However, because it's a 2x2 interface, the inputs need to be set in PodFarm, which can be confusing to find at first, so make sure you have the instructions on hand!

It's very easy to set up, simply install the software and drivers, plug it in and you're set to record. I've transported it around and thrown it in my bag and it's absolutely fine. However, I've used the interface for several months now and it doesn't have a mark on it. The interface itself is very light, and is made out of a heavy duty plastic, which at first makes you question the quality of it. The dials which light up and can be reassigned to show several different things look great too. It looks really nice and the layout of the controls is really convenient. The quality of the recordings itself are really good, and when compared to my friends Scarlett 2i2, we found the quality of the sound was even better (in our opinion). It has the most features of any interface in the price range, and also comes with some great software (PodFarm, Reason limited etc).
I bought this to use in my home studio, to record my band and a couple of my friends band's. It's okay for home to record some demos but definitely not for something serious.

Overall, I would recommend it because the ratio between price and quality is still good but not for professional recording use. The screws are around the 1/4" jacks, so you can untighten them and then rewire the USB connector on the printed circuit board. This interface CAN be opened and fixed even if it doesn't look like this. So if anyone else faces the same problem: It may happened only to me but the USB connector broke after few months of usage. Pre-amps are okay, I love the VU meters, it's literally one of the most useful things of the good old analogue days, so you actually see what's going on without having thousands windows opened in your DAW. The only drawback (but it makes sense) of the software is that it doesn't work with other interfaces. So if you put some time in it, you get a good result. So I used it as a VST, put it on one channel in my DAW, put EQ, compressor and high-pass filter (when needed) on it and I got decent sound that was comparable with previously mentioned programs. Maybe it's not Guitar Rig/Amplitube (it depends what you prefer) but when you find out few tricks you get a decent sound. It works as a standalone program or as a VST. Software that comes with it is quite nice. Any love for Line 6 Pod Farm software Downloaded PF platinum the other day with a filesharing program and have been experimenting with it, pretty interesting stuff It's mainly made for guitar/bass amp/cab simulation but it also has a huge pedal/effect selection as well as a few preamps and other useful things. When I bought this interface, my main intention was to get something to rehearse in the apartment during the night and to record ideas at the same time.
