Best value for money ever

I always suggest the ID22, pre-amp are great as well as the converters. For this money you can’t find better audio interfaces.

The program isn’t always very intuitive but it’s ok. Some audio interfaces are easier to be carried around but it’s just a minor issue.

Good piece until it fails

It's quite capable as long as it lasts but has a design flaw concerning a cheap capacitor placed at the wrong place. That's the most common and inevitable fail these devices are prone to. Mine had a different failure though.

You can have a good run or end up with a dead box in 1-2 years.

Audition this interface now

High quality build and audio and easy to use. The controls feel solid and are easy to change settings. The choice of options is good especially for microphone input vocal usage. The speaker outs sound fantastic too through my Adam A8X monitors as does the headphone output. I have recorded tens of albums using this interface and have had top quality results. Highly recommended.

Have this a few years now but it was doomed from the start!

Some really cool features but was let down by the build, inputs went after 6 months, constant static noise on the outputs, had so much potential so maybe they improved it on the ID44 but I would advise against purchasing the ID22!.... please read reviews on gearspace before considering!
