Open Box M-Audio AIR 192|4 USB C Audio Interface Level 1

It has never worked correctly for me. pops, crackles. ive tried everything online and nothing has worked. M-audio has one very old driver for it and doesnt respond to support requests. do NOT waste your money.

I used this audio interface for 3 months before it started having issues with the analog output. One of the outputs to the speakers would lose signal or not work at all. The usb-c to usb-c cable was faulty as well.

From my previous interface, the clarity and warmth this interface has is awesome!

Excellent interface. I use the it for monitoring post-production audio and music. The sound is excellent, both for the main outputs and the headphones. It feels sturdy. The knobs are large and easy to turn. Worked perfectly right out of the box on my iMac Pro running OS 10.14.6.; no drivers were necessary.

Ive spent a few days using it and I have to say that sound quality is amazing for the price. The knobs are intuitive and if you have difficulty with them, the short manual has a straight forward explanation for them. Set up is supposed to be straightforward as well, but there are some issues that made it very complicated. I had to set it up as my default audio output or else it wlouldnt work properly. The interface would also randomly go to sleep and it wouldnt output any sound at all, so listening to music was dreadful. To get it to stop going into sleep, go to the Control Pannel>Hardware and Sound> Power Options>Change power plan settings>Change advanced power settings>USB settings>USB selective suspend setting>Disable when Plugged in. Like I said, im loving the quality of the sound but the setup is painfully dumb. Some apps require you to change the advanced settings from 44kHz Studio quality to DVD quality in order to be compatible with certain programs, and I havent experienced this, but some people say that their devices are forgotten by their PCs everyday, so their routine requires them to disable and re enable the device everytime. Despite all that the audio from my mics is super clear, and this includes phantom power for those who use condenser mics. The guitar is eerily clear, to the point where I can clearly tell the difference between picks and their textures (I use a single coil EMG which dramatically increases clarity as well, so take the last statement with a grain of salt). The design is very intuitive and simple to understand. Build quality is OUTSTANDING with the knobs feeling sturdy with great resistance for fine tuning, and the body being made of aluminum and a hard plastic on top for the lables. The middle knob also has a really nice rubber grip around it which just adds to the premium feeling. In conclusion, Im in love with this device, but Im a little dissapointed at all the dumb workarounds necessary to get this to work predictably

This is my first DAW so I am barely scratching the surface of the Air 192/4's capability after only working with it for a few hours, but am already seeing it will more than satisfy my home studio needs!
