1. Introduction

Thank you for choosing the ESI UGM96.

The ultra mobile guitar and microphone to USB interface allows you to connect two guitars (via the

Hi-Z instrument inputs) or one guitar and one microphone simultaneously to your PC or Mac. The

backside offers a stereo output that you can use for monitoring, i.e. with headphones. This makes

UGM96 the perfect companion for guitar recording applications on the road or in your studio.

You can use UGM96 to jam with a guitar and microphone, process the signal with your PC or Mac

notebook or desktop in realtime and listen to the mix directly via headphones - no special adapters

or extra power supplies are needed, you simply plug UGM96 between your guitar, headphones, the

microphone and your computer.

UGM96 comes bundled with Cubase LE 4, the professional multichannel audio sequencing

software from Steinberg and the incredible Studio Devil Virtual Guitar Amp plugin for realtime

guitar amplifier simulation from Gallo Engineering. The combination of both eliminates the need

for cabinets, special microphones, and expensive amps for getting professional guitar tone and

directly start laying down your own tracks. It is simply unbelievable how much functions are

provided by this incredible bundle!
