  • Good Interface for the money, with some minor quirks

    YAY! More inputs! That's one reason I upgraded to the 1810c. It simply has more inputs than my Scarlett 2i2. That, and that Scarlett had some weird glitches that came along with it. Nonetheless, Presonus did a nice job on this one, and with some tweaks it would be perfect. The Headphone jack on the back of the interface is a little annoying. It's also got a little bit more latency (like a couple ms more) than I was used to with my Focusrite, so I had to tweak some settings in FL Studio to lower the latency. It also has a little bit bigger of a footprint than your 2i2's and single or double input audio interfaces, so clear some desk space for this guy. All in all, I think it will work well in my home studio once I get adjusted to it. Another thing the note: the audio quality is really pristine. I'm not sure if it was the preamp's on my older interface or the headphone output, but I'm already noticing a pretty sizable difference in audio quality. Presonus did a nice job there.

  • I love this audio card to death

    As a start up dj/musician I have been looking and looking for the best equipment to record my vocals/synths/drum machines, etc. and I have found that this audio card is one of my favorites. The versatility of its use's (whether it'd be the 4 outputs/inputs, the power of its internal processes, etc) makes it a great addition to my home studio. I only wish there weren't so many wires to power it and I wish it would be a bit smaller as one of my studio monitor has to sit on top of it, but I don't care, I love it.
