Behringer U-Phoria UMC22 - "May not be pro quality, but great for begtinner - better than UM2 for just a couple of quids more."
Use this on top of my Dell Optiplex 360, have my Neewer 1500 (£18) at Input 1 (XLR powered) and my Tanglewood Jetstream guitar through a Zoom G1on going to Input 2. Really happy with the quality of the sound - its years (30) since I did any home rec…
Tascam US-16X08 - "Great for beginners - lots of I/O"
I've owned this interface for two years now. Previously I had my first Focusrite 8i6 which I upgraded for more imputs. At the time I wasn't even an audio student, just a hobby musician. Bought this interface when I started studying looking for somet…
Audient iD44 - "A perfect interface for its price"
Disclaimer: as I am mostly recording acoustic music and material, this review only intends to apply to my own use and needs. I also use VSTi virtual synths but probably not as often as someone recording electro. My computer’s setup: AMD FX 8350 p…

Universal Audio Apollo Twin Duo USB - "A real gem!"
I use this sound interface to complement (not to say replace) my old ESI ESP 1010e. I went up in terms of range and it’s a real investment but believe me – it was worth it. Latency is ridiculously low, especially in direct monitoring. Using the Uniso…

Alesis Core 1 - "Too bad..."
I’ve used this interface with Ableton. The sound card is stable and provides little latency. The interface is ergonomic: a well-built aluminium casing, and a practical line/guitar switch. This sound card is aimed at travelling musicians or for simpl…
Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 - "High quality, easy to use and QUIET"
Using with RE20 and DBX286A into an Asus SSD laptop with excellent results. Use of FETHEAD to boost gain on RE20 did not add any noise at all to 2i2. Build quality is very high and performance is excellent for recording, podcasting and all vocals, …
Tascam US-16X08 - "No effects loop"
Using a DAW (Cubase Pro 8.5) the device is fine. The drivers I have work (so-far) flawlessly with W10 and a 5 year old I7 processor. The problem for me is this, without the DAW there is no Safe way to set up an effects send/return loop when the devi…
