Good sound quality, marred by the software and ergonomics
Cyprus Andrew 16.04.2018
I bought this so I could use my PC as a recording studio. Out of the box, it worked well but when I downloaded the official drivers it became very flakey - every few minutes it would die and I'd have to unplug it and plug it in again to get it back. Deleting the drivers lost the ASIO capability, but at least it works reliably. The drivers referred to 4 inputs (1/2, 3/4) but, in fact, it has two inputs - there is another pair on the back, but they are accessed with a push button. Unfortunately, that's also on the back so it's quite awkward to switch over to using the rear inputs. Sound quality is really good - big step up over the PC's built in sound card.

Let down by its Windows driver
BK75 15.08.2018
Despite its excellent ASIO driver (v1.2) that allows for the usage at almost imperceptible ~3ms latency in a relatively complex projects, constant glitches in non-ASIO programs (music and video players, YouTube in browsers) and intermittent loss of connectivity made me return this otherwise great little device. Its footprint is perfect, main outs are loud and clear as is the headphone amp (much better than on my old Line6 UX2) driving my AKG K240, but knowing very well how long it can take for these companies to release driver updates that would fix such glaring issues (if they release them at all), I will have to look elsewhere for an upgrade.

Kleines, unkompliziertes Interface
Lutz aus C. 08.02.2021
Ich nutze das Interface als mobilen Begleiter am Notebook. Für diesen Zweck ist es völlig ausreichend.
Man kann es nicht mit den großen Studiointerfaces vergleichen, gerade beim Klang nicht. Zwischen meinem großen Motu und dem hier liegen Welten.
Aber es hat viele Vorteile: USB powered und class compliant. Es braucht keine Treiber, kein Netzteil und arbeitet auch unter Linux.
Es ist auch erstaunlich robust.
Die Klangqualität ist in Ordnung, die Anschlussmöglichkeiten sind ausreichend vielseitig. Der Mikrofonvorverstärker ist ok. Sehr praktisch ist die Abhörfunktion am zweiten Eingang. Man kann das Signal, das vom PC kommt, parallel zum EIngang hören. Da lässt sich super zu Musik vom PC jammen.
Fummelig ist der Lautstärkeregler für den Kopfhörer. Der große Regler ist nur für die Monitorausgänge hinten. An Monitoren hab ich das Gerät noch nie betrieben.
Fazit: Gutes, unkompliziertes Interface für die meisten Zwecke völlig ausreichend.

Gran interfaz de audio
Anonymous 03.03.2017
Cumple todo lo que promete en la descripción. Si bien el software incluido no fue muy de mi agrado, es fácil hacerse con alternativas sencillas de utilizar. Tiene un gran acabado y una construcción sólida. No tiene demasiado ruido, y tanto ese problema como el de la latencia fueron fáciles de solucionar. Muy recomendable en general!
