Review: It works well. - It works well
Review: Check the price - This is a good unit. I paid £399 for it here, though - check the best prices, even on desertcart. I woz careless. Never mind, it gives good results, although powering through the micro-USB with a power bank is recommended when phantom power mics are added. I was getting buzzing on one of the XLR inputs when I tried USB power through a mains USB wall-wart, but the power bank gave no such problems. I have tried it successfully with 6 condenser microphones connected through the ports in addition to the on-board XY pair. The 4-port extension which can replace the XY Zoom mics also appears to work well.
