"The best audio/recording interface for homerecording!!!"

Feature:
You get alot features for a low price. - ZERO latency monitoring... (ToneDirect, and drivers are just an excellent work from line6) - Instrument(guitar/bass) preamp - Mic pream w/ phantom - Multifx - Good quantity of inputs and outputs (remeber that this is for homerecording.. you dont need 2387562 Inputs and outputs)

Quality:
It's made of plastic..., but looks and feels sturdy for me.

Value:
For the features you get... i think theres no competition in this price range. For the price you cant go wrong

Desirability:
Well, that red and black scheme of colours looks very sexy in my studio.

Sound:
Being an music engineer and guitarist and a 10year recording experience, i've heard an used lots of interfaces, effects and sounds, and believe me that UX2 being mainly for home recording purposes i can achieve sounds that are side to side with some pro interfaces and effects. But here i need to differentiate two things HARDWARE and SOFTWARE... In terms of hardware: UX2 really sports very high quality AD/DA converters also the circuitry is extremely good reducing pops and static problems. In terms of software The clean tones you get with UX2 w/Gearbox are just fantastic. distortions are more tricky but with some tweaking you can achieve really good distortions... But my real secret for distortions is using Guitar Rig 3, the best you can get for distortions in a PC environment and using through Toneport is just amazing what you can get. As for using this with a mic, you get really clean and crystal clear sounds... try to not max out the gain because it can become buzzy but if you keep a correct distance then there wouldnt be a problem... You can be amazed of what you can do with a Shure SM58 (my battle mic) .

Ease of Use:
It's just matter of installing drivers/software, connecting it to the PC and plug your instrument or mic and you are ready to go... The only think that i dislike is the inclusion of Ableton... i just dont like it...

Support:
I've only used the discussion board... and i've got quick answers to my doubts. No problem at all.

Overall:
Definately i think that Toneport is killer and a must for homerecording and its also affordable if you want to go pro too, believe me. You have the power of the pro's in a little and inexpensive box.

Quality:
made of plastic?! but never had a problem with it

Sound:
A wide variety of sounds, however definitely for HOME recording... not the "proffessional tone" that they speak of... especially when dealing with distortion - which are definitely weak. the cleaner sounds, and acoustic sonds are great however!

What else would you expect from the makers of the revolutionary POD product family? TonePort even comes with a special Line 6 edition of Ableton Live so you can start making great sounding recordings as soon as you open the box!

GearBox
The included GearBox software controls TonePort and gives you a premium tone front end for all your recordings. Includes meticulously crafted models of premium tube studio preamps, vintage guitar and bass rigs, and sought after, personality-rich effects. This is the tone that pros rely on and only Line 6 provides. Now it comes to your desktop with TonePort.

GearBox is the Line 6 software that gives the TonePort UX1 and UX2 hardware interfaces world-class studio tone on the desktop. Built on the technological foundation of the studio-standard POD XT and Bass POD XT direct recording devices, GearBox provides a hardware-like, simple to understand and operate interface for dialing in the perfect tone every time.

GearBox's meticulously crafted recreations of a dream collection of 16 classic and modern guitar amplifiers, 5 must-have bass amp models, and 24 stompbox and studio effects capture the range of tone found on the best tracks ever recorded.
