Two line-level inputs on balanced 1/4 in. TRS jacks are included, and are switchable to guitar-level for direct instrument recording into your computer. The US-122 also provides a dedicated control for adjustable zero-latency direct monitoring, providing a sonically pure reference point before entering DAW processing.

REVIEWS
Feature:
The version of Cubasis this comes with is cut down and simplified, but boy is it useful. It has great effects all ready to use. Just a few clicks and you've got grrrreat reverb, delay, chorus, or other effects. The mixer allows you to adjust 2 frequency levels per channel, and one effect. You will be amazed at how much you can change by adding some gain at or cutting some out at any frequency.

Quality:
This thing is durable, looks great, is extremely portable and lightweight. I cant complain here at all.

Value:
Awesome value for what you get. Da best!

Desirability:
Its just plain awesome.

Sound:
This things records great with the adjustable input gain levels. Every you gotta adjust on the usb interface and in the software a lot to avoid sound distortion, but its really easy and even when the levels are in the red, the sound doesnt distort much.

Overall:
I think i will be using this for a while, its a great product. I strongly reccomend this to any rising musician with a desire to make some really good ameture recordings. I have worked with a Zoom mrs somethingerother and it was really hard to use, had bad effects, bad sound quality, and NO EASE of use. This is your best bet for a cheap recording solution. one thing: HAVE A GOOD COMPUTER. I have a dell Pentium 4 and it works really well.
