Pros & Cons
Pros
These mic pres are some of the best you can buy without spending hundreds more per channel. The converters are great, especially if you're switching from something like a focusrite 2i2. It is far warmer and is noticeably more distinct than through my ... Read More
Cons
The warranty is over. I tried my trusty printer cable. Now i have a $699 paperweight that picks up alien mic / line-in signals but won't let me listen to them.
If it doesn't work and * my ears, then it's unusable. Please do yourself a favor and steer far away. It sounds good, but in my opinion, should not be trusted.
Highlights
Quality
The sound quality is excellent and the simplicity of the interface is exactly what is needed without a lot of unnecessary stuff
More importantly the sound quality is up to par with most of your higher end gear
I ended up with the apollo which is way better in every way but of course 400 more too
If not will grudgingly return as i really like this product
Price
Sound quality for the price is unparalleled
Pros the preamps are unbelievably clean for the price youre paying
Competitiveness
All in all if youre looking to upgrade from something like a 2i2 the id22 wont dissapoint you

My other units didnt do this so its not perfectly timed to other units if you are converting from spdif to adatin the end id say that for 100 less the focusrite 2pre maybe be a solid buy but it had worse latency despite being thunderbolt
