"Good Sound if you don’t need usb"

Overall:

(see rating details)

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.

Maybe it was something wrong with my Mac, but it would be the first time...this sound AWFUL through usb. I have used m-audio and presonus before with great sound. After several years of not recording, I decided to dabble again. I didn’t want to spend a lot of money, but KNEW I wanted an actual board this time. I should have gone a different route. This will get moved to only being used for my wife’s DJ gigs. Again, great sound with speakers, just not good at all as interface.
