Where each one actually leads

Every axis is scored out of 10 from the catalog specs below. The scores are relative to the products on this page, so a 10 means “best of these”, not “perfect”, and two identical columns mean the catalog genuinely cannot separate them. Axes the catalog holds no figure for on both sides are left off entirely rather than guessed at.

The Split

What each one wins

Audient EVO 16 Audio Interface

Desktop audio interface intended for creator workflows, microphone input, monitoring, and clean signal routing.

On paper the Audient EVO 16 Audio Interface takes TRS outputs (8, +6). It gives up sample rate to the Solid State Logic UF8 Audio Interface. It is the cheaper of the two, by $70.00.

Leads on

  • TRS Outputs +6
    8
    2

    More TRS outputs allow routing to studio monitors and outboard gear.

Solid State Logic UF8 Audio Interface

Desktop audio interface intended for creator workflows, microphone input, monitoring, and clean signal routing.

On paper the Solid State Logic UF8 Audio Interface takes sample rate (192kHz, +96kHz). It gives up TRS outputs to the Audient EVO 16 Audio Interface. That costs $70.00 more than the Audient EVO 16 Audio Interface.

Leads on

  • Sample Rate +96kHz
    192kHz
    96kHz

    Higher sample rates capture more audio detail — important for professional recording and mixing.

Where they’re identical

These 5 specs are the same on both of them, so none of it is part of the decision.

  • Connection Type usb-c, xlr, trs
  • Operating System windows, macos
  • Bit Depth 24-bit
  • Phantom Power Yes
  • XLR Inputs 2

Bottom Line

Who each one is for

The Audient EVO 16 Audio Interface is the pick on the specs the catalog holds, but “better on paper” and “right for you” are different questions. Each case below names what the product is actually good at and who that suits.

Our pick
Best ValueMost Connectivity

At $129.00, the Audient EVO 16 Audio Interface is the most affordable option — 35% less than the priciest pick. It leads in TRS outputs (8). Offers the most spec advantages per dollar in this comparison.

  • + More TRS outputs (8 vs 2)
  • × Lower sample rate (96kHz vs 192kHz)

Also worth knowing

  • ✓ You want the stronger TRS outputs (8)
  • ✓ Budget is your top priority — $70.00 less than the priciest option
  • ✓ You want to capture computer audio without a second interface
  • ✓ You want room for eight more inputs later, without replacing the box

Look elsewhere if

  • × You need the highest sample rate available (192kHz)

Best for value-focused buyers, complex setup builders.

The alternative

At $199.00, the Solid State Logic UF8 Audio Interface is the priciest option — a premium pick if brand, build, or specific features matter to you. It leads in sample rate (192kHz). Fewer ports and inputs — plug in and go.

  • + Higher sample rate (192kHz vs 96kHz)
  • × Fewer TRS outputs (2 vs 8)

Also worth knowing

  • ✓ You want 192kHz sample rate for higher-resolution audio

Look elsewhere if

  • × You're on a tight budget — save $70.00 with a cheaper option
  • × You need the best TRS outputs available

Best for beginners, high-resolution audio production.
