TOP

I was looking for a good beginner setup to stream, record and just sound professional when gaming and i was not expecting for a such low price to sound so damn good and be of high quality but this interface is amazing for this price.

I already recommended to all my friends and after like 6 months of using it daily i didn't expect any issues with it and i also added some plugins for it and it sounds more professional now. Buy and Enjoy guys, this is all i can say about this Audio Interface.

Great value

I ordered my second one of this product. It has just the right inputs/outputs, the preamps are really good quality, especially considering the low price.

Good sound card

In use for more than a year. Connected to the computer. I play Harley Benton CST-24T guitar through it. I did not notice a strong delay and any extraneous noise. Listening to music and watching movies have become more interesting) It remains to purchase normal speakers.

Nice budget soundcard

Awesome in all respects. For only 65 euro you get 2 line inputs, fantom power, etc. Didn't see any significant difference between this and Scarlett Solo 3rd gen. The only minus is not the most handy position of knobs.

Excellent Quality and Features

If you're in the market for an audio interface, you probably know what you're looking for. What I can say about this is that I got it to upgrade from a 2-input Behringer UMC, as that one was so good, and this hasn't disappointed either. Sound and build quality are excellent. Also, it seems ridiculous to me that other audio interfaces in the same price range don't offer MIDI I/O, but here it is. Another reason to buy.

Great

Great product, does what it says it should do. The dials feel smooth, the sound is great. Would definitely recommend it.

What a star

I am ecstatic with this purchase.

The preamps are pretty good and even in between 70% and 90% capacity the noise floor remains low (used with a dynamic microphone, I recorded -50db to my DAW). To be fair that's the amount of gain necessary to run an SM57 through it, so I would say the gain supplied is adequate but not ample.

Everything about the interface seems sturdy, from the chassis to the knobs. I do not find it finicky.

The ability to mix wet and dry signals for real time monitoring is great, although not exclusive to this product. All other controls are likewise easily accessible.

Last, (although subjective) this interface is extremely pleasing aesthetically, with a slick down-to-business look I simply adore

Best bang for buck!

I am a professional musician / producer spending a lot of time in the studio with very expensive equipment. But studios can sometimes be a hassle for creative work, specially when you are on the go all the time. in that sense it's also a hassle to lug around expensive equipment that gets lost in transport or damaged or stolen.

I work in Bitwig on Linux and this little cutie works out of the box (Class compliant). Clean and industrial design, packed with all the in's and out's you could ever need. I have recorded a couple of songs on this unit that play on the radio just fine. You can always discuss the "sound" of the recording signal, but maybe we should be discussing players and mixers ability to do their jobs. :-)

I recommend this to everyone!

Fits well to my simple home studio

I am satisfied with the purchase.

Have many features that you don't normally find on Audio Interfaces in this price range.

Works well with DAW programs on my computer.

Really good for the price

Given the price, this is obviously not the most extensive experience with an audio interface money can buy. It is, however, more than enough for an audio enthusiast on a budget.

It drives my AKG K240 headphones and my AT P48 microphone without a hitch. It requires it's own proprietary drivers which is to be expected I think. It's pretty bare bones regarding the features but gives off a very nice and sturdy impression when handling it, which leads me to believe that it won't break any time soon.

Decent for the price

Bought this a while back to replace a compact mixer setup, took a while to get used to it but it gets the job done.

The only thing i dont like is having to record mics in mono when i could do it in stereo on my old setup.

Outside of that pretty happy with it, mostly use it for voice chat and listening to music.

Great for the price

The background hiss is very low, it seems to be of great quality due to the metal casing and works great for home recording.

Whilst it worked without a problem in GNU/LInux it was a bit awkward installing it on Windows.

Perfect for beginner amateur recording

If you're just starting with an instrument, or you're starting to do some first recordings this thing is great.

Has decent sound quality - not the best - but definitely not bad for the price range - great for the price even.

Decent sound quality while recording - voice recording via mic is fantastic - keep in mind this unit is 80Euro. Two available mic inputs and a real-time stereo monitor out make it easy and awesome to work with - no crackling - easy to adjust gain. I'm sure there are better ADCs out there, but not sure you'll find it for this price.

The box seems all aluminium - controls are definitely clearly labeled and intuitive - they're not fancy looking, nor the highest quality knobs, however, they do the job well, and after several months, there's still no issues with any of the controls. Am fairly sure this will last a while, just be gentle.

Overall, great for the price.

Best low price interface!

Absolutely one of the best low priced USB interfaces. Everything works like a charm, the sound isn't nothing special, but there is no problem with it, no noise, no distortion. The best inexpensive tool for the home studio and also a very good tool in the live world (RTA/recordingetc..)!

For it's price very good.

Like the sound, especially on headphones, in this price category I think is the best choice.

best value for money audio interface...

It's amazing that you get an audio interface with 2 inputs , 4 outputs and midi connections for under 100 euro, there is no point to buy the expensive ones from other brands (i'm not gonna say names). Works well , and not problems what so ever. Great product..

Best in class

That 24 Bit 192 kHz tool has everything U can need from audio interface: 2 combo inputs with hi-Z switch, MIDI In/Out, mono switch and even 2 inserts - what to want more? It is not an audiphil level with 100 dB dynamics, but ... for the price is perfect!
