This device was exactly what i was looking for to record multiple tracks away from the computer. It sounds great, has a good amount of inputs and features, and the ability to work with phone headset input is very nice for sharing mixes and jams over zoom, skype, twitch, etc. Lire plus
The onboard effects are nice and subtle, and the workflow is similar enough to my tascam portastudio dp008 that i could get started pretty quickly. i have a lot to learn still, but expect that this will be the heart of my home studio from now on.
drawbacks are:
- the midi implementation - can only export clock and song position. It can also allow it to pass thru, but i would have liked to set the devices click/metronome from external gear.
- bluetooth implementation: only works as a receiver, like a speaker, and not a emitter/receiver, like a headset. maybe more difficult to implement than i think, but that seems like a shortsighted choice
