This just blew my mind! Great sound quality, very nice preamps, inserts on all channels, monitoring on all channels. All of this and more for 105 euros!!! Amazing interface for beginners to semi-pros.
I recently added this interface to my studio setup and I cannot believe the results that it has produced. It was so easy to setup and integrate with my Mixcraft 8 Pro DAW, I am amazed at the quality of the recordings that I have produced. I had considered other high end and very expensive options but after reading reviews on this Behringer unit I opted to give it a try and I am so pleased I did so as I have saved ££££'s.
