What we liked
- + Two MAX-HD mic preamps with +75 dB of gain, described as transparent and low noise
- + Auto Gain button sets levels for mics and instruments, handy for hosts who are not engineers
- + Studio One Pro perpetual license included, plus preamp control from the Universal Control app
Trade-offs
- - Two mic preamps only, so it will not grow with a show that adds a third or fourth host
- - Costs more than entry-level two-input interfaces that cover basic podcast recording
