The media could not be loaded. So I spent quite a bit of time looking at different Barringer products I’ve seen some people say the 202 is superior because of X reason. Or the 222 is superior because of another X reason. So I think this is really the more appropriate answer to what everybody’s looking for when they research this item it’s got to be the same thing there’s no other explanation why this company would write one model number on one side of it a different model number on the other side of it (the black tape is covering the serial number because I didn’t want someone going on the website and getting software by registering the product using my serial number because I haven’t done that yet)( and I’m wearing a glove so you don’t have to look at my ugly hands because I can’t stand it when people put ugly hands in pictures LOL) and I totally do not believe it this is a bootleg item or a copy or something because it’s the same color all the way around we’re typically the 202 model is the silver model & also a lot more money on Amazon at least. So it would make no sense to reproduce the much more inexpensive model using the much more expensive model to reproduce with so we can throw that idea out the window this is definitely not fake or anything like that it’s legitimate I just don’t understand how people doing all this heavy research can say one item is different than the other or how one in superior because of a certain thing it’s obviously the same item and I left a video of it so you could see that there isn’t any kind of trick photography at play or something like that, so you know that this is a 100% the same item made by Behringer and I definitely believe that you can take all those other peoples opinions on why something is different and throw it out the window because it really seems like they don’t know what they’re talking about I bet that the silver model the 202 is probably a much older model and that’s probably why it’s more money because it’s probably not available anymore and so you can probably only get it in limited numbers and it’s not a fact that’s just my opinion I don’t know why it’s almost 3 times the value I mean that would make sense to me why it cost more I don’t have that model and I’m not comparing it to that model. Ring to my own model it’s the same thing as both of them it’s just red instead of silver. The model I just purchased clearly states that it’s a ACU202 and a ACU222 I don’t know if somebody else has already said this but I can’t believe that I am the first person to figure this out maybe I’m not maybe this is already a review that’s already been given I didn’t really look at all the reviews I did do a lot of research into this item though before purchasing it because I wanted to know if I was purchasing the right one and I’ve seen so many different things on why again one or the other was superior in someway. I think bottom line get the cheaper one it’s going to be the exact same thing and until I see an actual comparison of the two different models in a review head to head against each other that clearly shows a difference they obviously are not different in anyway except for that one was probably not made recently where the other one was made recently. Hope that helps somone do you wanna research into the two different model numbers like I did How does operation how it sounds like kind of thing it’s fine it’s it’s does exactly what you probably expected to do and I haven’t found anything but it won’t do that it claims it can and it’s probably a lot more things you can do with it that I haven’t even figured out yet you can however use it to listen to a device that doesn’t have a headphone jack if it has a USB jack that I did figure out on my own so it’s good for the new iPads which only have a USB-C jack I put one of those mobile phone adapters the USB a to USB see adapter thing on the end plug in my iPad plugged in so the headphones into it and honestly it’s the cheapest way I’ve been able to figure out how to use the old you know headphone jacks with the what is that called LLRS I think connectors so I occasionally use it to listen to my older sets of headphones that I have that are really nice headphones but they’re just those older models they don’t have a USB-C connector and I just recently purchased a mini hub for IPad for Cheap on Amazon and I didn’t work at all not even on any device I tried it on the more expensive hubs is probably what you would need and this UCA222 here is like half the price of the seconds cheapest iPad hub you can get so I mean that’s a plus right there which they don’t advertise this device as being able to do that however I figured out you could so that was a a nice little bonus I think all in all of this is U-Control UCA222 more than worth it’s value for what they charge ( it’s practically free) for it and again I hope this review helps also I sure know that I wish I could’ve read this review when I was looking into buying this. It would have saved me a lot of time even though it’s a very long review and mostly nonsense OK thank you very much!!!! And Especially thank you seller I gave you five stars in everything I feel you more than deserve it

I wanted an external audio interface for recording music into and through my laptops, which have unacceptably noisy mic inputs. I went with the Behringer UCA-222 because it was dirt cheap. So far it's fine for my purposes, nothing fancy, but I didn't expect anything fancy. Here are a few observations that may help other buyers, things Behringer doesn't really clarify in their documentation and advertising, or otherwise might be relevant and helpful to know before buying. 