zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Best non-protools interface out there, period."

Sound: Sound quality is flawless. Very transparent sound and there's basic 3 band EQ. Mic preamps are good. Very clean sound. Feature: Packed with features. The fact it's a mixer, and its also an audio interface, and its also less than 300$. Features are of a basic mixer, but the firewire audio interface tops it all off. Ease of Use: It's a mixer, and a very simple mixer at that. Nothing complicated here. Ease of firewire/computer integration is also very easy. Quality: Well built. The knobs are a little bit too "smooth" like there isn't enough resistance against them. Besides that, its built like a rock. Value: BY FAR, BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK, out of any interface out there. there's USB interfaces that go for 200. Firewire interfaces usually start at around 500 and are usually around 1000$ for decent ones. For 300$ you get a mixer, and a firewire interface. Manufacturer Support: never had to use it The Wow Factor: It makes any setup extremely versatile. Works will with PC and Mac. Design is basic, nothing spectacular but its definitely not a pain to the eye. Overall: Best non-protools interface out there, period.
