Highlights
Quality
Made by yamahasteinberg i love all things yamaha and this certainly stays true with the quality ive come to expect from yamaha products
The sound quality is great it powers my condenser mic with its built in phantom power very well
The sound quality is not very much sharp as expected
The build quality is great all of the components works very well
Price
Perfectly and at a very interesting price
Low cost very sturdy and easy to setup
Having a background in professional studio recording and sessions i had my doubts not about the brand name but the price point
Packaging/appearance
This worked right out of the box on a brand new m1 mac running big sur
Competitiveness
48v phantm power and enough gain for an sm7b
Then bought a presonus audiobox usb 96 when i had a new recording project and i did not work as supposed
I have the unit working at under 5ms latency on a corei5 system

I had many more problems installing the copy of cubase ai 10 that comes with the interface which required me to install of multiple download managers figure out that the packaged elicence manager is so out of date that it doesnt have the same name as the ones in the instructions that steinberg provides leading to me downloading updated one from steinberg and then once i had done that the manager will not accept your activation code because you need to launch cubase close the licence manager enter you code and then reinstall cubase

If this description sounds confusing than its an accurate representation of the experience of trying to activate this licence it took me multiple attempts at a couple of hours a pop to figure out exactly what the problems were

The steinberg ur12 is the most compatable audio interface in my opinion with a control panel app to adjust the driver

There is some criticism about preamp noise from this unit but i havent noticed and i suspect it involves upper level frequency response that the human ear cant discern anyway
