Frequently Asked Questions

While functional, the preamp isn't as clean or powerful as more expensive options; expect some hiss at higher gain, especially with ribbon mics.
Technically yes, but you'll need to use a DI box or microphone technique to capture a stereo image, as it only has one input.
It's primarily for power and convenience, but USB-C generally offers slightly more stable power delivery compared to USB-A, which can be beneficial for consistent operation.
