ID22 : Good sound and a lot of features for the price - Sadly broke after 3.5 years.

I've been using the Audient ID22 for 3.5 years, all in my home studio. Sound is good both in and out and I like the interface. The converters are really good for the price. It has a lot of capabilities in form of in and outs, even though I haven't used half of them since I don't have the need.

Sadly the interface broke down 3.5 years into use. A hissing sounds has appeared an after some research this has happened to a lot of users about 4 years into use. The build inside the interface is not great and easily causes capacitators to melt. I wish Audient would've taken more care when building this interface.

The warranty has expired and I was referenced to ship it for repairs on the other side of the country, at my own expense. This would run me the cost of at least a half new ID22, with no guarantee that it will last. The uncertainty and lack of assurance from their support will lead me to look for a new interface. Shame.
