UCG102 : Great value for the price

4 years ago

I had some doubts because so many people reported issues with usage with Windows 10. I founded no issues whatsoever. It runs right out of the box, plug and play. All I had to do is to install newest ASIO4all driver from the official manufacturer's page. Currently in beta but working fine. It's easy to connect to you favorite DAW software like Reaper and to record or monitor from multiple devices. For example I use PC USB headset not output on the device itself and it's great. No latency no nothing. You can set up as many of the output devices as you wish in ASIO, you just need to open advanced settings.

Product is made of plastic but it feels very sturdy. For home usage and hobby players, more than sufficient in my opinion.

There is only one thing that bothers me and that's the background noise from the device. You can hear humming/hissing noise all the time. This is easily fixed in the amp simulation or DAW software by applying noise reduction or noise gate effect at the start of the signal chain.

All in all, I'm more than happy with the purchase and can recommend the product to all amateur, hobby players for home usage.
