I've spent a couple of months trying to find the best audio interface you can get in less than 400$, the Fast-track pro had weak preamps,The Ua-25ex was limited hardware wise, the audiofire 4 had too little outputs, same thing with the motu Microbook, all were either limited, broken or untrustworthy; Then I found focusrite...
If I could define this product in a couple of words I would probably say "Best Cheap Audio Interface Ever."
Even with it's low price you get a lot of features, 14 inputs (4 mecnical,8 ADAT 2 S/pdif), DAW Returns, and even a spared output mix.
The only thing that did disappoint me is that outs 3 and 4 are a mirror copy of the headphones on the front, meaning that you are limited to 4 output if you want to use headphones for a different mix combo.
Luckily tough, this blends perfect with my audio setup, so I'm not pissed off :)
I've tried 4 other interfaces and even recorded through what was supposed to be a top end interface. My Tenor Sax is not easily reproduced. I've played through $1,500 mics with a Pre Amp and A/D's that didn't reproduce my Sax very well. It doesn't matter what mic you have unless your playing through good Pre's and A/D converters. I play through a $100 Samsom Mic with the Focusrite interface and it blows away the expensive Mics with a cheap Pre. Buy a good pre with good A/D's and everything sounds good.
i've had 5 focusrite interfaces because i dug the first one they made
to me focusrite firewire interfaces are the worst as far as working
continuously and please don't make the mistake of disconnecting then u blow the whole thing up what a waste i have the line 6 ux8 audio interface no problems check it out
