UMC404HD : Unbeatable value

Used in my home studio, with Cubase 10, Studio One, and from time to time Reaper.

I bought this to replace my dead Focusrite Saffire Pro 14. Almost as a kind of a backstop. But it works really well, albeit that the configuration app is a bit basic to say the least. It's typical Behringer, built down to a price but at the same time doing what it says on the box.

For a home studio it has my recommendation; if you want four inputs there really doesn't seem much benefit in investing in a more expensive unit.

Pros: easy to use, 4 channels and MIDI. Nice pre-amps. 2 monitor outs, Pad button on front inputs. Reliable USB connection. It 'just works' as the saying goes.

Cons: very simplistic control app. Not the lowest latency I've seen in a USB interface (use Studio One and it is a non issue). Quite wide (if that matters to you). Not the strongest build quality in the world, but more than good enough.
