Line 6 TonePort UX1Published on 08/14/12 at 19:36
Line 6's Toneport UX-1 is one of the first USB-audio interfaces that the company has created, and one of the first to use their brand new Gearbox software. For inputs, it had a single XLR mic preamp input with trim knob, a single 1/4 inch instrument input, two 1/4 inch stereo line inputs, and a 1/4 inch stereo monitor input. For outputs, it had an S/PDIF stereo output (RCA type), 1/4 inch balanced line outputs (controlled by the master volume knob), and a 1/4 inch stereo headphone output. The box was compact, but a fully-functional usb-audio interface, and it comes with Line 6's Gearbox software, which includes multiple guitar and bass amps, vocal preamps, compressors, effects, and much...…

Line 6's Toneport UX-1 is one of the first USB-audio interfaces that the company has created, and one of the first to use their brand new Gearbox software. For inputs, it had a single XLR mic preamp input with trim knob, a single 1/4 inch instrument input, two 1/4 inch stereo line inputs, and a 1/4 inch stereo monitor input. For outputs, it had an S/PDIF stereo output (RCA type), 1/4 inch balanced line outputs (controlled by the master volume knob), and a 1/4 inch stereo headphone output. The box was compact, but a fully-functional usb-audio interface, and it comes with Line 6's Gearbox software, which includes multiple guitar and bass amps, vocal preamps, compressors, effects, and much much more. It's what you would expect form Line 6.

UTILIZATION

One of the unique features of the UX-1 (and other Line 6 audio interfaces) is the use of direct monitoring of the wet, processed guitar signal. Normally, monitoring an input signal requires the signal to pass through the computer software, which usually results in a lag or delay from anywhere to 10ms to a couple seconds. When playing guitar and hearing the sound right back, even the smallest lag (as small as 30ms) can be noticeable, and it can effect your playing, when doing serious recordings. However, with the Line 6 interface, the monitoring of the wet, processed guitar signal is instantaneous, and it does not use significant cpu usage either. This is perfect for recording guitar, as you can use this software and hardware with even mediocre and slow computers, with high latencies.


GETTING STARTED

The Line 6 UX-1 is very simple to set up. You need to register the hardware and software through Line 6's website, but there are no serial keys, challenge/response, or any other protections necessary. You just need to have the hardware plugged in, the software recognizes it, and it automatically activates everything. Very convenient!

OVERALL OPINION

Overall, the UX-1 is a wonderful product, and it can be used as an introductory usb-audio interface for many guitarists, who are looking to get into the recording world.

Good for beginners

Line 6 TonePort UX1Published on 06/05/13 at 09:55
(This content has been automatically translated from French)
Initially I bought it because it was cheap and it allowed me to record guitars and a bass direct sound and put a vst.

Finally I used Cubase 5:
- Record voice on XLR
- Recording guitars through an instrument mic XLR input
- Record low through a pre-amp Ashdown then XLR
- Recording guitar and bass on the DI

UTILIZATION

The drivers are stable only if you use the POD Farm provided and not a cracked version.
Noise level gate: no worries
Latency Level: low

I can record two tracks simultaneously: eg singing with a guitar DI.

GETTING STARTED

Very easy to use. Easy installation.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years but I use it almost over.
In fact I now use a Motu 828 MKII which allows me to record more instruments simultaneously. And I bought it mainly for its much lower THD than the Line 6. If I want to make good decision that will be sent in a studio for the re-amp + mix + master, I need the lowest possible THD.

the Swiss army knife of home studio

Characteristics that led me to purchase:
- Easy to use
- Compact
- Self-powered by USB
- To use the amp simulations line6
- To record guitar, bass, singing, keyboard.

I use it with my guitars, my bass, my microphone and very soon with an old organ from behind the fagots ... :-)

I use it for my own compositions, it allows itself to send maquetter riffs to other musicians. We must go out with a demo, but hey, we should not consider producing an album with this camera, of course.

I have long used an old Pentium 4 with 1GB of RAM, windows xp. Recently, it runs on a Core i3 with 4GB of ram under w7. It is therefore highly resource intensive. No crashes to report.

UTILIZATION

Very reliable, never crashes, I use it with gearbox, its software / driver and cubase. Latency is correct. You can record two tracks at once, something I never do, I do not stretch out on the subject. Drivers for windows 7 has long been expected, but they are now available, for cons, the product is old. I doubt they are updated.

GETTING STARTED

Free installation when you respect the PB instructions: Connect the device AFTER you have installed the driver. The config is very easy. No report has inconsistencies

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since 2006 I appreciate the simplicity of implementation, its low price (which must be even more so today with the market opportunity and the output of the family pod studio) I would do to choice without pb
