If you are into recording, and you want something with big specifications but at a price that you won't need to sell a kidney for, Steinberg UR22 is probably one of the best in it's class, it is very strongly built with an aluminium chassis which can stand a few knocks too, though throwing it across a room isn't what it was made for. As soon as you feel the box you know it's a quality product.

As regards it's functionality, it is what you would expect from gear from Steinberg. Also, as soon as you take delivery of the UR22 you can then download a copy of Cubase, the cut down version, I say cut down, but even the cut down version is enough to pull off some amazing performances. The Cubase that comes free with the interface comes with a basic (?!!!) Halion Sonic synth, that is packed with incredible sounds. And each sound can be edited and a well equipped effects processor is available to give the already incredible sounds even more depth live reverb, EQ Chorus, Flanger and loads more. PLUS you can also route the sounds into another effects processor that includes a killer amp simulator.

​

All in all, this is a unit that a whole heartedly recommend, perfect for a small to medium recording studio, you really just can't go wrong with this baby.