1) I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how the UCA-222 differs, if at all, from the slightly cheaper UCA-202 ( Behringer U Control UCA202 USB Audio Interface ). I finally concluded that the only differences are the name (202 vs 222), the color (222 is sports car red), and the software included. The units are otherwise identical. This is useful to know, since I've read people on other forums wondering this too. Behringer seems to go to lengths not to say this in so many words. I have a theory why (just a theory) and it involves the other main difference, the software that comes with the 222. Now more on that: 2) The 202 comes with the free and open source Audacity, and with Kreatives' Kristal Audio Engine (also free)--(neither one is the best free choice out there). The 222, on the other hand, also comes with Energy XT2.5 ("Compact Behringer Edition") and another disk with "over 100 virtual instruments plus more than 50 effects plug-ins including VST host-, audio- and podcast-software for direct start-up." For me, the question became, is the 222 worth $6 more to get this software? I decided, what the heck. Some notes on this software: EnergyXT2.5 Compact: EnergyXT is a more or less full-featured digital audio workstation that Behringer is also promoting as their exclusive sequencing solution, in several packages (overpriced, imho, see for example: Behringer energyXT2.5 Portable Digital Audio Workstation (Standard) . You can download and buy the full-sized program for 59 euros, and the upgrade from the limited compact edition sells for 29 euros. So, doing the math, the retail price for this program is about 30 euros (~$37 by today's exchange rate). The compact version is limited to 8 tracks (so you'll have to bounce down to get extra space), 8 simultaneous instruments (not a big limitation), 2 global send effects, and 2 insert effects per mixer channel (which CAN be a BIG limitation!), plus a couple other details (see EnergyXT website to dig out details). I have other workstations that I'm used to and prefer, so this wasn't a great addition for me. But all audio recorders know that having another piece of software, with its internal effects and abilities, on hand can come in handy at times. (EnergyXT for example has a nice internal drum machine). Another note: EnergyXT is more suited to MIDI than to audio (it looks and feels a lot like FruityLoops), whereas I like Reaper, Cubase, and Magix better. Like Reaper, EnergyXT is small, light, and seemingly pretty fast (I haven't used it enough to know whether it lives up to the speed and stability that they tout for it)--and it does get a 9/10 user rating on kvraudio. The "U-Control Ultimate Software Package": There are indeed a lot of good things on this disk. But most if not all of them are free for the downloading (as free- or shareware) online. Knowing something about the VST world, this is more or less what I expected to find, when Behringer was giving away "150 vsts!" for about $6. That's actually the sneaky little secret in this product and how it is marketed, but you can't really blame Behringer too much. It doesn't make very good ad copy to say: "And we'll throw in a CD that includes over 150 pieces of freeware and shareware that you could download yourself. But hey, they're all here in one place, organized on a disk. That should be worth something, right?" But the bottom line is, that is worth something, even for those (like me) who have all or most of this stuff already lying around in my downloads and already installed in my VST folders. But I hope at the very least that Behringer has arranged some sort of profit-sharing deal with the many hobbyist, semi-pro, and struggling pro software developers that made this stuff. I mean, it would be sleazy of them if they're just bundling up freeware to add value to their product and not paying for it. On the assumption that they ARE paying the software developers for it, I feel good about contributing a bit to all those great VST developers, even if it is pocket change and via a big pro-audio hardware company. Again on the assumption that Behringer is paying the free software developers for distribution rights, I'm not going to go ahead and write up a list of the exact VSTs and other software that is included (as I initially intended to do). If you know what I'm talking about here, chances are you've downloaded and used and enjoyed much of this stuff for free for years. If you're considering whether to buy the 222 or 202, and wondering whether the $6 or so more you'll spend (by Amazon's prices) is worth it, just ask yourself if you want or need a licensed copy of EnergyXT and/or a CD with a bunch of great (and middling) shareware VSTs and VSTis all organized by type on a CD, for easy loading on any new computer. If those two things are worth $6 to you, go with the 222. If not, go for the 202. Same piece of hardware (except of course the sporty cherry red: in the end, that was one reason I went for it, I liked the color a bit better). The UCA222 itself is pretty bare-bones and basic. I use it to connect my laptop to an external mixer into which I route my guitar amps and microphones. It uses the Windows Legacy Audio Drivers, so you don't have to install any driver (though Behringer does provide one, but I did not install it, since I use ASIO4ALL to perfect satisfaction). The unit's output maps onto a standard Windows Audio Software Mixer and the volume is controlled at the software side. The unit's input is far more basic: it does not even generate a slider in the Record side of the Windows Mixer. You'll have to go into a program that records (your sequencer), set the input to the USB device, and arm an input to detect it. This took me some time to figure out (and I generally understand how these audio devices connect to programs)--in fact, I thought my unit's inputs were defective for a little while till I figured it out. But in the end it worked (with a little bit of annoyance and time wasted). Another thing to know is that the unit is strictly 16 bit audio. This will definitely matter to many recording enthusiasts. 24 bit devices are readily available these days, and if digital quality is of the utmost essence, you will probably not be satisfied in the end with the UCA-222 (or 202). Bottom line: It's hard to beat Behringer's bare-bones units for price. If you have a need or use for the extra software--and it's a good bag of goodies--throw in another $6 for the shiny red 222.

The hardware itself was as advertised. However, I was expecting software on a CD inside the manufacturer's packaging. The CD was not there. The user's manual stated that the contents of the CD may vary when the purchased item is bundled with other hardware and drivers may be downloaded from the manufacturer's website. This wasn't a bundle, and the user's manual did not say that there might not be a CD at all. Many of us remember when it was much easier to simply insert the CD containing the desired software when installing, instead of searching a manufacturer's website and trying to guess which software and drivers we need to download. Despite the advantages of today's internet, downloading software is not always one of them. The manufacturer has an outstanding reputation, and I intend to search its website, after which there may be an update to this review.
