Nice conversion, nice preamps
Great SNR and great accuracy and headroom, especially considering this thing runs off bus power. Ergonomically super fun to use. Wish it had midi i/o.

Entry level box
Great quality and build as you would expect from Universal Audio.
Since this is one of their entry-level interfaces, you can't pile on the heavier plugins.
The only negative for me was the exclusion of a Thunderbolt cable - which will add an additional $50 investment.

Problèmes avec Logic pro
Le produit est excellent mais j'ai des problèmes avec Logic pro. L'enregistrement s'arrête au hasard et reprend du début. Il y a certains sons de craquements aussi mais c'est peut-être un problème qu'il est possible de régler avec Universal audio.

ok if your looking for a 16 tracks audio interface its not going to happen with arrow as you already know...but for a macbook pro owner even with i5 ...who want top notch recording quality in a 2 inputs format...here u go...i was more into it for the
Read morethunderbolt3 interface than the plugins ...but soon as you try the unison plugs man it is serious stuff...it has only 1 dsp chip..but with bus powered you cant ask for too much ....and for the tracking im doing ..mostly 2 guitars 2 vocals 1 bass and THE DRUMS (wich i record with2 mics beleive it or not )...im using 3-4 top notch uad-2 plugins at the entry..and maybe a bit more on the mix the rest is powered by logic pro x..which are good...anyways i love my mini system it kills around here in sound quality and im really damn proud of it
