversion and improves transparency and sound quality during D/A conversion.
In standalone mode, the UAC-8 can also operate as an eight-channel microphone preamp as well as an A/D and D/A converter without being connected to a computer.
