Experience w/product: I have used it
Reviewer's Background: 18 years of playing guitar with dfferent bands
Reviewer's Play Style: Rock, Jazz Rock
Bought mine 6 mos. ago because of numerous good comments from cakewalk forums. I use this just for recording the whole band minus vocals(for editing purpose), 2 channels for drums, 2 channels for bass/lead guitar. I'm planning to buy an Echo Product again.Probably Audiofire 12 sooner.It's just i can't change what to output through headphone.
