I used to use an M Audio Fast Track j'tais pretty good product (no prampli, latency, cheap housing), so I looked for a box mic / guitar prampli phantom power supply and a price acceptable to use complment GR 2.

I use it on a PowerMac G5 2x2GHz, 2GB RAM.

With Shure SM57 or 58, and with my Les Paul through a jack. Headphone output.

UTILIZATION

The installation was without problem except that the CD that came Gearbox quite dated (v 1.x), so I put it to V-day 3.x. Fortunately Monkey software is very well done for and everything is automatic.

No inconsistency, except that the pump housing a lot of juice on the USB 2 and therefore, I have to plug one into the USB port.

Gnrale the config is very simple and it works the first time.

GETTING STARTED

The drivers are stable and many updates.

on the other hand, bad point, there is no plug-in, or plutt have to pay 199 euros to buy more! It hurts. For guitar, not a big deal (how to add effects intrt APRS?) But the voice is a shame. This will require record live. In addition, all effects and the Pod XT simus are not willing, you have to buy packs and more ...

Latency is zero since everything goes through the box is IDAL and much better than a classic case.

Gnial is something to the database of available effects, one can find by title or guitarist and hop in one click was the sound! It's a big advantage over Guitar Rig 2, the community is lacking.

For cons, I find the quality of the effects as good as Guitar Rig 2 or ToneLab Vox ... When I use the simulation Marshall Guitar Rig 2 tural and I find while in Gearbox Submitted, it is clearly less than the original Fidler.

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using three short weeks. I find it perfect for the price, you can have no better case as mic / guitar with effects of good quality. Damage against the plug in is paying, if you do not want the guitar, Guitar Rig 2 is INTERESTED in this regard. I also find GR 2 at best made especially distortion and amp Fidler to home (at least for Marshall).

The UX2 is the IDAL to record his voice and his guitar, it's simple, the case is solid, well Designed and ergonomic with the addition of VU meters.

The pramps are really good quality especially for voice.

In short, with this case, we can not regret his purchase!
