U-Phoria UMC202HD : The best cheap 2i2 interface

I needed it to record bass, guitars and singing.

Pros:

It does the job very well. Solid built, unique sound and for the bass I prefer this from the other budget 2i2s interfaces. Overall this interface is a very good buy and I recommend it without a doubt.

Cons:

1) As other users have stated, when you use direct monitoring you hear the instrument only in the side of the input. For example when I record from the first input I listen from only the left side of headphones/ speakers and that can be annoying

2) I use ableton as a daw and when I close the sound card driver to listen something else from my pc (outside of the daw), the drivers get stuck and I have to unplug and connect again the interface. This is a driver problem however so it may be fixed someday
