Reviewed by Juan Manuel on B&H Photo Video

I have had many interfaces in the last 12 years and I am amazed at how bad this interface is. The headphones can not be routed freely, the outputs sometimes have a lower level than other times, what makes a nightmare to work with external hardware. I am very sorry to acquire this interface. The software Focus control it's a joke

Great

Reviewed by Danny Hauger Music on Guitar Center

Both units, brand new, failed to work consistently. Looks great, feels sturdy, shuts down and needs to be powered off and on frequently to work in my studio. Returned.
