Frequently Asked Questions
The USB interface is fine for simple podcasting, but expect some latency and limited input control compared to a dedicated audio interface.
The compressors are basic but can be helpful for taming unruly vocals, though they lack the transparency of more advanced units.
You can, but headroom is limited, so it's best suited for quieter performances or when monitor levels are kept relatively low.
