REVIEWS
Quality:
Made mostly of plastic so I'm really careful unplugging/plugging cables so as not to crack anything.

Sound:
I was a little disappointed in how harsh the sound was when recording direct, in particular vocals and acoustic guitar. You'll need some sort of pre- to warm it up. I'm using a 10 year old Digitech RP1 effects pedal, even on vocals, which makes a big difference.

Support:
Never had to deal with support.

Overall:
Overall, a great buy! Currently using it on a P4 2.4Ghz PC with WinXp. Make sure you follow the WinXP tweaking guidelines in the PDF on the CD.
