Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
1. Will the iD4 MKII also work on my iPad? Yes, the iD4 MKII is compatible with iOS devices (USB-C iPads directly, older models via a camera adapter kit). This makes it the ultimate mobile recording solution.
2. What is ScrollControl? Pressing the volume knob turns it into a controller for your software. Wherever your mouse cursor is above (such as a fader or EQ knob), you can make adjustments with the rotary knob.
3. Do I need a separate power supply? No, the interface is fully “bus-powered” via the USB-C cable. It also provides full +48V phantom power to your condenser microphones without an additional adapter.
4. Is software included? Sure! You get access to the ARC Software Suite, which includes Steinberg Cubase LE, virtual instruments and plug-ins from Eventide and GForce.
5. Can I use two headphones at the same time? Yes, the iD4 MKII has two outputs that work in parallel. This is ideal if you want to listen to a mix with someone else or monitor a recording.
