M-AudioM-Track Solo – USB Audio Interface for Recording, Streaming and Podcasting with XLR, Line and DI Inputs, Plus a Software Suite Included

People cry over this but it's actually really good. No it's not like the expensive alternatives... Obviously... But for what you're paying it's 100% recordable and produced suitable demos.I recorded a demo on this recently and it turned out great for just a demo. Did the job nicely. Easy to use. Light weight, sml, portable, nice design.Sound quality with my e906, a fender Amp and a fender jazzmaster vintera 62 and some reverb, distortion, flange, chorus and delay sounded awesome.People gna cry because it isn't a focusrite, nor is it £200 like a focusrite... What do you expect lol... Honestly, if you're just doing demo work, ideas, starting out at recording etc. It's totally usable.I'd you're beyond that and wanting to lay proper tracks down to release to spotify, focusrite is recommended obviously.But ignore the haters if this is your budget you won't be disappointed I wasn't and I have the budget for the focusrite, which i do own, but I had to lay a track down quick in the usa and so used this at $40 and was perfect for what I needed it for.

Got for a friend, was able to use myself and worked fine and he is still using. Was a little hard to setup.

Simple and usefull

I use this to connect my guitar to PC and Mac, then I respectively use Guitar Rig 6 and GarageBand for effects. After installing drivers from M-Audio site, I connect my guitar to the Instrument input (one with Line/Guitar icon) and I choose guitar from the switch. I then connect the USB output to a PC. Also connected my PC Speakers to the RCA outputs on the back (RCA cable not included). When I run Guitar Rig 6, I go to settings, choose ASIO as device, then M-Track Solo. On the Guitar Rig UI, I choose the R input, since the L input is microphone with this device. This setup effectively turns my PC into guitar amp + effects. I can get low latency output from my speakers and also from headphone output.For PC, if you want to hear output from PC speakers instead, you have to download asio4all drivers (free) from internet and install. Then you can use multiple devices for input output. In Mac, Garage Band has this option out of the box.Lastly, I measured the latency between direct input and output for the device by connecting output directly to output with a cable and used RTL Utility (free software) to measure the latency around 10-12 ms which is good enough for me.Two slightly annoying things for me:- Would be good to have an On/Off button. When I dont use the device, it makes a very low humming voice from speakers and only way to stop it is to disconnect device from PC or remove guitar input.- Would be good to enable/disable/control volume of headphone and RCA output separately. When I need to use headphones at night, I need to disconnect RCA cable, otherwise sound also comes from speakers.

Fantastic bit of kit, I’m using it with cakewalk and band lab. No issues. Works equally as well with microphone, keyboard, guitar and I can even push my second computers audio through it . Great support website with tons of software to complement the device.

Sometimes it would work and other times it wouldn't detect an input from my microphone, I bought a new interface from native instruments and haven't had a problem, before that the audio quality was good though

Cheap and cheerful but surprisingly good features. Perfect for connecting a guitar and/or mic to you a computer to record from. Works seamlessly with my iMac and GarageBand without the need for drivers! Small and lightweight so easy to pack and carry with you. Very handy bit of kit.

Compatible and good quality
