Upgraded after my Firestudio Mobile bit the dust. This is a great unit for someone that does not have a permanent studio (although it can be synced with other units to form a larger interface) and does a lot of their recording on the fly. If you happen to run a jam or are an open mic host and you want to start offering low-cost recording options, this should work well. Additionally, if you want to run this in a live setup in addition to recording, you can assign several different pairs of mixes to route to speakers, with or without built-in FX from the interface. To top it all off, you can ditch the computer completely and run this as a standalone mixer. I have not spent too much time with the available program CueMix, but it looks to be a competent PC/Mac program with some useful tools for both recording and live sound options. I am using an older system with a firewire port (Mid 2009 MacBook Pro) and these two work seamlessly together.

easy to use and easy to take from gig to gig. I like the 10 separate inputs and 14 separate outputs for any applications. 7 band eq with plenty of range.

MOTU makes some of the best interfaces for the money. What sets this unit apart is its ability to be a home or live piece. The audio converters are top notch and its both MAC and PC compatible. Its the best sounding compact unit that'll fit in your backpack. When using it live, I just run the line outs from my board into the unit and capture everything just like in my home studio. The other great feature is the front input so I can run my guitar directly in without having to reach around back. This was a hands on review by Keith @ Sam Ash Raleigh.

Lots of options and new features. I would recommend to a friend! One of the best features is the fact that you have onboard processing of all effects and even a digital mixing section that allows you to process all your tracks with zero latency.

Having an older computer that still has firewire, I was a little limited in what I could use as far as modern interfaces. I've always been a fan of MOTU stuff, always great quality and seems to work well with most softwares, so I gave this one a try. It's got everything I need, the preamps are top quality, and most importantly it still works with all my gear! Go MOTU or go home!

With 10 ins and 14 outs this interface should meet all needs. Can be used as an interface or mixer with built in effects. This is a hands on review from Justin at Sam Ash Cincinnati.
