Hi,
I am looking for a relatively cheap, good sounding, audio interface and have read mostly good things about the Steinberg UR22.
I wanted to ask people here:
- Would you recommend this unit, and if not, why not?
More specifically,
- A minority of the reviews that I have read say that the UR22 cannot record guitars well (that it creates peak levels immediately): what has your experience been when recording electric guitar with the UR22?
My requirements for an audio interface are:
1. Under $300 (a must)
2. Preferably 196 kHz, but willing to go to 96 kHz
3. MIDI capable (a must)
4. Harware mixing for balancing recorded (output) and input signals - cannot stand using software for this (a must)
5. Mute switch for cutting output signal to monitors (not essential, but it would be nice)
6. Portable (a must)
7. Runs off USB bus power (not essential, but nice)
8. Works with Mac as well as PC (a must)
I have also been looking at the Roland Duo-Capture EX, which, from the reviews, sounds excellent, but which (unbelievably nowadays) does not have a mute switch for the audio monitors.
Any advice is gratefully appreciated.
