The ZOOM UAC-232 USB Audio Converter is the first dedicated 32-bit float audio interface, designed for musicians who demand more quality in their productions.
No Need to Set Gain
Whether you're recording in the studio or on stage, sound levels can fluctuate. The UAC-232's 32-bit float technology captures clip-free, low-noise recordings without the need to set gain.
Zooms Finest Preamps
Featuring the same clean, low-noise preamps used in Zoom professional F-Series recorders, the UAC-232 guarantees high-quality recordings in any setting.
For Music
Whether you're recording or streaming live, with 32-bit float technology you don't have to worry about getting the ideal input gain or monitoring your levels.
For Podcasts & Voiceovers
For podcasters and voiceover artists, 32-bit float ensures full quality audio for the entire dynamic range of a performance. It also protects against clipping when levels are not being monitored.
More Control
The UAC-232 Mix Control software allows you to modify I/O routing, activate loopback, and control input and monitoring levels. You can also activate Music mode to route to your DAW or Streaming mode combining all inputs into a single signal for streaming software.
Loopback
The Loopback function combines the input audio with playback from your computer and routes it to your software. Perfect for adding background music to your stream or singing live with an instrumental track.
Latency-Free Monitoring
Use the Direct Monitor switch to send the input signal directly to your headphones while routing the same signal to your DAW or streaming software.
Mix Control allows you to adjust volume and pan for your direct monitor feed.
Powerful Headphone Output
Monitor louder and clearer with the 100 milliwatt headphone output. Enough power to drive the most demanding headphones with no distortion.
Built-In MIDI
The MIDI in/out allows you to connect to external MIDI gear such as drum machines, synths and keyboards.
Compact Design
The UAC-232 Audio Converter can be placed anywhere. Set it up vertically, horizontally or mount it to a mic stand with the included flat cable straps.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
