Steinberg Yamaha CI2 USB Advanced Integration Studio Review


The Steinberg CI2 is a USB-powered audio interface and controller with Advanced Integration features. Together, CI2 and the included Cubase AI 5 software present a complete recording system, providing a plug-and-play solution for recording and editing vocals and instruments with a computer in next to no time. With 24-bit resolution and a sampling rate of 48 kHz, the CI2 offers a professional digital audio recording standard that lets you record the music in studio quality.


When the CI2 was first demonstrated to our staff this last summer at the MIAC trade show, we were blown away by the intuitive nature of the Advanced Integration controls. Basically a lock, control and action button integrate into Cubase AI 5 to give you easy control over any parameter your mouse points to. One of the coolest features was the ability to assign the action button to repetitive, circular tasks, as seen in the photo. So simple, yet such a great feature that we have not seen in any other product.


The CI2 USB Advanced Integrated Studio would be perfect for the singer/songwriter, guitarist or the pro Cubase user who wants a small interface with some advanced controls. We were impressed and you will be too.

The Steinberg CI2 first Canadian shipment is mid October 2009.
