US-4x4HR : Very helpful for recording rehearsal

2 years ago

I am in a three piece band and we wanted to start recording our rehearsals to possibly make some kind of album or just to see where we were. We started using a 2 channel audio interface, but it almost immediately became appearant that we wouldn't get the sound we wanted, and so, i decided to look for a 4 channel audio interface so we could record 4 seperate tracks live, and then i found this.

Pros :

You can record 4 seperate tracks at once

The microphone pre-amp sounds pretty good

there's little to no "hum" present on the tracks

The outputs on the back make recording live much easier

the 2 headphone jacks are just very convenient

The software for the interface is very easy to use

Cons :

i honestly can't think of anything, this to me seems almost perfect

one thing i will note though is that the first time we used this, the first 2 tracks seemed to include tracks 3 and 4, almost like a digital sound bleed.

The second time, though, this did not happen at all. if i had to guess, it's because i didn't restart the computer after installing the software.

Overall, this has just made recording much easier and i see no reason not to buy this, especially at the price point.
