Value For Money :
Excellent
I was looking for a way to record vocals on a PC config with XP Pro SP3, 2.6GHz Quad Xeon with Reaper in the record "amateurs" a dozen times a year max. I took it as a bundle with a Rode NT1A (value for money by the way).
Otherwise it is easy to setup: USB cable, 2 in combo XLR / Neutrik jack with 48V phantom power supply that can connect a microphone and singing an acoustic example, in two out jack 6.35 to go to the monitoring and output headphone jack is also 6.35. Nothing is missing for this configuration. The pottards are accurate and of good quality.
It fulfills its function, the preamps are good, even if they are not worth much more expensive models. But do comprare what is comparable. In this price range, it is hard to beat.
UTILIZATION
Little star less because the drivers seem a bit flaky: if you install it and you did not disconnect (which should be the case you might say) is nickel. on the other hand if you need to lug the gear to record also, I had the misfortune of having to reinstall once the drivers. The latest version seems to correct this concern compared to the previous one. Since RAS.
GETTING STARTED
Very simple to implement. No need to open the manual. While thinking about taking (as always) the latest drivers on the manufacturer's website and not the version included with the CD.
OVERALL OPINION
For the use I make, namely occasional recordings, it's a great product given its price / quality ratio.
