IK Multimedia iRig HD X is a 24-bit guitar and bass audio interface running sample rates to 96 kHz over USB-C, with a 1 MOhm instrument input, a dedicated amp output and a headphone output. The instrument input reaches 115 dB dynamic range and accepts up to +9 dBu, while the amp and headphone outputs respond from 15 Hz to 40 kHz within 1 dB. It measures 99 x 42 x 25 mm and weighs 54 g.
24-bit guitar recording from something that fits in a jacket pocket.
iRig HD X sits a step above iRig USB on the specifications that matter for recording rather than practice: 24-bit conversion at up to 96 kHz instead of 48 kHz, and 115 dB of dynamic range on the instrument input instead of 90 dB. That is the difference between capturing a usable idea and capturing a keeper.
The 1 MOhm input impedance is high enough to load a passive pickup properly, so the guitar keeps its top end and its resonant character instead of arriving dull. Maximum input level is +9 dBu, which handles hot active pickups without a pad.
Connection is USB-C, and IK includes both a USB-C to USB-C cable and a USB-C to Lightning cable so it works with current and older iOS devices out of the box. On Windows, IK's iRig ASIO driver provides low latency operation.

How Does iRig HD X Compare to iRig USB?
Higher resolution. HD X runs 24-bit conversion at up to 96 kHz with 115 dB of dynamic range on the instrument input, against 48 kHz and 90 dB on iRig USB. It also has a higher 1 MOhm input impedance and ships with both USB-C and Lightning cables. Same size, same weight, same amp output concept.
Who Is iRig HD X For?
Players recording rather than only practicing, where the noise floor and the resolution actually reach the final mix. Also anyone using both a modern USB-C device and an older Lightning device, since both cables are in the box.
Is iRig HD X Good for Travel?
Yes. It is bus powered with no batteries and no adapter, and it ships with both USB-C and Lightning cables so it works with whatever is in the bag. Writers and session players carry it for exactly that reason.
What Comes in the Box?
The iRig HD X interface, a 60 cm USB-C to USB-C cable and a 60 cm USB-C to Lightning cable.
Does It Work With Active Pickups?
Yes. Maximum input level is +9 dBu, which handles active pickup output without needing a pad.
