Nio 2/4 is a USB audio/MIDI interface with 2 inputs and 4 outputs. It is ultra-reliable, compact and easy to use, ideal for recording artists and laptop DJs. 

4 phono outputs for routing 2 stereo signals to either side of a mixer, and 2 headphone outs to cue-up tracks before sending them to the mix.

Nio has a microphone input and a line input for recording guitars (or any external instrument). It also has 2 headphone outputs for monitoring recordings, and further outputs to go to your main monitors. 

Nio includes 'Direct FX' which run 'in the audio driver', so avoiding the latency you experience with plug-ins. These include:

• reverb, compression, EQ from Focusrite

• multi-FX derived from Novation's legendary Supernova II synth.

• Guitar FX from Overloud

 

Novation’s unique ‘Direct FX’ technology places a powerful multi-effects engine within nio 2 | 4’s custom drivers. This effects engine rests at the core of your computer, working independently of other software. Effects operating within this engine are almost entirely free of any latency, leaving the artist to use any combination of effects in real time for hassle-free jamming and recording. The result of this technology is the 'nio FX rack, which allows you to build, save and recall an FX rack of your choosing.
