"Great low cost demoing option"
zZounds Employee
Written by a current zZounds employee or former employee during the time of their employment.
While this doesn't sound as good as the stuff from MOTU, Apogee, and the like, I found it comparable to stuff from Tascam and Presonus. The low cost, bus power, 24 bit ability, size, and number of mic pres and outputs means it's great for a podcast or demos in your practice space. I have yet to try it with my phone, but apparently you can use it with your phone which is pretty incredible not having to bring your computer with you to record this stuff. I was not able to get it to work with other interfaces though.
