    Nice little table to troubleshoot audio usb interface.

    SOUNDS

    It is no longer "the ultimate" as products evolve quickly but that is no ... no!! Must know how to use a table ....

    Certainly a little breath if we push too but gains compressors avoid such problems

    OVERALL OPINION

    Good little table usb audio interface, to help.

    It will serve very well to start in home studio or nomadic taken.

    Very simple to use it simply plug the PC and then it rolls.

    I wanted to use it for voice recordings and I was very disappointed it introduces a huge breath very hard to hide no matter the setting remains highly audible breath ...

    Regarding the outputs I have no complaints about that.

    UTILIZATION

    Very basic, this table is straight to the point and you do not need to know much to use it.
    The usual functions are all easily accessible.

    SOUNDS

    A Lger breath is introduced. It is not dramatic but if you want to do a good recording even when it is problematics. The sound is fairly clean but this table is not DEFINITIONS bte of competitions which this level. However compared to the cot all the same it is correct!

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been 2 years since I use it. I t trsdu to beginners because j'esprais be able to spare on each channel USB. Now the USB output is stereo, you can save the best 2 entries at the same time playing on the NAP right / left.
    She followed me in many concerts and has avre trsrsistante.
    The effects are few, but correct, however, somewhat limits.
    I have not had the opportunity to use many other tables for now, but it seems to me a very good report qualitprix. It is above the low end, but introduces all the same breath a little and has limited possibilities in relation to the most luxurious tables. It is ideal for a small group with one or two singers, who do not need to be included in the sound, and wishing each instrument occasionally save a small demo.
    Caution, however, taking the battery s'avre difficult since there are really only 2 tracks sent via USB.
