Hi mixmkr,
I am glad you did the short vid on this unit. I am loving mine big time. The reasons:
1. Very clean (no problem with mic gain)
2. Very good 0 latency monitoring EFX.
3. Very flexible 6 in/6 out controls.
4. Works well in Sonar X3, Studio One 2.6, Cubase AI and Elements, Cubasis and Auria (for iPad).
5. Allows you to record audio while capturing screens in Camtasia.
6. Is very solid.
7. Comes with Cubase AI. I bought Cubasis of $49.
8. Two headphone outs
9. It has a steel frame - very solid.
The sound is really superb due to the pro Yamaha mic pres. Some mics need the gain pushed hard but I compared specs to Focusrite and there is not much difference in gain structure at all.
Overall, the unit can't be beat for it's feature set, DAW compatibility (PC, Apple, and iPad), and clean sound.
The price is the best for a 6 in/out unit.
