I like everything, the price and the quality are both ok.

A little bit of my personal opinion about the product BEHRINGER Audio Interface 1 Channel UM2. An excellent starter card with fairly wide functionality. Suitable for voice recording for video or vocals, acoustic guitar. Monitoring latency is minimal. Recommend for undemanding initial entry at home. It can give quite good results with straight hands and post-processing. Haven’t seen better for this price.

Pros
  • The interface is well suited for recording voice from inexpensive and undemanding microphones, including condenser ones. The volume reserve is more than enough, the sensitivity is also pleasing. No pronounced background was detected in the microphone input. Runs natively on Mac OS. There is phantom power and monitor outputs.
Cons
  • Background when connecting an instrumental input. It is not noticeable for recording an acoustic guitar, but when used with an electric guitar on overloads, the background already appears. Guitar processors with a built-in audio interface give the best results. Somewhat flimsy potentiometers.

It was a reasonable purchase, will order more.

A few words about my personal use of the product BEHRINGER Audio Interface 1 Channel UM2. In fact, it seems to me that there are more problems than profit. The issue with the drivers is solved really in a minute. In fact, they should level the problem of noise and sound distortion, but both still appear from time to time. The solution is to get / insert the cord. It would be desirable, of course, more stable work.

Pros
  • - Price (whatever one may say, you will not find cheaper analogues)
Cons
  • - There is no normal support (there are no drivers on the official website, but they google for a minute, they work somehow doubtfully) - Noisy (sometimes a lot)

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

In fact, I was very afraid to take it. I needed to record a voice for a video, but how much was thrown in the reviews. Like, it makes noise like a tank, the drivers are terrible, it fails as soon as you get it out of the box, and so on. It started up right away without drivers, there is no noise, and it doesn’t seem to have exploded yet. True, I had to buy a surge protector. If you want, like me - to record vocals - your choice, if you want to play the guitar - it's better to buy UMC22, it…

Pros
  • Cheap, with great functionality and good quality, extremely convenient regulators
Cons
  • The card definitely has problems with "pickup". You do not need to google what it is, I will write everything here. This is when there is high-frequency interference in the house's electrical network, which this device perfectly catches and sends to your headphones. Therefore, do not be surprised if you hear voices - this is a radio or a TV. This is solved by purchasing a special extension cord with a surge protector that dampens noise (costs 1000-1500)

The best product, from those that I have viewed, I advise everyone!

The card is compact and easy to take with you. It is not entirely clear why the obsolete usb B connector is installed, it would be more logical to use micro usb. Contrary to all the reviews, it started up on my win10 without problems, installed the drivers using the links from the reviews, picked up the device in FL Studio - the flight was normal. The sound from the line input is clear, without extraneous noise. The output sound is noticeably better than the laptop's built-in sound card. Great…

Pros
  • Dimensions, easy connection, sound quality, FL Studio compatibility
Cons
  • No stereo input, usb B connection

Not quite what I wanted, but mostly okay.

The sound on the exhaust is good, but it turned out to be so noisy that you can’ It will be possible to play only if the drive is not heavily loaded on the virtual amp and noise reduction is used.

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Medium quality, especially for that kind of money.

Despite the voluminous disadvantages section, I still recommend this sound card if you are only going to use it to provide phantom power to your condenser microphone, as I did. Different pros: Feedback from the position of an amateur: phantom power works, the sound does not seem to spoil Cons below: The output from the sound card driver is a stereo signal, which is composed as follows: the sound from the first line goes to the left channel, this is very inconvenient, and I only use a microphone

The purchase is a failure, very unhappy.

In general, I needed any sound system to stick in just to get a guitar, but this particular one just doesn’t fit because of its hellish background, so it’s better to save up a couple of thousand and buy another Got pros: Well, for such a price, 3 inputs, monitoring and phantom power, in principle, are cool Has some cons: The dog itself is making noise, the usual pista thread is not noticeable, but here you hang the distortion and the pipe, God forbid, plus the frail plastic case

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

Be sure to install drivers! If you use the standard drivers from Windows, then periodically you will hear crackling / stuttering / hissing! actual and probably final drivers are called BEHRINGER 2902 2.8.40 Has some pros: one of the cheapest external cards to try capacitor micros for example Its cons: ! ATTENTION FOR ALL WHO DOES NOT WORK SOUND OR MICRO WHEN INSTALLING DRIVERS, YOU SHOULD SET THE SAME SAMPLING PURITY FOR MICRO AND SPEAKERS ! (and then he himself suffered with each installation…

The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

Some pros: Good clear sound after installing the drivers recommended below. (It remains to find material on how to set it up in a normal way 🎶). Some cons: In theory, the diode next to the microphone output should be on when it is connected, but I have silence there.

The right product for me, there were no problems.

Simple connection, the only thing was to buy tulips and an adapter from 6.3 to 3.5 I have a BM800 since this is USB, I am satisfied with the device, especially for this money, I took it at a discount for 2600

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Pros below: If the computer is normal, then you can safely load the guitar rig to wind up the desired guitar sound with minimal delays. Cons below: When using guitar pedals, the card is notably overloaded, even with a low input signal detuning, but the sound at the output goes without strong distortion.
