85% found it compatible, but 15% experienced compatibility issues
This product might not work with all computers as it is not compatible with USB 3.0.
I found that the device was not compatible with my computer's USB 3.0 and above (3.1) plugs, causing bugs like audio device switch every second, Youtube videos crashing because of audio, mute recording, etc. When I tried it on USB 2.0, the device wasn't detected from their 'Universal Controller' software. It is outdated and not compatible with AMD CPU (mine is an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X). I returned it and will try another device.
I didn't realize there were different versions of the product. I thought I was getting the right one, but it didn't work with iOS and iPad. I had to buy another one for $50.
79% appreciated the variety of connectivity, but 21% found them limited
This audio interface connects to my PC/Mac via USB and was recognized by my Mac without any additional setup. It became the default input and output for audio.
The interface disconnects randomly and starts working again after some attempts. I changed the cable but it didn't work.
I am facing issues with recording using this interface in audacity. Whenever I hit record, my entire screen freezes up for about 10 seconds and will only start getting signal after a pickup in my microphone. This issue is really unreliable.
Periodically, the interface becomes unknown to my computer.

89% praised for its crisp and clear sound
When connecting an instrument through a 1/4 inch cable or a good quality XLR microphone, the sound quality is clear and accurate.
The preamps and XLR connectors provide higher clarity sound with less white noise and a lower noise floor compared to UM2.
The sound quality is very good with both the included mic and others plugged in.
The audio quality exceeded my expectations and provided crisp and detailed recordings.
