      @@mnmleung Hi, it's fine now. I got to the bottom of the issue. I'd migrated my OS to a new SSD just before buying the UR22C and for some reason it affected my USB driver. I re -installed the USB driver for my motherboard and all was good. I'm actually going to delete my original comments as with hindsight it was a little unfair!

    Hands down the best review I have seen I years. 100% thorough. I just wish that all the audio interface manufacturers could send you all their products for review and pay you for doing so. You could then review all interfaces on the market. High end as well as the cheaper models. I am in the marked for a new interface so a test of USB 3 vs Thunderbolt 2 for RME, UA, Antelope, Presonus and driver support etc would be much appreciated. Especially low end vs High end interface latency. Well done! Keep up the good work:)

Some sites have 25th August, but other companies have put it back to sept 25th. Evo turned up today and I am very happy. Originally was going to sell it as soon as motu turns up but I think it'll end up in my laptop bag. Keep it up. Much appreciated.

    Watched your video before picking one of these up today... was really torn between it and the 2i2, in moving away from a dedicated mixing console and PCI sound card. Have to say though, I am really impressed with how well it performs. Using my Shure SRH440's (44 ohm) the phones volume was just to the left of 12 o'clock, and the noise floor was dead silent between audio passages on playback. Plenty powerful enough for an SM57 without a Cloudlifter, but it did round things out nicely when added and let me turn the gain down a bit too. Love your content - thank you!

    Hi Julian. Another great video and production. The 32Bit may be FP within compatible software, although it seems odd that you don’t see it in the ASIO control panel. I’ve had certain interfaces that show up as 32FP with Nuendo but not in other ASIO compliant software. It will, as you’ve said, at least operate internally at 32Bit. Which will really help with summing and rounding things off for anything that may utilise its hardware (presumably a DSP). Again, great video. Cheers, Dave.
