The package of goodies is very nice. The main unit is serviceable but not great. If you want a nice starter setup this package is a real bargain. If you want to do something serious, get a Scarlett 2i2!

I need more time to review. It came well package and feels nice. I just haven’t had time to work with it.

This pack will get somebody up and running for livestreaming or recording audio. You get an audio interface, a microphone, ear pods, and all the cables you would need.The mic is kind of cheap, but does sound clean. The cables are okay quality too. But the interface itself is actually really good. It has EQ, and is just as good as any other plug and play box I've had, including big, expensive name brands.At the current price point, I would suggest this set up to just about anybody from beginners to professionals wanting an extra interface to throw in their go-bags. I tested on both Mac and PC with great results and think it is a real winner.

Bought this as an audio interface for my macbook to record guitar via mic. The mic is pretty good for the price! Definitely punches above its price point. The audio interface itself works great and is easy to use.

For budget recording needs, this can get the job done. The audio interface has good harmonic distortion and low noise. The headphone amp had enough volume for my 40ohm headphones. There is no volume control for the stereo out for you studio monitors, so you'll need to make sure you have a volume control either on your speakers, or between the audio interface and your speakers.The outputs on my interface may have some bad capacitors or something. Mine did not measure 20-20khz within 0.5dB. However, for most acoustic stuff, it measured fine. Basically, 45hz was -3dB (slightly reduced volume) on the outputs. The lowest frequency on a 4 string bass guitar is about 40hz, so it's not that bad. Usually just synths go below 40hz. Your speakers probably can't produce under 40hz, even if you have a subwoofer, so no loss there. If the loss under 40hz is a design issue, you would probably only be able to notice with headphones, if you noticed it at all. So even with my audio interface's out of spec frequency response, this thing seems fully capable for podcast editing, singing, acoustic or electric guitar recording, and music listening.I did do my output measurements after flattening out the box's EQ. "This thing has an EQ?" Yes. Yes it does. You can adjust the tone of the audio interface to your taste - once you download their driver/app. The EQ was a surprising addition for such a cheap interface. However, the EQ is routed to both the headphone and stereo outputs, so you can't EQ those individually or EQ just one output. Still, for the price ($70 end of 2024), that's an impressive addition.The mic sounded pretty good to me. It certainly seems usable. I am impressed that it actually has a 1" large diaphragm capsule in it. I think it has a little bit of pleasant coloring adding in some harmonics. Some high end gear is so clean that we grab something old or distorted just to get some character. I think this mic has enough character to make things sound a little fuller/richer.The mic stand, mic clip, and cables all seem good quality. I haven't tested the USB cables for plugging this thing into a phone. The mic cable measures good with low enough capacitance (high capacitance cables can reduce high frequencies, what we usually describe as air or sheen). The longer the XLR cable, more more important it is to be low capacitance. This cable, as short as it is, won't degrade the tone at all and needs no upgrade. Plus it looks cooler than your normal boring black cables.This thing has a plastic shell - pro grade audio equipment usually have metal shells because of radio waves and such. The metal catches any wifi, cell, or radio signals and keep it from passing into the sensitive mic circuit. So, maybe don't put your phone on top of this or you might hear some weird digital sounds. Thankfully, I didn't notice any issues until I purposefully set my phone on top to see what would happen - then I got some weird digital noises added in to my mic signal. So don't put your phone on top of the box and you should be good to go!All in all, I'm quite impressed. This whole kit is incredibly cheap. An audio interface with EQ, a large diaphragm microphone, and a little desk mic stand is pretty impressive! Once again, about $70 in 2024.While my box does have some frequency response quirks and less flexible EQ routing, I could record and mix a podcast or acoustic mix on here. Name brand budget "pro" stuffs would probably be at least twice the price for an audio interface and mic.

I bought this because I am doing a podcast and it is exactly what I needed! What's cool about this is that it has the headphone input on the front which you can pick which source it'll come from, so you can have it be the input sound from the mics or the computer sound. I also love that it has multi inputs on it, however you will need adapters if you don't have the right ones, so just double check about that. Also, I didn't know it came with wires and a whole microphone which is awesome! The mic works great as does the wires, I tested them all out. I am deeply impressed with this and it seems like a great value for the price!

Looking for a small but effective way to connect your guitar/instrument and a mic to your computer? This is a good choice. I wanted to be able to connect my guitar and mic to my PC in order to take advantage of some sound effects and to record. I also wanted the ability to use headphones to monitor in the same device. This interface checks all of the boxes.Upon unpacking, I found the USB interface, USB C cable to connect to your computer, a microphone, and various connection cables. This is a great start. I read the directions, connected the interface to my computer, and downloaded the software as directed. After installing the software, I opened my DAW and found the device as an available input and output.Without boring you with the details, I will say that everything worked perfectly. I was able to monitor what I was playing, utilize the computer program sound effects, and even connect to an audio output (amplifier). This is exactly what I needed; simple and just works.
