Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a board that you take out of the box, plug the USB in, and you are recording in minutes. The quality is amazing. You will be very happy you spent the extra money, ESPECIALLY for the USB portion. If you own a Mac, it is amazingly simple and trouble free. A great buy at any price for the small home studio.

What about the sound quality? Our chief designer, Mike Griffin, has been at the forefront of audio innovation for many years and has developed the designs for our spectacularly successful MixWizard and GL series professional live mixers. Mike is always striving to produce the best possible sound for our mixers, and for ZED has produced the ‘DuoPre\', a mic preamplifier which sounds as sweet as a nut, as pure as the driven snow. The DuoPre combines an optimized line input circuit together with the microphone preamp circuit so that it will not color or distort your sound, will give you lots of headroom, and give you a truly professional feel.
